BB GLOW "Flawless Skin"

What is BB Glow facial? 

The BB Glow facial, also known as the "flawless skin" facial. BBglow treatment is a minimally invasive and non-surgical procedure that uses a highly effective tinted pigment (its basically foundation to needle into your skin) it is applied by using the Microneedling method to penetrate the skin. It stimulates skin rejuvenation and collagen production. The BB glow serum adds natural nutrients as well as your desired colour to your skin. This facial leaves your skin looking flawless once the tinted pigments settle into the skin.  If you suffer with uneven skin tone, red markings on your skin and feel like your forever applying foundations/concealers to your skin to achieve a flawless appearance then this facial is perfect for you. 

As this is done via the Microneedling method, you achieve the benefits from this facial alone also. Microneedling is known as one of the best advanced facials on the market to prevent early signs of aging and help create healthy and youthful skin.  This process leaves your skin super plump, rejuvenated, reduced fine lines and wrinkles and a smooth and healthy complexion.

Does the BB Glow facial Hurt? 

Microneedling when done professionally and with the correct medical grade equipment does not hurt.  The best way to describe it and how I explain it to all my new clients who are feeling unsure about the treatment as all they think about when talking about Microneedling is 'NEEDLES' it just feels like a facial exfoliating scrub.  Most of my clients actually enjoy the feeling of the treatment (even the ones who were unsure at first). 

Please be assured that Microneedling is a very safe and beneficial method and when you come to aigeclinic for this treatment, my number one goal is to ensure my clients feel safe and comfortable. 

What to expect post treatment? 

Redness - Redness is totally normal and can last up to 72 hours post treatment. Most clients redness subsides within a few hours after the treatment, but if it lasts longer do not worry, this is totally normal.  

Dryness/Tightness - As your skin reacts to Microneedling as a mini trauma. You essentially have to go through a 'recovery stage'. During this stage you may experience some dryness and maybe even skin flaking & also a tightening feeling in your skin.  This is just your skins way of showing you it is removing all the dead skin cells and generating lots of new and youthful skin (which is classed as recovery).  This is also normal so please do not worry and just give your skin some time to recover. 

Purging - Most people think this is their skin breaking out, or not reacting well to the treatment/ingredients used. However purging happens when you use active ingredients which activate your skin to generate new skin cells at a much faster rate than usual OR when you have a facial treatment done which generates lots of new healthy skin cells at a much faster rate than usual. Purging is your skin getting rid of all the impurities/sebum/dirt by bringing them to the surface of the skin and then that's when the new skin cells appear once all the yucky stuff has been removed. Advanced facial treatments is a process, PLEASE BE PATIENT.
