PhiLings Microneedling
WHAT IS PHILINGS?
PhiLings is a common name for all cosmetic treatments of PhiAcademy, including: Microneedling and Phi-Ion (Plasma therapy.) These can be done in combination or separately, depending on the indications for the treatment.
MICRONEEDLING
Before describing the process of Microneedling, first we must explain why it is important.
The skin is the largest organ in our body but it is at the bottom of the priority list when it comes to the distribution of nourishing ingredients. Tissue regeneration and vitality maintenance are far more important for internal organs therefore, it is very important to physically stimulate regeneration of the skin. Each micro-injury that is formed on the skin actually sends a message to the brain that it is necessary to start the natural regeneration process in that very spot. This improves the collagen producing process greatly.
The Microneedling procedure is aimed at stimulating Micro-circulation and the natural processes of collagen production and regeneration. Micro-punctures are being inflicted by hand in the region of the most prominent wrinkles or skin changes by Phi-NeedlePen system for wider skin surfaces. During the treatment a specially formulated and patented solution is being applied to the skin and subsequently absorbed.
