POST TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS FOR MICRONEEDLING /Micropenning & Stamping

Microneedling / Micropenning

Immediately after treatment:

Your skin will feel hot and look flushed for a few hours after treatment.

For the next 24 hours:

  1. Avoid touching your skin but if you must, wash your hands before you do.
  2. Gently cleanse your skin with a mild cleanser that does not contain any active ingredients.
  3. Apply the post care cream “rescue” from your kit as often as needed for the first 24-48 hours. This is the recommended moisturizer to be using during this time when you skin is especially sensitive.
  4. Use a physical sunblock 30-50 SPF and try to avoid direct sun exposure.

Days 2-7:

  1. Continue with gentle cleanser morning and night.
  2. Use gentle moisturizer morning and night and as needed.
  3. As your skin begins to slough and lightly peel, it may feel dry (like sandpaper) no matter how much moisturizer is used. This is normal, and will resolve once sloughing has subsided. This process may last for a couple of days.
  4. To assist the sloughing process, apply Jan Marini Skin Zyme Mask for 15-20 min, then gently remove with a clean wet wash cloth once a day for 2-3 days until the sloughing has resolved.

After one week:

  1. Slowly resume your active products as tolerated.
  2. Continue with physical sunblock every day.
  3. Best results are usually seen between 2-3 months after treatment.
  4. Treatments are generally recommended once a month for an initial series of three followed by maintenance treatments once every six months. Be sure to discuss your individual goals with your practitioner as the process can vary depending on the goals.
