Why do I get bumps under my skin
If your skin is covered in lots of small colorless or red bumps, you may be dealing with Milia, these are small, bump-like cysts found under the skin. They are usually 1 to 2 millimeters (mm) in size. They form when skin flakes or keratin, a protein, become trapped under the skin. Milia most often appear on the face, commonly around the eyelids and cheeks, though they can occur anywhere.
Another possibility is it is subclinical acne. This type of acne can cause the skin’s surface to look and feel uneven, without ever developing into the typical “pimple” – pus-filled and inflamed. Rather, subclinical acne is simply congested, clogged pores.
These little bumps are caused by an excess of sebum – the waxy, oily substance that your sebaceous glands naturally produce. When there is an excess of sebum, dirt, and dead skin cells on the skin’s surface, your pores become clogged, resulting in protruding follicles and a bumpy texture. Subclinical acne can occur in large numbers on the cheeks, nose, chin, or forehead. It is usually most common on the forehead and cheeks, because the oil glands on these two parts of the face are highly active.
Subclinical acne is most often tied to your lifestyle, stress, and/or hormonal changes. So how can you reduce its appearance?
1. The first step is to improve in your cleansing regime.
Subclinical acne is caused by clogged pores, the first step in reducing them is to improve your cleansing technique. Firstly take a look at the cleanser you’re using. The best type of cleanser to use will be an oil-based cleanser. Oil dissolves oil, making a cleansing oil extremely helpful. Foaming or soap-based cleansers can dry out the skin, which will actually lead to MORE oil production, as your body will try and make up for what you’re stripping away!
The next technique to utilise is double cleansing. This may seem counter-intuitive, especially if you’re used to drying cleansers, but double cleansing with an oil cleanser will help to clear and remove dead skin cells. You will cleanse daily am and pm, but only double cleanse once a day, preferably at night, when your skin really needs it, after a day of makeup, dirt, and pollutants!
2. Use a toner
To remove any leftover oil or dirt left on your face (which is possible even after double cleansing!), the toner helps to balance your pH levels and decrease excess oil production. ( the Omveda rose toner is divine, smells gorgeous and is very hydrating)
3. Choose your moisturiser wisely.
Whilst you're working on clearing out subclinical acne, you want to make sure your moisturiser is nice and light and not too heavy.
4. Do not squeeze or pick
This is especially important for subclinical acne, which won't normally break the skin on its own, as the bumps are congested pores. Picking at them could lead to scarring, and can cause breakouts to worsen. The best bet is to flush out the congestion with professional facials and recommended products.
5. Peels & Masks
We have so many different type of peels & masks, we can choose one that will break down the congestion, cleanse and clarify the skin while also supporting healthy circulation.
6. Go makeup free for a few days
We know it can be hard when you want to cover up your skin but the best option is to leave it as clean as possible. If you feel like you can’t go bare then opt for an all-natural, lightweight coverage that will allow your skin to breathe.
7. Drink lots of water
Drinking water is essential for keeping your skin clear. Our cells are nourished and hydrated by water, and dehydration can cause your skin to compensate by overproducing oil. Double certified MD, Dr. Amy Shah, recommends drinking between 10-14 glasses of water a day.

Note from Jules at Sole Revival skin and body clinic
“For those of you asking about the benefit of pulsing, here’s the answer: The consensus in the scientific research agrees that delivering the light energy in a pulsed manner, as opposed to continuous wave delivery, allows the cells to absorb more of the energy over the treatment session.
The more energy that is absorbed the better. Good LASERs deliver the energy this way but very few LED devices have a pulsing option. It is more costly and sophisticated to include pulsing so most manufacturers skip it. The pulsing in the Celluma algorithm is proprietary. However, like all aspects of Celluma, it’s not just flickering lights, it’s science based.
Each wavelength is pulsing at a different frequency and is at a rate perceptible by the cells although not to the human eye. For example, the Celluma wavelengths are pulsing between 80 and 800 hertz (per second) depending on the wavelength.”

