Maximize Your Microneedling Treatments with These Microneedling Post Care Tips

If you’ve invested the time and effort into getting skin resurfacing treatments done, such as microneedling, you want to follow through with excellent post care in-between sessions. Give your skin the best chance to recover by protecting and pampering it, so you reap the full benefits of microneedling results and can achieve optimal treatment outcomes.



Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment that involves a handheld device with tiny needles that penetrate the deeper layers of the skin to promote healthy collagen production. This is a process that can improve the look of skin’s tone and texture, and reduce the appearance of acne scars, for example.

The following tips address some microneedling post care best practices, so you know what to do (and what to avoid) in order to help attain optimal microneedling treatment outcomes.

Clean Skin Is the Path to Clear Skin

After a treatment, it may be tempting to avoid using anything on your face in fear of losing your perfect dewiness. But clean skin is the first step to healthy skin. The caveat is that you should use skincare products designed especially for skin enhancement treatments. You want a high-quality cleanser that will gently remove dirt and debris without stripping your skin of its natural oils. Some of the key ingredients to look out for include powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatories like vitamins E and C, grape seed oil, rice bran oil, apricot kernel extract, and hyaluronic acid. Your skin should feel soft and smooth after cleansing, not dried out and tight.

Hydrated Skin Is Happy Skin

Applying a microneedling serum designed to help provide intense hydration and repair is another important step in your skincare routine after a microneedling procedure. Regardless of skin type, the skin needs a proper amount of hydration. A resurfacing treatment can sometimes make the skin dry, so it’s important to protect it with a “second skin” in the form of a serum. The best will be specifically designed for microneedling. Seek out a serum formulated with a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, plus zinc and vitamin B to promote skin healing and help reduce the appearance of redness or inflammation.

Cover and Recover with Moisturizer + SPF Protection

Using a lightweight moisturizing cream with a full spectrum sunscreen is the final step in your microneedling post care routine. You want to protect your face from the sun’s harmful rays and other environmental factors. Look for a non-comedogenic product with SPF 30 and other skin-beneficial ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, copper peptides, antioxidant-rich peppermint oil, and numerous vitamins. Your moisturizer should have a silky consistency with cooling peppermint and SPF protection. It shouldn’t feel heavy or clog your pores. Some of the best products can even act as an everyday foundation, available in several colors for post care treatment and beyond.

Following the appropriate skincare protocols with the best corrective ingredients is essential to your home care after microneedling procedures. You’ll not only aid your skin in healing and recovery, but you’ll also get the most out of your microneedling treatments. You can get a starter kit from your provider, dermatologist, or online from a trusted distributor.

5 Naturally-Derived Skincare Ingredients for Problematic Skin

Some patients may not have this on the top of their mind, but topical skincare ingredients that accompany microneedling procedures are just as important as the procedure itself to help achieve optimal treatment outcomes. The ultimate formulas are hydrating and contain replenishing correctives, such as peptides, multivitamins, and antioxidant-rich, organically-sourced botanicals, that are carefully chosen for skin needling treatments. Let’s look at a few naturally-derived ingredients that can help achieve the optimal treatment outcomes for microneedling results.

 


Kojic Acid

Kojic acid has antifungal properties because it is naturally derived from fungi. Its best uses in skincare are for brightening the appearance of dark sunspots, age spots, acne scars, and any other uneven coloring. Kojic acid also has antibacterial properties to help reduce the appearance of inflammation, which is why you often see kojic acid in acne skincare products. To target pigmentation issues, try a mask or serum with kojic acid as part of your microneedling treatment course or for everyday use.

Licorice Root

You’ll often see kojic acid and licorice root in the same skincare products. Licorice root has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory skin-soothing properties. It’s used to reduce the appearance of redness and irritation. Licorice root is a natural alternative to a skin-lightening chemical called hydroquinone. Licorice root contains glabridin, which inhibits an enzyme that causes pigmentation in response to sun exposure. A serum that contains licorice root is beneficial before resurfacing treatments and for microneedling post care as well.

Manuka Honey

Manuka is a specialty honey from New Zealand and has many skin-beneficial uses. It naturally wards off core-clogging bacteria, calms the skin to lessen the look of redness and irritation, and is a supreme hydrator. Lactic acid, also known as a “sensitive skin hero,” is a great partner to manuka honey because it naturally exfoliates dead skin cells and encourages healthy cell turnover. One other star ingredient is salicylic acid because it’s effective at preventing breakouts. These three ingredients together are excellent acne fighters. Look for a microneedling post care kit that contains these powerful ingredients.

