The reason micro needling horror stories exist is not that of the treatment but because of poor training. Micro-needling is an advanced invasive treatment. With the correct training, it provides an effective procedure for scarring, skin rejuvenation, stretch marks and more. Yet, the training provided in the typical two-day course often leads to poor client outcomes and the reason a level 4 qualification is fast becoming the bare minimum aesthetic education level.
CIT Therapy, Micro-needling or dermal rolling has quickly become a popular treatment in the fight against premature ageing and the visual reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. It has proved to be such an effective therapy that skin resurfacing has taken a back seat. The procedure is not just effective for the visual reduction of premature ageing but also provides for:
Introduction to the eLearning system, introduction to micro needling. General introduction to ATAI, your tutor and support details.
After the orientation day you have access to the eLearning modules, to learn in your own time and at your own pace. During eLearning, you will also submit assignments as outlined in the course content, your tutor will advise you throughout this process.
Once you have completed the eLearning modules you call ATAI to arrange your practical days, these are held on Mondays and Tuesdays for a typical duration of 3 weeks. During your practical training, you build a portfolio of treatment evidence performed on models supplied by ATAI.
After completing all stages of the course we arrange exams at ATAI, and you will be informed of exam dates.
After completing the exams, we notify you of results and present you with your qualifications.
This module will enable learners to develop a working knowledge of the principals and practices of the aesthetics sector. It is designed to develop an understanding of the history, safety, legal and insurance obligations and how professional bodies influence the sector. You will display a working knowledge of the methods and processes that facilitate a safe working practice conforming to jurisdiction legislation where you are working.
Delegates will also start to develop an understanding of how to evaluate and access research materials relevant to their subject area whilst at the same time develop skills and knowledge of how to collate information for evidence-based practice within the aesthetics sector.

Learning Outcomes
Microneedling is often talked about in the context of creating a wound response. With the use of a roller or mechanical pen creating a controlled skin injury without damaging the epidermis. In technical terms, it creates a wound healing cascade which in turn releases growth factors such as platelet-derived growth factor (PGF) transforming growth factor alpha and beta (TGF-α and TGF-β), connective tissue activating protein, connective tissue growth factor, and fibroblast growth factor (FGF). For the client, a rejuvenated complexion and increased collagen production with diminished fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen production of type I, III, and VIII, a laying down of new capillaries and elastin is clinically proven after receiving the treatment. Skin suppleness and elasticity is increased and a reduction in pore size.
What is often overlooked is how effective (CIT) is when combined with topical serums. Indeed, the wound response mechanism is only half the treatment benefit. Vitamin C based serum is often used when treating scar tissue or for skin rejuvenation. It plays a key role in the fight against skin ageing, both in photo ageing and chronological. Vitamin E is known for its ability to absorb well into the skin and acts as an excellent moisturiser and a potent anti-inflammatory. Hyaluronic acid efficiently restores elasticity and promotes cellular regeneration. When paired with a micro-needling, the skin is densified and softened. Quality of the serum is of paramount importance so too the molecular weight. We cover serums during the course, their application and what to look for in a quality serum.
While the results from roller type devices gain good results, using a pen is less traumatic to the skin and allows a more uniform plus an increased number of channels.
