Retix C + Microneedling

Retix C is an advanced biostimulating therapy based on the action of retinoids, vitamin C, and an antioxidant complex, designed to support intensive cellular renewal, improve skin structure, and stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis. The treatment may be performed as a standalone procedure or combined with microneedling mesotherapy, allowing for enhanced active ingredient penetration and intensified therapeutic outcomes.

The therapy is indicated for anti-aging treatments, hyperpigmentation, loss of firmness, uneven skin texture, and signs of photoaging. This lesson discusses the mechanism of action of Retix C, client qualification principles, treatment safety, and the correct sequencing of combined procedures.

The material includes theoretical content, instructional video materials, and detailed step-by-step treatment protocols—both for the standalone procedure and the combined approach—along with a certificate of completion.
