Tender

TENDER - aka your skin after a microneedling sesh πŸ’₯. Lets talk proper aftercare, shall we? The inflammatory effect of the skin is extremely short and fades significantly within hours from redness to pinkish that may last for 12 to 48 hrs. Use only your hands to pat dry no earlier than 4 hours after needling, gently washing with a gentle cleanser, cool πŸ’¦ water. It is highly advisable that you do not take any anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen, Motrin or Advil because these will interfere with the body’s natural inflammatory process that is serious for your skins transformation ✨. Peeling may start 3-5 days after treatment & I cannot stress this enough, DO NOT pick or scratch at treated skin. keep it insanely moisturized!!! It is highly recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise or sweating for 24 hours due to open pores (especially for my breakout prone pals). Avoid sun exposure for a minimum of three days up to ten days - if you absolutely must be outside: SPF, frequently & a sun hat πŸ‘’. Inside of two days following your Micro-Needling procedure, you can expect to experience skin dryness and flaking due to an increased turnover of skin cells (AKA NEW COLLAGEN COMIN THROUGH HOT πŸ™ŒπŸΌ Last but not least, you can expect results. Microneedling is a sought after Hollywood treatment for a variety of skincare problems including improving the overall appearance of skin. Expect glowing skin after the recovery period of your very first treatment πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ’“ - highly recommended to complete a series of six treatments for the most dramatic results!
