FAQs
Almost anyone seeking to improve their skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance can benefit from Microneedling. However, consulting with a professional is essential to determine individual suitability.
While some individuals notice improvements after just one session, optimal results typically manifest after multiple treatments spaced several weeks apart.
The longevity of Microneedling results varies among individuals, but with proper skincare and maintenance, benefits can last for several months.
Microneedling offers minimal downtime. Post-treatment, the skin may appear red or swollen, similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually subsides within a few days.
Before the treatment, avoid sun exposure, certain medications, and skincare products that might irritate the skin. After the procedure, follow the aftercare instructions provided by your specialist, which typically include using a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and sun protection.
In order to make it more comfortable, the area of treatment is numbed with a cream. The Microneedling device is then glided over the skin, creating tiny punctures. The procedure is relatively quick, and while some mild discomfort may be felt, it’s generally well-tolerated.
