Microneedling Course – Complete Guide & Requirements 2026

If you’re a beauty therapist or medical professional wanting to add one of the most in-demand skin rejuvenation treatments to your services in 2026, the Microneedling Course at Velvet Training Academy is an excellent practical qualification.

This course teaches you how to safely and effectively perform microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) to improve skin texture, reduce scarring, minimise fine lines, and boost overall skin quality.

Why Choose the Microneedling Course?

Microneedling remains one of the top aesthetic treatments because it delivers visible results with minimal downtime. It works by creating controlled micro-injuries that trigger the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production. Clients love it for acne scars, ageing skin, enlarged pores, and dull texture.

This course gives you the hands-on skills and confidence to deliver professional microneedling treatments safely and effectively.