Aloe Juice

You may already be familiar with aloe—a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich botanical. It’s naturally abundant in vitamins C, E, and A. Aloe is known to soothe irritation and help rejuvenate the appearance of one’s complexion. It’s also an excellent hydrator. A gentle, versatile cleanser and exfoliant in-one with aloe as one of the ingredients will leave the skin feeling clean and fresh.

Resveratrol

Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory sourced from the skin of red grapes. Resveratrol’s antibiotic-like qualities and free-radical fighting abilities are more powerful than vitamin C or idebenone. To strengthen vulnerable complexions, choose a vitamin-rich formula with resveratrol as one of the key performing ingredients to promote intensive repair.

To start with a skincare routine for microneedling, talk to your dermatologist or practitioner about the best products on the market to use. Many offices carry specific skincare lines to help their patients achieve optimal treatment outcomes.

Are Wrinkles Inevitable or Can You Prevent Them?

While you can’t turn back the clock on your chronological age, you can effectively slow down and reduce the signs of intrinsic and extrinsic aging. So, what does that mean?



There are a few factors that cause skin to look wrinkled. Keep in mind that after about the age of 20, you start to produce around 1% less collagen in the skin each year. It’s just a fact: Gradually wrinkles will form as a result of aging. The natural aging process of internal influences is called intrinsic aging.

The process of glycation is the main cause of systemic (intrinsic) aging. Glycation happens when sugar molecules bind to collagen proteins, causing the proteins to cross link and create AGEs (Advanced Glycation End products), which reduces collagen and elastin production. The appearance of glycation is characterized by crisscrossed wrinkles that you see on cheeks, near the eyes, and on the neck.

Sun’s Damaging Rays

Meanwhile, we are aging extrinsically as well. Exposure to radiation in the sun’s rays is a top cause of extrinsic aging. UVA and UVB rays are responsible for skin damage. UVA rays are relatively low energy among UV rays but are contributors to skin aging, such as wrinkles. UVB rays have more energy than UVA rays and are associated with conditions such as skin cancer. Smoking and exposure to pollution are other extrinsic aging factors. Extrinsic aging appears in all sorts of forms including a noticeable loss of collagen, elastin, the appearance of uneven tone, roughness, brown patches, and deep wrinkles.

The best way to minimize the look of wrinkles is to protect your skin—before noticeable changes start to take place. Ideally, wear sunscreen with broad spectrum SPF to protect against UVA and UVB rays every single day of the year. How often do you wear an appropriate sunblock?

Microneedling May Be Suitable for You

Microneedling is another method that may help reduce the appearance of signs of aging, such as wrinkles. The minimally invasive procedure involves a handheld tool with tiny needles. This tool creates tiny punctures in the top layers of your skin, which stimulate your skin’s natural response to heal, in turn boosting collagen and elastin production. The result is skin that appears plumper, smoother, and softer. Microneedling can also help reduce the appearance of age spots. But to get the most out of microneedling results, you need to use products that are designed to help heal and protect the skin as well.

A high-quality microneedling serum that helps smooth and plump skin with a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, plus potent antioxidants will also promote younger-looking skin. You can get these types of products from your dermatologist, which are used in a clinical setting. You can also buy topical products online from a reputable company like Dp Derm, used in pre and post care to achieve optimal treatment outcomes at home. Perhaps you can’t technically fully prevent wrinkles, but you can take measures to lessen the appearance of wrinkles and the visual effects of aging.

About Dp Derm

Dp Derm is the U.S. distributor of one of the world’s most trusted brands, Dp Dermaceuticals. Dp Dermaceuticals is an innovative line of skincare that is designed especially for microneedling procedures. Microneedling post care is just as important as the procedure itself, which is why Dp Dermaceuticals is dedicated to bringing practitioners and their patients the best skin needling products on the market.

4 of the Best Non-Surgical Rejuvenation Treatments for Your Skin

Eventually skin gets worn by time, sun exposure, and life in general. Our faces tell a story of where we’ve been. While there’s certainly nothing wrong with owning your story, there’s a growing population of women and men who want to put their best face forward. After all, your skin is a reflection of vitality and health.