Dermapen4
Dermapen4 - Skin Needling in Perth, done professionally.
Believe the Hype
What is Dermapen™microneedling?
All your questions answered
Unsurprisingly, we get asked a lot of questions about Dermapen™ microneedling. The number one of which is... *drumroll please*
“What is it?”
The short answer is that Dermapen™ microneedling is an effective, popular and minimally invasive procedure. It addresses a wide range of skin concerns, not just lines and wrinkles; although, it does reduce the signs of ageing too.
A lot of the confusion comes from the information and misinformation on the Internet, which makes it hard to separate facts from fiction.
That’s why this week we’re going beyond the claims and opinions, to give you the holistic answer to what Dermapen™ microneedling is.
The earliest use of therapeutic skin needling can be traced back thousands of years to ancient China. Fast forward to 1995, and cosmetic needling began its rapid timeline of innovation.
Australian medical developer and DermapenWorld CEO Stene Marshall introduced Dermapen to the world in 2010. It revolutionised the microneedling market. Dermapen is backed by years of research and prototypes to offer far superior design, comfort, versatility and results.
Over 3 million Dermapen Treatments have now been performed worldwide. With the DermapenWorld family of products, you are investing in quality and safety for your skin.
The micro-injuries caused by the treatment stimulate the production of collagen as your skin heals. Acne, trauma, pigmentation and a range of other ailments can cause blemishes on your skin. Ageing causes your skin to thin, sag and wrinkle.
Dermapen microneedling simply activates the skin’s natural self-rejuvenating function. A new layer of fresh tissue forms, creating a more youthful appearance on the surface and fighting antibodies underneath.
These small punctures also allow active ingredients in topical creams to penetrate deeper for intense rejuvenation.
Is Skin Needling and Dermapen Microneedling the Same?
Yes, Dermapen microneedling has many different names, which can make it confusing when selecting a treatment.
Other terms for microneedling include:
Percutaneous Collagen Induction (P.C.I.)
Collagen Induction Therapy (C.I.T.)
Scar Rejuvenation Therapy (S.R.T.), and
Skin needling
The Major Benefits of Dermapen Microneedling
Dermapen microneedling device provides effective management for many skin conditions.
All areas of the body including face, lip area, eye area, ears, neck, chest, hands and scalp can be treated with pinpoint precision. Dermapen mironeedling promotes rapid lifting, firming and toning of facial features and contours. It evens out skin tone and texture and diminishes scars and stretch marks.
Dermapen microneedling can help reduce the appearance of:
Ageing, fine lines and wrinkles
Multiple concerns can be treated in a single session with dermapen 4 thanks to the adjustable needle depth and oscillation speed.
How Long Until I See Results from Dermapen Microneedling?
Typically, you can expect improvements in the skin’s appearance and texture after just one session. After only 8-12 weeks, you’ll start to notice the lasting and more significant results. Your skin continues to improve for up to 12 months, particularly if you follow the recommended post-treatment care.
Check out the fantastic results Dermapen microneedling device offers with these incredible transformations.
Acne and acne scarring
Skincare is a top priority for most celebrities because they spend so much time in the spotlight. From Jennifer Aniston to the Kardashian sisters, more celebrities are discovering how cutting-edge microneedling treatments offer them younger-looking skin
Gwyneth Paltrow and Kourtney Kardashian are among the many celebrity enthusiasts of microneedling because of the amazing skin improvements they receive in a quick 20-minute treatment.
At Sole Revival Skin & Body Clinic, Perth’s certified master needling clinician Jules O’Driscoll ( BA Hons Complimentary Healthcare ) expertly creates hundreds of tiny injuries to the surface layer of your skin using a safe and controllable handheld needle device. This prompts your body to produce new collagen and elastin, the basic building blocks of younger-looking, vibrant skin.
The Dermapen 4 Micro Needling is Sole Revival’s premium anti-ageing treatment & is known for stimulating collagen and elastin.
