Micro-needling Aftercare

After your Micro-needling treatment, please be aware and observe the following:

Immediately after your treatment, you will look as though you have a moderate sunburn and your skin may feel warm and tighter than usual. You may also notice some slight swelling, both are normal and should subside after 1 to 2 hours and will normally diminish within the same day or 24 hours. You may see slight redness after 24 hours but only in minimal areas or spots.

After-care instructions for Micro-needling Treatment:

Redness and sensitivity to the area is due to the increase of collagen induction as this starts within 48 hours
Itchiness can occur due to the release of histamines in the skin, a regular antihistamine can help with this.
Dry skin can be experienced after treatment, use a mild moisturiser and an SPF of at least SPF30 for up to a week after, although SPF should be used daily.
No sun exposure for a minimum of 72 hours
Do not over touch the area as this creates risk of causing infection
Sometimes there can be swelling, bruising and marks where the needles have entered.
No make up for minimum 24 hours

After first treatment skin will often feel tighter and look fresher. Results will continue to improve for 3-12 months after treatment as a whole new collagen matrix is formed within the skin, making micro-needling a long lasting treatment.

To achieve maximum result a course of at least 3 micro-needling sessions is recommended over 4-6 weeks intervals, although great skin improvement is noticeable after one treatment.

If you have thad he Jalutox Treatment you can only have this particular treatment every 12 weeks.
