Collagen Induction Therapy – Inkless MCA needling, Microneedling, Dermaroller
Online course for needling for treatment of scars, stretch marks & skin rejuvenation - learn inkless stretch mark removal with serums & much more. Inkless stretch marks training course.
What is Collagen Induction?
Collagen induction therapies are any treatments which stimulate the skin to produce new collagen (and elastin) through controlled trauma. These treatments can be used for gentler skin rejuvenation, or more invasive options for the treatment of scars and stretch marks.
Collagen and elastin are needed to give skin a plump, smooth, bouncy texture. The structure of these elements is disrupted following injury, and they both decline with age.
Although many different treatment options exist, needling has been shown to be the most effective method for skin repair and regeneration, when carried out correctly by a professional practitioner.

This training course covers 3 different needling treatment options for the treatment of many types of scars (stretch marks, acne scars, surgical or injury scars) and also for anti-aging.

Inkless stretch mark tattooing AKA Dry Tattooing AKA MCA Needling
The inkless method for stretch mark and scar camouflage is fast becoming an extremely popular treatment. Stretch mark tattooing with skin tone ink is also becoming more popular due to well-known Brazilian artists, but since the inkless method can also give fantastic results, it is a great service to be able to offer to your clients along side permanent makeup and other aesthetic treatments. In fact, many clients need MCA needling first to smooth and flatten their scars and stretch marks before they can have any inking. In most cases, they end up not having ink because the improvement with using just serums is enough to make a significant improvement. Results vary between clients. This course teaches you how to perform the treatment, and which serums to use to help repair the skin even faster. The treatment used to be known as “dry” tattooing but we now use it with scar repair serums so is better known as MCA needling.

How much can you earn from this treatment?
Treatment costs vary as it depends on the number of areas, the size of the areas, and the complexity of scars / stretch marks. The table below gives you an average per customer paying £300 per session for a 1.5-2 hour timeslot.
Number of clients per day | income per day | income per week (based on 5 day week) | income per month (based on 5 day week) | income per year (based on 5 day week) |
1 | £300 | £1500 | £6000 | £72,000 |
2 | £600 | £3000 | £12,000 | £144,000 |
3 | £900 | £4500 | £18,000 | £216,000 |
Note that how much you charge will vary from £300 and this is just a moderate example given. For example you may have a minimum charge like we do of £180 for a small scar tattoo coverup which may take you 30-40 minutes. On the other hand, if someone is having multiple areas treated on the same visit, you will be charging them £600-£700 on one visit, which takes 4 hours more or less. As you can see, it is a very profitable treatment.
