How soon will I see results with SkinPen Microneedling?
Results from SkinPen microneedling can be noticeable within a few days, as the skin begins to look refreshed and rejuvenated. However, the most significant improvements, such as smoother texture and reduced fine lines, generally appear over 4-6 weeks as new collagen continues to form, providing natural and lasting results.
Does SkinPen Microneedling hurt?
SkinPen microneedling is well-tolerated by most patients, as a topical anesthetic is applied beforehand to reduce discomfort. While you may feel slight pressure or tingling during the procedure, the numbing cream makes the process manageable, and any redness or sensitivity post-treatment typically subsides within a day.
How many SkinPen Microneedling sessions are recommended?
For optimal results, SkinPen microneedling is typically recommended as a series of 3-6 sessions, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. This schedule allows time for collagen regeneration between treatments, enhancing the cumulative benefits and giving the skin a firmer, smoother, and more youthful appearance over time.
Can I wear makeup after SkinPen Microneedling?
After SkinPen microneedling, it’s advised to wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup. This waiting period allows your skin to recover fully and lowers the risk of irritation. Once healed, you can return to your regular makeup routine, though gentle, hydrating products are recommended to support recovery.