Cue glowing skin... it can also dramatically reduce scarring, blackheads, open pores, age lines, pigmentation and so much more.
Dermapen4
Mesotherapy treatment is the delivery of small quantities of active ingredients (such as retinol) directly to the area of the skin where they are needed (we use the micro channels provided by needling to deliver deeper penetration).
We combine needling, mesotherapy, and hyaluronic hydration mask to maximise results for you. We also include a vitamin enriched moisture application and a cover recover sun block shield to further enhance and protect your skin.
We recommend a return appointment 10-14 days later for a follow up personalised facial peel & additional Mask treatment to further maximise your results.
As new collagen keeps forming, your skin looks plumper and healthier. Added fullness smooths out signs of aging, including wrinkles and fine lines.
You can choose microneedling treatment by itself to achieve your skin goals, or you can include it a series of facials treatments each one individually created for you to address your specific skin issues. Such as wrinkles, lines, aged skin, open pores, uneven skin tone, pigmentation, scars, weak or sick skin.
It’s not just for women
While female celebrities such as Angelina Jolie have talked about the positive outcome of microneedling, male celebs, including Jolie’s ex, Brad Pitt, are also known to undergo the procedure to rejuvenate their skin and reverse the signs of aging.
Due to the minimally invasive nature of the treatment, many male actors and on-screen personalities are turning to microneedling to keep their skin in tip-top condition with very little downtime or recovery.
Microneedling benefits
Microneedling is effective at boosting your body’s natural production of collagen to provide fullness and volume to skin.
As new collagen grows, you can expect benefits like:
Less visible acne scars
Skin that’s free of wrinkles and fine lines
Reduction in stretch marks
Microneedling treatments are great for your face but can also be used effectively on your neck, hands, or anywhere that could benefit from added volume and thicker, more vibrant skin.
It’s not just for celebs
While those in front of the camera have incentive to hang on to their youthful looks, microneedling isn’t just for celebrities. As you age, there will come a time when wrinkles and fine lines start to make you look older than you are.
Not everyone ages the same, so If your cursed with having spent to much time in the sun or just plain old bad genes then it may be time to do something about it. At Sole Revival Skin & Body Clinic, we can work with you to help you with your skin goals, including getting glowing healthy skin.

Calm and Clear Your Rosacea
ROSACEA DERMAPEN TREATMENT
Rosacea flare-ups often start at your nose and butterfly out to your cheeks and even forehead or chin. Rosacea Dermapen Treatments™ can minimise the appearance of common symptoms and help you achieve a more even complexion.
Calm Redness – Feel Confident
There are 3 main types of rosacea that vary in symptoms from red erythema to papules and pustules and even a thickening of the skin.
While there’s no known cure for rosacea, Dermapen skin needling can successfully minimise the appearance of common symptoms by normalising the creation of blood vessels (known as angiogenesis) and releasing regulatory growth factors.
skin Needling also increase the integrity of the 2 layers of your skin (dermis and epidermis) to increase density and resiliency. Redness becomes visibly reduced and the complexion feels more balanced and less reactive.
Rosacea Dermapen Treatments
Clinical Procedure
Your first stop is a clinical consultation, where your practitioner will determine how many procedures and at what intervals you require to reduce your rosacea symptoms. The Dermapen 4 device creates flawless, virtually pain-free, micro-channels which activate the skin’s self-rejuvenation function. As your skin heals, it promotes the production of collagen to re-densify and fortify the tissue. Capillaries are strengthened and their networks more regulated for a visibly clearer and rejuvenated effect, with the appearance of redness rapidly decreasing.
To maximise your treatment results there are a few products that are recommended.
