Microcurrent Pre and Post-Treatment Instructions

Pre-Treatment Instructions

Focus on establishing a healthy skin with a strong barrier by using hydrating serums and moisturizers prior to your Microneedling treatment. Avoid Retinol and alpha hydroxy acids for 5 days leading up to your treatment. For those who get cold sores you might consider taking Lysine or Antiviral Medication 3 days prior and 3 days post treatment.

Post-Treatment Instructions

After your treatment you will be pink and feel like you have a slight sunburn. This resolves for most within 24 hours. After your treatment your skin will respond differently to topical products. It is important to only use what your esthetician has told you to use for the first 5 days following your microneedling treatment.
