AFTER CARE

After treatment, keep the skin clean and moisturized, use gentle products, avoid makeup and active ingredients such as retinoids and exfoliating acids for the period recommended by your provider, and protect your skin from the sun with broad-spectrum sunscreen. Follow our provider’s aftercare instructions and avoid picking or rubbing the treated area.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses a device with fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries prompt the body’s natural repair process, including the production of collagen and elastin, proteins that help support skin firmness and texture. Depending on the device and treatment plan, microneedling may be used on the face or other areas to address concerns such as uneven texture, enlarged pores, fine lines, acne scars, and some types of discoloration.

Benefits may include: smoother-looking skin, improved firmness, and a more even appearance over time.

Results usually develop gradually over a series of treatments, and temporary redness, sensitivity, or mild swelling can occur afterward.
