If you are thinking about trying skin needling but feel unsure about the recovery time, this post will clear things up. At Moore Beautiful, we believe in being upfront about what to expect so you can plan ahead and get the best results from your treatment.
Immediately after your session, your skin may look pink or red, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually fades within 24 to 48 hours. Some people experience slight tightness or dryness. You may also have mild flaking a few days later as your skin begins to renew itself. This is completely normal.
The most important part of healing is how you care for your skin afterwards. We provide a detailed aftercare guide and only recommend high quality products that are proven to work with post needling skin.
Your therapist will recommend either DP Dermaceuticals or O Cosmedics, depending on your skin goals. These products contain calming and hydrating ingredients that protect your skin barrier and support recovery. We will also remind you to avoid makeup for at least 24 hours and protect your skin from the sun with a broad spectrum SPF.
By following your aftercare plan closely, you will minimise downtime and maximise the benefits of your treatment. You may start to see improvements in texture and clarity within a week, with continued results over the following weeks.
