Collagen Induction Therapy is fast becoming
the anti-ageing treatment of choice to provide a more natural appearance without the need for chemicals, toxins or going 'under
the surgeon's scalpel'!

Now, if you thought that having your faced needle-rolled with
that roller over there on the right would hurt, you can put your mind at rest, because Alison uses 'topical anaesthetics'
(that's anaesthetics applied to the surface of the skin), so any discomfort is minimal! Allowing time for the anaesthetics
to work, your whole treatment will take about 1 hour, with 'down-time' being minimal. Immediately after the treatment
your skin may go pink, not unlike having been sitting in the sun! Some people go straight back to work.
Once the anaesthetic has taken effect (approx 30 mins) the area
to be treated is rolled. The roller creates thousands of 'micro-wounds' which stay open for about 24 hours. During
that time, your skin is able to absorb upto 400% more of the nutrient serum that is applied than normal.This serum is enriched
in vitamins A, C & E, precisely what your skin needs! The second effect of this treatment is the thousands of 'micro-wounds'
help to kick start your own natural healing process. Together with the nutrient serums, your body will start to create more
collagen and elastin, plumping up your skin, restoring elasticity and helping you to 'grow out of your own wrinkles'!
It's not an overnight miracle treatment. The process is gradual, and after a course of treatments, the results
can continue to last for upto 12 months, unlike botox or other fillers.
Collagen Induction Therapy is great if
you have
- Fine lines or wrinkles
- Lax or crepe-like skin
- Acne scars
- Visible capillaries
- Stretch marks or cellulite
Collagen Induction Therapy can safely be used around the eyes, and
can also be safely repeated at monthly intervals as your epidermis becomes thicker and not thinner, which happens with dermabrasion
procedures. There are no side-effects, such as sensitivity to the sun.
