Following your microneedling treatment, your skin may appear red and feel sensitive—similar to a mild sunburn—for up to 48 hours. Avoid touching your face unnecessarily, and do not apply makeup for at least 24 hours. Refrain from using active skincare products such as retinol, acids, or exfoliants for 5–7 days. Keep your skin clean, hydrated, and protected with a gentle cleanser, hydrating serum, and a high SPF daily. Avoid direct sun exposure, excessive heat, and intense exercise for 48 hours post-treatment. Allow your skin time to heal and regenerate for best results.
