Microneedling

Post Treatment Instructions

You have received a microneedling treatment. Microneedling causes hundreds of microinjuries to your skin, prompting your body to create more collagen. Skin improvements occur gradually over 4-12 weeks. It is very important to follow these instructions to prevent infection and get the best results possible. 

What to expect:

  • Red/pink skin for 3-4 days following treatment.

  • Flaky, “dry” skin for 3-4 days once redness resolves. This may seem like dry skin, but it is cellular turnover occurring. Continue to use gentle skincare then exfoliate on day 7 or 8. 

Do not:

  • Sweat for 12 hours - 24 hours

  • Wear makeup for at least 24 hours (the longer the better, I recommend avoiding make up for 3-5 days).

  • Use skincare devices (jade rollers, Clarisonic cleanser, etc) for 1 week

Do:

  • Use gentle skincare (cleanser, moisturizer, SPF) for a week post treatment. No retinols, vitamin Cs, glycolic acid, or pH lowering skin care products. Resume normal skincare 7 days after treatment.

  • Use clean pillowcase

  • Wash hands before touching face

  • If exosomes used, please use post-care kit as directed. 

Schedule next microneedling appointment within 4-6 weeks. Expect to complete at least 3 treatments for desired results.
