Microneedling After Care Instructions

  • Swelling and redness is normal; it will subside in 1-2 hours and diminish for the most part in 24 hours
  • Rinse the treated area with lukewarm water within the first 24 hours. After 1 day, you may use a gentle cleanser to clean the area for the following 72 hours
  • Do not apply any makeup or sunscreen for 24 hours after treatment. After the first day, apply a broad spectrum non-chemical sunscreen (at least SPF 30) for the next 2 weeks
  • After 48-72 hours, patients may resume their regular skincare routines. Use retinol products to enhance results
  • Avoid alcohol-based toners, inflammatory medicines, and prolonged sun exposure for 2 weeks
  • Refrain from touching the treated area; if you must, ensure your hands are clean.
