Microneedling Safety Guidelines & Care Instructions

Introduction

Microneedling is a safe, minimally invasive, and effective aesthetic treatment for several different dermatological conditions including acne and other scars. Given its expedient post-treatment recovery, limited side effect profile, and significant clinical results, microneedling is a valuable alternative to more invasive procedures such as laser skin resurfacing and deep chemical peeling.

About 4 to 6 Microneedling sessions with a gap of 4 to 8 weeks per session are required for the most effective results, including acne scars, pigmentation and wrinkles.

Safety Guidelines for Microneedling

• For safety and hygiene reasons, the needle cartridge can only be used once and then disposed after usage.
• Customers may experience minor redness and irritation for a few days after the procedure. Active skincare regime is recommended after Day 3.
• Microneedling is not safe for customers who use certain acne medications or for women who are pregnant.
• Microneedling may also not be safe for customers who have certain skin diseases such as psoriasis or eczema, as well as any open wounds. 
• The treated skin will be more sensitive to the sun, so sunblock is a must.  
• It is recommended to stop using topical retinoids before treatment (at least for a day).
• If the customer chooses to use the numbing cream, care must be taken to thoroughly clear away the numbing cream before treatment. This is because the numbing cream is a poison and can cause very serious side-effects if it enters the bloodstream (via the microneedling process).

Microneedling can also be done at a fraction of the cost when compared to surgical treatments. It appears to be an overall effective and safe therapeutic option for numerous dermatologic conditions.

Is Microneedling effective for acne scars?

• Microneedling is extremely effective for Acne Scars.
• A 2015 study of microneedling’s effect on atrophic acne scars revealed that patients experienced noticeable clinical improvement in the look of their post-acne scarring after three months of microneedling treatments. (Source3)
• Gliding tiny micro needles over the skin breaks down collagen bundles in the top layer of the dermis, which are responsible for those uneven scars.
• A retinol-based serum in this instance would provide additional exfoliating power to smoothen the acne scars.
• About 4 to 6 sessions with a gap of 2 to 4 weeks per session are required for the most effective acne scar removal.
