BIO Micro-Current technology works by generating a bio-electrical response within the treated tissues. This response is triggered as a result of a micro-current field being generated between the treatment poles. This filed triggers the following effects within the dermal tissues:- Promotes increased metabolic processing to improve the health and vitality of the cells. Generates heat within the tissues, causing existing collagen tissues to shrink, providing an immediate tightening and plumping effect. Old, fibrous collagen is denatured and broken down by the body. Fibroblasts (the cells that create new collagen) are stimulated to create new, fresh, supple collagen. Stimulates improved blood circulation within the micro-vascular tissues around the eyes, improving cell permeability and moisture absorption, making the skin feel smooth and more elastic. Exercises the small muscles around the eyes through micro-triggering of the muscles. This stimulates strengthening of the muscle fibres resulting in a firmer muscular structure around the eyes

MEDIK8 TITANIUM DERMAROLLER SKIN NEEDLINGDermaroller therapy can significantly improve the appearance of:• Facial and décolletage lines and winkles• Lack of skin firmness and elasticity• Scarring• Acne and chicken pox scars• Enlarged pores• Sun damage and age spots• Under-eye bags The concept of Dermaroller therapy, also known as skin needling is based on the skins natural ability to repair itself whenever it encounters physical damage such as cuts, burns and other abrasions. Immediately after an injury occurs to the skin, our body reuses the damaged collagen and elastin fibres as well as other damaged skin components to produce new healthy ones. Before your procedure commences a topical anaesthetic will be applied to your skin to ensure your comfort. After your skin is numbed, your Aesthetician will gently roll the Titanium Dermaroller over your skin to puncture the outermost layers of the skin and create minuscule sub-cutaneous injuries. These microscopic wounds stimulate new collagen deposition which may last for up to a year. Immediately after your Dermaroller procedure you will look as though you have moderate sunburn and your skin may feel warm and tighter than usual. This will start to subside after two hours and will normally recover on the same day with only slight redness the following day. A course of three Dermaroller sessions, at 6-8 week intervals, is usually recommended to achieve optimum results. However you will notice great skin improvement after just one treatment.
