Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment to promote skin rejuvenation. A device with fine needles creates tiny punctures in the epidermis (top layer of the skin), which triggers the body to create new collagen and elastin. Results can include improved texture and firmness, as well as a reduction in scars, pore size, and stretch marks. 

1. Helps with old acne scars

2. Minimize your pores 

3. Tighten your skin improves with fine lines and wrinkles, loose skin, skin texture, brown spots, stretch marks, and pigment issues. 

*** Stop using multi vitamin , Retinol, Smoothface & vitamin E. 1 week BEFORE  & AFTER microneedling. *** 

Come back every 6 weeks. If you want to do aggressively for better results come in every 4 weeks. Come every 3 months for maintenance like a “pick me up skin”. 

Later on that day you might have a tight tingling skin. If you feel itchy splash your face with cool water. Don’t scratch it. Keep replenishing your skin with Awesthetic’s Hyaluronic acid, keep layering it on. Skin is going to feel really tight. Sometimes it’s going feel swollen and hot (that’s normal). Day 2 and day 3 it should start calming down, But you may still be red. If you’re going to any sporting event make sure you wear a baseball 🧢 so you don’t be in direct sun light. Day 3 or 4 you can apply toner, moisturizer sunscreen etc.. 

*Make sure you don’t apply make up for at least 24 hrs (the longer the better, of course) because all the oil and the dirt in our make up brushes can go back inside. So don’t use any products on the face. Please use gentle mild face wash nothing too harsh for the skin because it’s already raw, it’s already red. No Retinol , no Vitamin E for 1 full week (before & after) because it’s going to stings. Vitamin C is okay. Don’t touch your face at any time!

* Sometimes, skin can purge. So when the skin is purging basically you’re introducing new things to ur skin. It might break out for the first couple days. But it should clear up after.

* First time doing micro needling the results aren’t going to be amazing. But you’ll see a slight 20-40% difference. The second session you’ll see like a 40-60% better. 3rd session will be 60-90%. It’s going to look better and better every time.
