WHAT IS THE TREATMENT?

BBglow treatment is a minimally invasive and non-surgical procedure that uses a highly effective tinted pigment, applied by using a nano-needle or microneedle to penetrate the skin. It stimulates skin rejuvenation and collagen production. The BB glow serum adds nutrients as well as your desired colour to your skin. The treatment leads to fewer freckles, brighter and radiant skin, reduced skin discolouration, even skin tone, and fewer wrinkles and fine lines. It is a form of semi-permanent makeup that can last up to half a year with the proper number of treatments and aftercare.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The therapist uses a microneedling pen and a Stayve white serum with foundation in it to provide you with instant sheer coverage, reducing the appearance of pores, and smooths fine lines and wrinkles. The serum contains hyaluronic acid to make your skin more radiant and plumper and vitamin C to treat freckles and hyperpigmentation. The serum also treats your skin from the inside. The therapist uses a microneedling pen to penetrate the foundation into the skin. The microneedling pen roll tiny needles over the skin which cause trauma, forcing the body to go into its natural repair mode, increasing the collagen and elastin production. The therapist can adjust the speed and length of the needles, according to the area being treated. The BB glow Stayve shades available include Light (lightest shades for normal skin complexions), Light Rose (light pink shades for bright skin complexions), Medium (medium shades for medium skin complexions), Deep (dark shades for brownskin or bronze skin complexions), and Deep Plus(deep skin complexions).
