How can I prepare for my SkinPen Microneedling appointment?

• Stop using retinol products 5-7 days before treatment.

• Avoid alcohol consumption 48 hours prior to your treatment.

• Avoid sun exposure at least 1 week prior to your SkinPen treatment.

• Discontinue usage of scrubs, chemical exfoliants, and exfoliating tools 3 to 5 days prior.

What are my post care instructions? What should I expect post SkinPen treatment?

• You will feel a warm/sunburn-like sensation for about an hour post treatment.

• For cleansing the treated area, use a very mild, soothing cleanser.

• Refrain from applying makeup for 24 hours. Use clean makeup brushes. Mineral makeup is best for post-treatment healing.

• Do not use any additional skincare products during the first 24 hours following your treatment, unless advised by your provider.

• Do not exercise or increase your heart rate 24 to 48 hours post treatment.

• Avoid exposing the treated area to excessive heat - saunas, hot tubs, hot yoga, etc.

• Avoid all sun exposure for up to three days post treatment. Wear a hat and SPF.

• Refrain from deep exfoliation and/or retinol products for 7 to 10 days post treatment.

• Results can be seen 3-4 weeks after SkinPen Microneedling treatment is completed.