 


If you’re thinking about softening a furrowed brow, evening out some patchy spots on your face, or fading the appearance of old scars, there are several non-surgical, subtle skin rejuvenation procedures to consider. Let’s take a look at four common treatment options worth exploring.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment performed by a doctor, such as a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. During the procedure a handheld tool with tiny needles punctures the top layers of your skin, creating microscopic wounds that stimulate your skin’s natural response to heal, boosting collagen and elastin production as a result. Treatments can improve the appearance skin tone (age spots), reduce the look of pore size, and fade the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks. Another benefit is that topical products designed specifically for microneedling can penetrate the deeper layers of the skin more effectively to maximize microneedling results.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a physical exfoliation where dead cells are removed from the surface of the skin. In this procedure, the doctor or esthetician uses a mildly abrasive instrument to exfoliate the outer layer to create smoother-looking skin. It’s a type of skin rejuvenation that’s used to improve the appearance of light scarring, skin discoloration, lines and wrinkles, and stretch marks.

Laser Resurfacing

Different laser options are optimized for different skin types and skin issues. Your plastic surgeon or dermatologist can perform a laser treatment to address moderate to deep lines and wrinkles and significantly improve the appearance of skin tone in addition to texture and elasticity. With this procedure, lasers vaporize skin cells damaged at the surface level. The two most common lasers used in resurfacing are carbon dioxide (CO2) and erbium. Talk to your doctor to help you determine which type of laser therapy is best for you.

Be sure to ask your dermatologist about the products you can use after your procedure. You could even inquire about the products they’re using in-office. Some of the best practitioners may even offer or know of special skincare kits for microdermabrasion, laser resurfacing, and microneedling post care to help you achieve optimal treatment outcomes with skin-loving ingredients.

Chemical Peel

Unlike a physical exfoliation process such as microdermabrasion, a chemical peel uses an acid solution to dissolve dead skin cells and remove the top layers of the epidermis. Peels are used to improve the texture of your skin and make it appear smoother. People get chemical peels to reduce the appearance of fine lines under the eyes and around the mouth, improve the look of minor scars, and reduce the appearance of age spots and dark patches. The effects of a chemical peel may vary based on how deeply it penetrates, which is determined by the type and strength of the solution used.

It’s important to look at your options for skin rejuvenation carefully as well as choose accredited and reputable practitioners to perform the procedures. The products you apply to your face are equally important if you want to make the most of your treatments.

Dp Derm is the U.S. distributor of Dp Dermaceuticals—one of the world’s most trusted skincare brands for microneedling procedures. Dp Dermaceuticals offers skincare products used to enhance and complement clinical rejuvenation procedures.

Medical Skin Procedures Designed to Tackle Acne

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to treating acne. Those who have stubborn acne or scarring have likely tried everything from prescription medications to topical creams to corrective skincare products to clinical procedures.

 


If you are someone with stubborn acne and scarring, talk to your dermatologist about the best course of action for you. If you aren’t aware of treatments available, here are a few in-office procedures that may diminish the appearance of acne scars.

Microneedling

A collagen-boosting procedure such as microneedling may improve the look of acne scars and associated symptoms, including redness and inflammation. A microneedling treatment delivers a number of micro-channels into the skin. What that means is tiny needles pierce the skin through a handheld electronic device, creating nearly microscopic “wounds” in the skin. In response to this, the body produces collagen, which gives the face a fuller look while reducing the appearance of uneven skin texture and acne scarring. The process also accelerates cellular turnover to release embedded congestion. After microneedling sessions, a patient should pay close attention to their microneedling post care by using professional skincare products that will help enhance the outcome of the clinical procedure.

One of the benefits of microneedling is that it increases the penetration of skin-beneficial ingredients in topical formulas, which in turn can improve effectiveness. To maximize microneedling results, you’ll want to establish a skincare routine with products recommended by your dermatologist.

Chemical Peel

More powerful results can often be achieved when microneedling is combined with other forms of treatment. One such combination treatment is a chemical (acid) peel. There are different types of chemical peels that penetrate different layers of the skin, but your dermatologist can help you decide which one is best for your skin. For the procedure, a chemical solution is applied to the face to help unclog pores, remove dead skin cells, and address blemishes. Over the next week or so, your skin will flake or “peel” off to reveal regenerated, smoother skin. Chemical peels can be used to address both acne and scarring. Some of the benefits may include smoother texture and tone, lightening of dark spots, and unclogging of pores to help prevent future breakouts. More traditional uses of chemical peels include lessening the appearance of fine lines and damage from the sun.