TRI-PHASE CLEANSER

Facial reflexology
Facial reflexology
According to its advocates, facial reflexology is effective because the face has a large number of nerves and blood vessels.Facial reflexology combines massage with theories based on acupuncture and Chinese concepts of energy lines, or meridians.According to Chinese medicine, our energy flows through the body via 12 invisible meridians. If these energy lines become blocked, imbalances occur, and this imbalance can result in aches, pains, insomnia and even irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).Facial reflexologists say they can feel a change of texture as a result of these ‘imbalances’ under the upper layer of skin on the face. They are said to feel like sugar, lumps of porridge or grains of sand.By working over the face with the fingertips, they can help to break down these deposits, boosting the energy, circulatory and nervous systems.‘The brain is the control centre of the body and the face is much closer to it than the feet are, so I find combining face reflexology with foot reflexology is an incredibly powerful treatment ,’ says leading facial reflexology practitioner Jules O’Driscoll. Jules who has a clinic in Perth, explains that by stimulating the acupuncture points on the face and the feet using acupressure (pressing on them with the fingertips and rotating them on the spot). As well as being ‘energy points’ they are, according to Ms O’Driscoll important blood circulation points. The theory is that the face and the feet are where all your nerve endings begin or end, it is a micromap of the body so, by working on a particular point of the micromap, you can affect the corresponding body part, calming it if there is inflammation or stimulating it if there is sluggishness.The reflexologist uses the fingertips to make deep, sweeping massage movements or short, fast strokes. Sessions last for 45 to 50 minutes.Ms O’Driscoll says: ‘The treatment relaxes the entire body, and when the body relaxes, you start to heal. It’s no longer putting all its energy into stress.’Often clients are so relaxed by the therapy that they drift off into a dreamy state that some describe as being like ‘going under’.The treatment is popular with those suffering from conditions that may be stress-related such as insomnia, tension headaches and IBS. In some IBS patients, for example, there is a strong link between stress and symptoms, especially constipation. If stress can be alleviated, gut symptoms such as constipation can be alleviated too.Although IBS is normally treated through changes to diet and, if necessary, medication to alleviate abdominal pain and constipation or diarrhoea, there are those for whom such treatments do not work or who are reluctant to stick to them, and for whom reflexology may provide relief.The medical director of digestive diseases charity Core, Dr Anton Emmanuel, also consultant gastroenterologist at University College London, cites a study in which constipated patients received reflexology and bowel behaviour was monitored.In 18 out of 19 patients, not only did they feel less stressed, their bowel movements became more normal. Dr Emmanuel believes that the effects of reflexology on IBS-sufferers are about more than relaxation. ‘I think it may have an effect on the nervous system. Pain is perceptual: any intervention to alleviate pain has to work on the brain and the nervous system.‘It’s plausible that reflexology could do something to the brain’s reflex control of the gut and how pain is processed, in a way that is comparable with how conventional IBS treatments work.’
What is corneotherapy ? What does it mean to your facials ?
Corneothetapy is the skin care concept of the future. It’s where science meets beauty. It provides the link between dermatology and cosmetics.
( Here’s the skin geek bit: Professor Albert Kligman widely regarded as the father of cosmeceuticals, well known for his pioneering work on corneotherapy, had a clever way of describing it as being like an “outside- in” therapy, where “outside” is the stratum corneum and “in” are the therapeutic effects starting in the stratum corneum and working their way into the deeper layers.)
So, preventative corneotherapy is aimed at supporting the maintenance of healthy skin and the prevention of skin conditions and disease.
Trained therapist will use customised, pure ingredients in their skin care products that can individually adapt to treat specific skin problems. Think of it as bespoke skin care.
Great advances in our knowledge of the structure and function of the stratum corneum, has led to the development of many innovative products that have not only improved the efficacy but have made them more convenient and easier to use. These include new delivery systems to enhance penetration such as sprays, foams, gels and encapsulation.
Using the principles of corneotherapy it is possible to achieve skin correction and effectively treat many skin disorders before being earmarked for dermatology.
One of the major advantages of corneotherapy is that it is largely free from side effects in comparison with pharmaceuticals.
As Dr Kligman once said: “Whenever you see inflamed skin, regardless of its cause, it means that the stratum corneum is leaky and permeable. But, if you repair the stratum corneum, that tells the underlying tissues that they don’t have to keep reacting like there’s danger in the environment.” At Sole Revival we have developed a unique and effective range of treatments and products to restore balance to the stratum corneum and promote ongoing healthy, balanced skin.
