Reduces fine lines and wrinkles, plumps facial volume and fades acne scarring.
Pre and post care is vital to the result of microneedling
Pretreatment
- It is essential that you prepare your skin properly prior to having your Microneedling treatment to reduce sensitivity.
- Clients must be using Environ Advanced Skincare (daily application if vitamin A) for at least 12 weeks before having microneedling.
- We recommend booking in for a skin consultation if you are considering having this treatment done.
Treatment:
The treatment involves a little discomfort but is gentle on the skin.
Post treatment
- With superficial treatment the skin will appear a little red, like sunburn, for approximately 24 hours causes
- The skin texture may feel ‘rough’ and the skin may flake a little as the cells rejuvenate, this is completely normal.
- With a more aggressive treatment, the skin will look sunburned for a day or two with possible pinprick scabbing which resolves in 2 - 3 days.
- Skin will be more sun-sensitive after treatment, so sunscreen is also advised.
- Those with a history of oral herpes may be prescribed an oral antiviral medication for one week following treatment because the procedure may stimulate a new cold sore.
