Microneedling (Skin Needling) Training

Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) involves using fine needles to create hundreds of tiny, invisible puncture wounds in the top layer of skin.

This causes an inflammatory response in the skin which stimulates collagen regeneration in the dermis. As a result, microneedling treatment reduces fine and deep wrinkles, repairs visible scars, reverses sun damage and pigmentation, helps aging skin and reduces the appearance of large pores.  We use the SkinPen precision device- the First FDA-Cleared Microneedling device in the world.

There are no prerequisites to attend our courses. In the state of Minnesota, you are required to have a medical director directing your medical procedures such as: medical grade lasers, skin needling (deeper than epidermis), body contour, fibroblast plasma, medical grade peel, injections, etc. In Minnesota, they do not require a medical director to be on-site but you must have one to oversee the medical services.

If you are an Advanced Practice Esthetician, you can only perform the regulated services (By the Board of Cosmetology BCE) such as: microneedling (within the epidermis), plasma, galvanic, microdermabrasion, lower grade peels, etc.

These services are regulated under the board of cosmetology. You do not need to have a medical director but you will need to have an Advanced Esthetic License (1100 hours of training).
