After Treatment
After Microneedling
Your skin will look red like a sunburn - this is normal and resolves within 24-72 hours.
First 72 Hours
- Redness and mild swelling are expected - like a sunburn
- Do not apply makeup for at least 24 hours
- Use only the products recommended by the treatment team
- Do not use active ingredients (vitamin C, retinol, AHAs) for 72 hours - the micro-channels are still open
What to Avoid
- Swimming, sauna, or heavy sweating for 72 hours
- Direct sun exposure - use SPF 50+ daily
- Touching or rubbing the treated area
- Active skincare products for 72 hours
Results
- Initial improvement visible within 2-4 weeks
- Continued improvement over several months as collagen rebuilds
- A series of 3-6 treatments is recommended for optimal results
- Treatments are spaced 3-6 weeks apart
