Philings Skincare

What Is Philings?

Rejuvenated Skin, Without Surgery

PhiLings is the umbrella term for Phi-Ion and Micro-needling treatments - two equally revolutionary, unique, anti-ageing and regenerative treatments. These treatments can be done in combination or separately, depending on the skin concern.

What is Micro-needling?

Our skin is at the bottom of the priority list when it comes to the distribution of nourishing ingredients because tissue regeneration and vitality maintenance are far more important for internal organs.

Micro-needling is the process of causing micro-damage to the skin, by penetrating needles to a depth of 0.2mm - 0.75mm and is considered to be painless. The small wounds cause your body to make more collagen and elastin, which heal your skin and help you look younger. You might also hear it called collagen induction therapy. During the treatment a micro-needling cocktail will be applied, selected specifically based on your skin concerns. You will receive an aftercare pack which includes further skincare products and detailed instructions for all micro-needling aftercare requirements.

Microneedling Healing and Risks

It’s not a quick fix. It takes time to notice a difference. That’s because your body is healing itself. Most people need up to 3 treatments before they see any change.

Healing time. Most people find they have no downtime and their skin looks clear and rejuvenated from the next morning, with any residual redness having gone.

Pain and redness. You may have some minor pain, tinging or tightness, after the procedure and your skin may be red for a short time.

Peeling. Your skin may feel tight and like sunburn for the first 24-48 hours.

Bruising and bleeding. There’s usually minimal bleeding and no bruising during micro-needling.

Possible scarring. Micro-needling isn’t a good idea for people who’ve had keloids, scars that look like large bubbles on the skin. It could make the condition worse.

Infection. Micro-needling creates tiny holes in the skin, which could let germs enter. But the risk of infection is very low. If you’re healthy, an infection from microneedling is unlikely and all needles used are one-use disposable cartridges.

What is Phi-Ion (Plasma Pen)?

Phi-Ion is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure which triggers an instant contraction and tightening of the skin to create a lifting, remodelling and rejuvenating effect. This method can be used to tighten specific areas of skin without causing any damage to the underlying or adjacent tissues. This revolutionary method is capable of achieving results comparable to those of cosmetic surgery and one treatment is usually enough to achieve the desired effect.  Phi-Ion can provide baggy eyelid correction, wrinkle tensioning around crows feet and marionette lines,  and can be used to improve acne scars as-well as remove skin tags.

Phi-Ion treatments work on the principle of ionized gas in the air. At the right distance from the skin, oxygen and nitrogen are mixed, and the electrostatic energy produces the plasmatic effusion or arc, which discharges onto the skin.

Without actually touching the skin, this plasma arc vaporises the skin forcing it to contract and stimulates fibroblasts.

Small carbon crusts form on the skin, resembling dots, which slough away over the coming days to reveal regenerated skin.

The micro trauma caused by plasma stimulates Fibroblasts (the cells responsible for the production of collagen and elastin in the skin) and promotes the production of new skin cells which will help to strengthen, plump and tighten the skin.

New cell production continues for several weeks after a session. This helps to refine fine lines and wrinkles, and improve the overall complexion of the skin.

Plasma (Phi-Ion) Healing and Risks

Local anaesthetic cream is applied for 20 minutes to help reduce any discomfort, and the treatment is then nearly painless. The procedure may feel hot in places, and there may be a burning sensation or a tingling. However, just like any other trauma to the skin, there is always a smallest possibility of scars. But overall this skin tightening treatment is 100% safe and effective.

You shouldn’t receive plasma skin therapy if you are breastfeeding, are pregnant, have an allergy to topical anaesthetic preparations, have an infection at the treatment site or are using isotretinoin for wrinkles or acne.

If you have a history of keloids or hypertrophic scarring, it’s recommended that you approach plasma therapy with caution.

In addition, the procedure isn’t without side effects. Examples of side effects can include redness, swelling, mild hypopigmentation (light spots), mild hyperpigmentation (dark spots) and skin peeling and crusting.

Plasma is mildly to moderately uncomfortable. Everyone’s pain level is different and some areas of the body are more sensitive than others. Numbing cream is helpful in reducing the discomfort during treatment.

Qualifications & Training

My journey with permanent makeup began at the start of 2019. My love of all-things-eyebrows had turned from just an 'interest' into something I knew I wanted to move my career towards.

I firmly believe that the minute you stop learning, everything stops. I fully intend to continue training regularly throughout my career as often as I'm able.

May 2019

Attended a two day 'Phibrows Microblading Course' with Grand Master Dovile Zilinskaite. Six months rigorous training process started immediately. Dovile Zilinskaite is the founder of PhiAcademy London and was one of the first PhiAcademy Masters and the only one titled Grand Master by PhiAcademy in the United Kingdom.

August 2019

Passed final of 11 levels of the 'Phibrows Microblading Course' and qualified as a Phibrows Artist. Awarded Phibrows Artist number, Phibrows logo to use on photographs and entered into the Phibrows Community World Map of registered Artists.

October 2019

Enrolled on the Phibrows Grand Master Vesna Jugovic course 'Perfection and PhiShading'. This course enables you to learn about a combination of manual shading and perfecting the eyebrow hair hairstrokes, offering more intensive and fuller looking brows, yet still with a natural effect.

January 2020

Attended a 'Brow Daddy London Ombre Brows Masterclass', taught by Brow Daddy himself; Ruben Kasper. Received certificate of attendance following display of having adequately learned and understood the various Brow Daddy methods, including his marketing and social media secrets!

April 2020

May 2020

Enrolled on the 'BoldBrows Perfection Course' by Grand Master Vesna Jugovic.

 

The idea of this pattern is to create a hyper realistic look guided by the natural direction of the hairs and to give the eyebrows a volume-shaped look.

Initially, the inspiration for BoldBrows was found in the trend of “fluffy” eyebrows and then, through perfecting, it became a pattern adapted for all types. The strokes are different from those of Basic Microblading because of the pattern that is formed in curved and twisted hairs, in combination with mini strokes that actually make a volumizing effect.

August 2020

Qualified with Kerstin and Thorsten for Powderbrows.

November 2020

Enrolled on Master Maya Miller's 'Philings and Micro-needling Course'.

Subsequently delayed until February 2021 due to Covid-19 lockdown and then completed in July 2021.