Recent clinical studies* have shown that not only barrier disorders like acne, rosacea and atopic dermatitis respond particularly well to corneotherapy, but cornification disorders may also be treated with success. An important precondition of a healthy stratum corneum seems to be the presence of Phosphatidylcholine. This substance plays a significant role as a natural component of the cellular membranes. Moreover in its native form, it provides the linoleic acid for the formation of ceramide 1.
Phosphatidylcholine is also an essential element for the transformation of ceramides into sphingomyelins. It is an interesting fact that the fluidity of the skin barrier layers may be increased with linoleic acid containing Phosphatidylcholine.

Skincare, what you should know
There is so much information on social media where the stronger the skincare products are the better. But when it comes to active ingredients such as Vit C, Retinol, AHA's and Vitamin A, this information can be very misleading and actually ruin your skin, turning healthy skin into compromised skin that is sensitive and inflamed. The belief that unless you're experiencing dryness and flaking on a regular basis that your results are going to plateau and the ingredients aren't working hard enough for you is not correct. When your skin becomes compromised it’s a clear sign to take it easy and nourish your skin with non active products to improve your skins health. If you over-do things, particularly with AHA's and Vitamin A, you risk impairing you’re skins natural barrier.
Remember our skin is an organ not a muscle, it does not need to be pushed beyond its limits to become stronger.
Collectivity our skins microbiome are what keep our skin healthy. They regulate water loss and cell turnover, as well as protecting us from free radicals and pollution.
When we see acne, rosacea, sun damage, wrinkles ect, it’s a sure sign that our skin is not operating the way it should and it requires correction. Knowing exactly what is required to correct the skin is the key, this is when a good therapist, knowledgeable in how cells function can help you. They will tell you, there is no quick fix. Most of the skin issues we see occur in the epidermis, so the first port of call should be perfecting how those layers are being formed. Once we do that all the skin issues will start to correct themselves over time. Wrinkles and loss of elasticity are dermal ( surface) issues but really it began in the epidermis long before it became visible.
Remember less is more and consistency and importantly patience is key. Get skin savvy and find yourself someone who has invested their time into educating themselves to understand what it is your skin needs. When I recommend a product to you it’s not to sell you something, it’s to help you. Customised skin care programmes are the way of the future.
Think about the analogy of the marathon runner. If you were asked to run a marathon with no training or preparation would you do well, not likely, in fact you would do yourself damage. It’s the same with homecare products, they are your personal trainer, setting you up for success. With preparation your less likely to risk injury as well as downtime and recovery time.

What is the best anti-aging Facial ? skin needling or radio frequency?
What is the best anti aging treatment available?
Without a doubt the Skin Needling and the Radio Frequency non-surgical Facelift are both excellent. But if the thought of needling your skin is just too much for you opt for the RF.
As we get older our muscles shrink causing surrounding fat and tissue to take on a 'drooping' appearance. When facial muscles begin to shrink the shape of the face itself changes and can be very ageing. Unlike other treatments on the market, the 'Radio Frequency treatment works at the deeper level of the muscle, not simply at the surface level of the skin. By rebuilding the underlying muscle mass which supports the skin layer, the face itself becomes 'lifted'. Fine lines and wrinkles on the surface of the skin then become reduced or eliminated. The radio frequency treatment also stimulates the body's natural production of collagen and elastin, further enhancing skin tissue and accentuating a more youthful appearance.
The radio frequency facelifting treatment is a natural way to exercise facial muscles which unlike the body are particularly difficult to exercise effectively even with extensive manual manipulation. Originally developed for those suffering from Bells Palsy and Strokes it was discovered that when the treatment was applied to the 'drooping' side of the face that it actually lifted higher than the unaffected side. The results can be remarkable. For 24-48 hours after a treatment the muscles continue to work and regenerate themselves.
The best facial for wrinkles
