Microneedling Aftercare
What to expect following a Micro-needling treatment
Microneedling
Aftercare
Immediately after treatment, your skin will be pink.
Degrees vary from one individual to another, from pale pink blush to beet-root red. Any redness is expected to resolve steadily over hours, sometimes it may take 3 or 4 days to return to normal colour.
​
If redness worsens, or itching occurs in the first few hours after treatment, cold compresses or an antihistamine tablet will help to resolve any discomfort.
​
Use only the recommended products until skin colour returns to normal, then usual skincare may be resumed. Makeup can be worn the next day.
​
The use of serum is recommended to support healthy skin repair and boost results.
​
SPF 30 or above should be worn daily for at least 1 or 2 weeks after a course of treatment.
​
You are advised to avoid alcohol, vigorous exercise, and extremes of heat or cold for 48 hours post-treatment. These activities have been found to increase and prolong redness and swelling.
​
Do not use hair dyes for a week following treatment.
