After care questions following the microneedling process

After Care for Microneedling in Charlotte NC

Microneedling is a great way to enhance the skin’s appearance and health. At Eden MedSpa, we can recommend this to patients who would benefit from it the most. If you are located in the Charlotte, North Carolina area and are considering this treatment, you might have questions about after care.

Let’s look at some commonly asked concerns.

How should I care for my skin right after microneedling?

Right after your treatment, your skin will feel like it’s had a bit of a workout. Keep it simple for the next 24-48 hours, and stay away from makeup, harsh cleansers, or exfoliants. Stick to a gentle cleanser, a hydrating serum, and sunscreen!

Can I go back to my regular skincare routine right away?

Not so fast! Your skin is in recovery mode, so give it some TLC. Avoid active ingredients like retinol, AHAs, BHAs, or anything that could be too much for your healing skin. After about a week, you can ease back into your routine.

Is it normal for my skin to feel sensitive or look a little red?

Absolutely! A little redness, tightness, or sensitivity is totally normal and usually fades in one to two days.

When can I wear makeup again?

We know you are itching to grab your favorite foundation but give your skin at least 24-48 hours before applying makeup. Your freshly treated skin deserves some breathing room to rejuvenate properly.

Can I go to the gym or sweat it out after the treatment?

It’s best to skip the gym or any intense sweating for a couple of days after treatment. Excess sweat can irritate your skin or interfere with the healing process. Consider it the perfect excuse for some downtime!

How do I protect my skin after microneedling?

Sunscreen is your new best friend. It always should be! Shield your skin from harmful UV rays with at least SPF 30 every day. Stay out of the sun for the first few days post-treatment if you can.

When will I start seeing results?

While some may notice that post-treatment glow in just a few days, microneedling works beneath the surface. Full results, like smoother texture and improved tone, usually develop over several weeks as your skin’s collagen production kicks into high gear.