Blue Light Therapy

Another combination treatment for acne involves light. Skin inflammation and redness that often accompanies acne is caused by certain bacteria that can be killed by exposing your skin to different types of light. This noninvasive form of phototherapy uses light in the blue wavelength range to kill the bacteria. It can be used on current acne or to help prevent a future outbreak. While blue light therapy is promising, typically it alone won’t completely clear up acne.

High Frequency (aka Tesla High Frequency Current)

High frequency devices come in varying designs, but they are all made to deliver just the right frequency of electrical current to your skin through a glass electrode placed on your face. Oxygen is generated when applied to your skin, which helps to calm inflammation and kill bacteria. The electrode produces a gas called argon that’s good for your skin and emits a small electrical current.

The Dp Dermaceuticals skincare line is designed and developed for microneedling procedures to ensure patients get the very most out of their treatments before, during, and after. Specialty products like their multipurpose microneedling serum should be used during the course of treatment, because what a patient does at home to take care of their skin is just as important as the procedure itself. When it comes to microneedling, some things are nonnegotiable, such as the products you apply topically to achieve optimal treatment outcomes.

The Importance of Microneedling Pre & Post Care Products

As with any cosmetic skin procedure, it’s important to know how to care for your skin properly before and after a microneedling treatment to achieve the best outcomes. Much of this care involves choosing the right products for your skin.

 



Microneedling is a powerful, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that’s designed to help improve the skin’s surface by reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, and acne scars. A handheld electronic device with tiny needles pierces the skin to create minor, nearly microscopic “wounds” in the skin, which prompts it to stimulate collagen production.

The treatment also provides a clear channel for topical serums to be absorbed through the surface of the skin. This is why what you put on your face is extremely important to get the most from your microneedling results.

Consult the Experts

Talk to your dermatologist about the best products to use for preparing and strengthening the skin before undergoing a treatment course and what to use after each procedure. It’s not always easy to know what to use and when—especially when it comes to home care. Take the guesswork out by using a range of products that are created specifically for microneedling. You can sometimes use the same formulas on your skin before and after.

Use High-Quality Products

Ask your practitioner about the ultimate microneedling post care (and pre-care) products for at-home maintenance. You can often get starter kits that are designed to set you up with an appropriate skincare routine. They should be used to complement your clinical rejuvenation treatments and engineered to work with skin needling procedures. High-quality products are nonnegotiable when it comes to microneedling pre and post care.

Learn About Key Ingredients

Find a serum that you can use before, after, and even during your treatment.The deeper layers of the skin want to be hydrated and nourished with vitamins, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory trace minerals like zinc. Zinc accelerates wound healing and is vital in collagen and elastin synthesis.

Here’s another important ingredient to seek out: hyaluronic acid. A microneedling serum that utilizes three different weights of the hyaluronic acid molecule is ideal for long-lasting, deep hydration. A high-quality serum with this ingredient should also aid in skin repair and the development of healthy cells. Hyaluronic acid is essential for maintaining the skin’s hydration, and it contributes to your skin’s protective barrier function.

Follow Best Practices

The microneedling treatment area is vulnerable after a procedure because your skin is trying to heal. Microneedling usually causes mild skin redness, similar to a sunburn, that may last for a few days.

Here are some best practices to keep in mind following a microneedling procedure:

• If there’s mild pain, don’t take any anti-inflammatory medications, just acetaminophen like Tylenol.

• Stay out of direct sunlight for at least 72 hours to protect skin from the sun.

• Don’t wear makeup for 24 hours.

• Avoid swimming or spending time in a hottub for 48 hours.

• Limit or avoid strenuous activities or environments that encourage sweating because it opens the pores, which could cause bacteria to enter the skin’s punctures, possibly leading to a reaction or infection.

About Dp Derm

It’s the only skincare range specifically designed for microneedling procedures.

A Few Facts & FAQs About Microneedling for Patients

If someone is considering getting microneedling treatments to improve their skin’s appearance, they probably have some questions they need answered before arriving to their appointment for the procedure.

To help explain how the process works, here are some frequently asked questions regarding medical microneedling—a skin rejuvenating procedure that involves fine needles puncturing the top layers of skin.
What Does Microneedling Do?

Using a handheld device that resembles a pen, a licensed practitioner—such as a dermatologist or plastic surgeon—creates tiny, nearly microscopic “wounds” in the skin. These micro-punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing process, forcing it to increase collagen and elastin production.

Who Should Try Microneedling?

This minimally-invasive, multipurpose treatment targets everything from scars to cellulite.

