About the Training & My Experience
Microneedling is one of the most sought after advanced facial treatments in professional skincare. When performed correctly, it can support skin regeneration, refine texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and improve overall skin tone, all while maintaining skin safety and comfort. This technique works by creating controlled micro channels in the skin, helping topical ingredients penetrate more effectively and encouraging the skin’s natural repair response.
I completed my first microneedling training back in 2018. Since then, the techniques used in this treatment have evolved considerably, new guidelines, protocols and recommendations have been introduced to improve effectiveness, but above all to protect the skin’s safety. Microneedling is no longer about going as deep as possible, but about choosing needle depths and methods consciously, to support the skin’s regeneration rather than overwhelm it.
Over the years, I have completed numerous courses in different microneedling techniques, working with a variety of devices and protocols. For that reason, in my training I focus on teaching the safest and most effective approaches, so that both you and your clients can feel confident and secure when performing this treatment.
At YA Studio, I train microneedling in a structured and simplified way, based on understanding skin behaviour and respecting the skin’s natural healing processes.

Who Is This Training For?
This course is suitable for practitioners who already hold an advanced facial or aesthetics qualification Level 3 Beauty, Level 3 in Aesthetics, or higher (or an equivalent qualification). Many insurance providers require a Level 3 background in order to perform microneedling treatments, therefore it is strongly recommended to check your cover requirements with your insurer before booking.
This training is ideal if you:
Want to offer advanced regenerative, skin-improving treatments
Prefer results that support natural collagen and skin repair
Wish to expand your advanced facial and aesthetics menu
Value a safe, structured and barrier-conscious approach
If you are completely new to facials, I recommend starting with a basic skin care qualification before progressing to Microneedling.

1 full day individual training (approx. 5 hours)
Combination of theory, demonstration and guided hands on practice

Models & Practical Work
During the training, you will first practise the technique on training mannequin, allowing you to build confidence, learn correct pressure, hand positioning and needle depth control before moving on to real models.
