We know the skincare world is constantly evolving, with 100’s of new treatments on the market, but we believe microneedling with NCTF is here to stay! NCTF bridges the gap between science, aesthetics, and real-life results. NCTF is not just a fleeting trend, we can assure you! Across Melbourne and the Bayside area, people are actively searching for it because it offers something unique.. A deeper skin revitalisation, improved texture, and a refreshed look, without the downtime of some other treatments.

We’re exploring exactly what NCTF is, why it pairs so well with microneedling, what results you can expect, and why it is quickly becoming one of the most requested procedures in our Parkdale clinic!

Understanding NCTF

NCTF stands for New Cellular Treatment Factor. Developed in France by Filorga, it has built a reputation globally as a leading skin revitalisation complex. What makes it different from many boosters is its polyrevitalising formula… In other words, it’s not just one active ingredient.

Inside each vial of NCTF is a cocktail of more than fifty ingredients!

Hyaluronic acid for hydration
Vitamins to support cellular health
Amino acids that assist in rebuilding and repairing
Coenzymes and antioxidants that protect the skin from stress and damage
Minerals that play a role in skin balance and renewal

Instead of focusing on one skin concern, NCTF works to improve the overall quality of the skin. Clients often report that their skin feels not only smoother and more supple, but stronger and healthier in the weeks following treatment. Microneedling with NCTF is the gift that keeps on giving!

The science of microneedling

Microneedling has long been regarded as one of the most effective non-surgical procedures for skin rejuvenation. It involves the use of a device fitted with fine, sterile needles that create tiny channels in the skin. These micro-injuries are controlled and precise, encouraging the skin to switch on its natural healing response. We use two different devices at BYGOLDEN. SkinPen & 1Need. Both TGA approved devices proven in their field!

The result? Increased production of collagen and elastin, the two proteins that give skin its firmness and elasticity. Over time, this means

Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
Improvement in acne scarring and uneven texture
More even skin tone
A healthy, glowy appearance

Microneedling on its own can deliver impressive results, which is why it has remained a clinic staple. But when it’s combined with NCTF, the treatment goes to another level.

Why NCTF and microneedling are the perfect pair

On their own, both treatments are effective. Together, they are transformative. The microchannels created during microneedling provide a direct pathway for NCTF to penetrate deeper into the skin layers, where its blend of nutrients and hyaluronic acid can make the biggest impact.

This synergy means that instead of simply stimulating collagen, the skin is also flooded with hydration and nourishment. Clients often notice that recovery is faster, glow is restored more quickly, and the overall results feel amplified.

It’s this combination of stimulation and supplementation that has led many Melbourne clinics, particularly in Bayside suburbs like Parkdale, Mentone, and Beaumaris, to recommend NCTF microneedling as a premium skin treatment! What further sets BYGOLDEN apart is our ability to track changes in your skin, through our Aura 3D facial imaging device, one of only 5 devices in Australia! The Aura 3D analyses your skin at multiple depths, with clinical precision!

Who is this treatment best suited for?

While NCTF microneedling can be tailored to suit a wide range of skin types and ages, it is especially popular among:

Those noticing early signs of ageing, such as fine lines and reduced elasticity
People experiencing dryness, dullness, or skin fatigue
Clients with uneven tone, rough texture, or enlarged pores
People looking for preventative treatments to maintain glowy, healthy skin. Remember, prevention is always better than cure!

Because NCTF is rich in antioxidants and vitamins, it is also suitable if you live a busy lifestyles and feel your skin needs extra support to cope with stress, pollution, and environmental exposure.
