Why Aftercare Matters
RF microneedling is powerful – but the way you prep and heal determines how flawless your results look.
Before Your Appointment
DO: Keep Skin Calm & Hydrated
Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers in the days leading up to your treatment.
DON’T: Use Retinol or Strong Acids 3-5 Days Prior
Pause retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, and scrubs to avoid sensitivity.
DO: Avoid Sun Exposure
Arrive with skin that’s not tanned, burned, or irritated.
DON’T: Book Other Aggressive Treatments Too Close Together
No peels, lasers, or extractions right before. Keep your skin barrier happy.
Day of Your Appointment
DO: Arrive With Fresh, Clean Skin
No makeup, moisturizer, or SPF – just clean skin.
DON’T: Drink Alcohol Right Before
It may increase redness or sensitivity.
After Treatment: The First 72 Hours
Your skin is in collagen-activation mode. Treat it gently.
DO: Expect Redness & Warmth
It’s normal and part of the glow-up process.
DON’T: Wear Makeup for 24-48 Hours
Let your skin breathe.
DON’T: Sweat, Sauna, or Hot Yoga
Heat can irritate the skin while it’s healing.
DON’T: Pick, Scratch, or Scrub
Let any dryness or flaking fall off naturally.
The Week After
DO: Focus on Hydration
Hyaluronic acid, ceramides, peptide serums – yes please.
DON’T: Rush Back Into Actives
Avoid retinol, vitamin C, and strong exfoliants until your provider says it’s okay.
For Best Long-Term Results
DO: Commit to a Series
Most clients see their most dramatic results after 3-4 sessions.
DON’T: Skip Your SPF
This is the most important step for glowing, even results.
