Your skin may be sensitive in the days following treatment, and you may notice: pain and redness, peeling, bruising and/or bleeding. These side effects typically go away within a few days. You’ll also want to keep the area clean after treatment to avoid infection.

Microneedling is not suitable for everyone. People with active skin infections, uncontrolled diabetes, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not have this treatment.

Looking for a microneedling treatment in Colorado? You probably want to know what to expect from your first appointment. Our team will walk you through every step of the procedure, so you feel comfortable and confident before we get started. We’ll also provide post-treatment instructions to make sure you’re taking proper care of your skin. At your microneedling appointment, the aesthetician will start by cleaning your skin with a gentle cleanser and then applying a numbing cream to minimize any discomfort. Once your skin is numb, the aesthetician will use a small device that contains fine needles to make micro-injuries in the top layer of skin.

The short answer is yes! Both hyaluronic acid and PRP are collagen-stimulating products that help to hydrate and plump the skin. PRP is also rich in growth factors and other proteins that help to speed up the healing process and promote healthy tissue regeneration. Typically, we will use one of these products immediately following your procedure for more dramatic and rejuvenated results.

No, medical microneedling does not hurt. The needles used are very thin and cause minimal discomfort. Many people report feeling a slight prickling sensation during the procedure, but this is usually temporary and goes away quickly.

It all depends on what you’re hoping to achieve with microneedling. If you’re just looking to improve your skin’s overall appearance, you may start seeing results after just a few treatments. However, if you’re hoping to target specific concerns like scarring or wrinkles, it may take a few more sessions. Either way, it’s essential to be patient and consistent with your treatments for the optimal outcome.

Avoid applying anything to the treatment area for at least six hours after your microneedling session. After that, you can begin using a gentle cleanser and warm water to wash the area for three days after treatment. Ensure that your hands are clean when touching the area to avoid infection.

We also recommend using hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin and collagen-stimulating peptides to maximize the effects of the treatment. Avoid applying makeup for 1-3 days, and apply chemical-free sunscreen every day.