Microneedling results in an improvement in the appearance of acne scars, wrinkles, large pores, loose skin, and stretch marks, among other benefits. Just about anyone could benefit from the procedure, which typically doesn’t necessitate any downtime.

Is It the Same as Cosmetic Needling?

Medical microneedling can only be performed by a physician or licensed esthetician in some states. It’s more effective than cosmetic microneedling because medical needles are longer and can get to the skin’s deeper layers, making it possible to break up scar tissue and stimulate collagen production.

What Can a Patient Expect During the Procedure?

The face or treatment area will be numbed with topical anesthesia about 30 minutes before the procedure. The area is then cleaned off, and the procedure is performed with a microneedling device to break down old scar tissue and increase cell turnover. A collagen-stimulating product like an intensely hydrating microneedling serum should be used during the treatment. When a microneedling device is used with topical serums, the skin is able to absorb vitamins, enzymes, lipids, and other ingredients more effectively. Depending on the type of skin surface being treated, it usually takes anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour to perform a microneedling treatment. The skin’s natural repair process begins almost immediately.

Why Is After-Care as Important as the Treatment Itself?

The treatment area is very vulnerable after a microneedling procedure because it’s in the process of healing. One of the most valuable things to do is pay attention to your microneedling post care by choosing products that are designed specifically to work with skin needling procedures. To achieve the best results, use products that hydrate, heal, and protect the skin, such as those infused with hyaluronic acid. Avoid products that have not been tested or found safe to use with microneedling.

What Else Should a Patient Do After Treatment?

Microneedling usually causes mild skin redness that may last for a few days. Patients should protect their skin from the sun by staying out of direct sunlight for 72 hours and not wear makeup for 24 hours. They should also avoid or limit activities or environments that encourage sweating because it opens the pores, which could cause bacteria to enter the skin’s punctures, possibly leading to a reaction or infection.

The Basics and Benefits of Microneedling

For people who’ve tried all of the latest serums and creams on the market to address their skin issues, but simply are not getting their desired outcome, there’s another option. It’s a procedure called microneedling.

 

 

As the name implies, in a microneedling procedure tiny needles are used to create small punctures in the top layer of the skin, which then triggers the body to heal the wounds by stimulating collagen and elastin production. Many find that microneedling results in a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. Plus,it encourages more vibrant and healthy-looking skin. Here are a few more details about medical microneedling and what you can expect.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling—also called collagen induction therapy—is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a hand-held electric device with tiny needles to pierce the skin. The body responds by producing collagen and elastin fibers, which causes the skin to become fuller, reducing the appearance of acne scars, uneven skin texture, and stretch marks as a result.

Who Should Perform the Procedure?

Microneedling is a professional procedure performed by a board-certified dermatologist, cosmetic surgeon, or a licensed aesthetician under the supervision of a doctor in some states. You should schedule an appointment with a professional and ask specific questions about the process and whether you are a strong candidate before having the treatment done.

What Are the Benefits?

As mentioned, microneedling is used to reduce the appearance of scarring, fine lines, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone, among other skin concerns. Collagen and elastin help heal the skin and the areas around it, which can lead to a reduction in the appearance of minor scars and fine lines while promoting elasticity in the skin.

Additionally, microneedling procedures can help topically-applied corrective ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, penetrate deeper into the skin to work more effectively and give skin the hydration and antioxidants it needs. You should notice firmer skin and a brighter complexion, although your skin may be red and irritated for a few days afterward.

Important: Post Care

Taking care of your skin after a microneedling procedure is one of the most crucial steps. You want to be gentle on your skin but use potent products recommended by your dermatologist. Products specifically designed for use with microneedling will enhance the outcome of the microneedling procedure and ensure that the deeper layers of the skin are hydrated and nourished with vitamins, anti-inflammatories, and antioxidants. A recommended key ingredient in microneedling post care is a triple-weighted hyaluronic acid complex to promote maximum hydration. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant, so look for a high-quality vitamin-rich repair formula that contains it as well as vitamin A esters.

Is It Painful?

While you may wince at the thought of tiny needles pricking your skin to trigger your body’s natural healing process, it may be worth it to achieve the radiance you are looking for. The treatment isn’t painless, but it isn’t excruciating either. Additionally, a numbing cream is often applied topically to help prepare the skin for the procedure and minimize discomfort. The practitioner will make three to four passes with a pen-like tool over each treatment region to ensure even and complete coverage. Microneedling can be done once every four to six weeks. Scar reduction treatment requires three to six sessions while collagen induction requires at least three treatments.
