PhiBright Microneedling Afer Care
After a PhiBright Microneedling treatment, proper aftercare is crucial to optimally support the skin and achieve the best results. Since microneedling stimulates the skin through tiny micro-punctures, you need to ensure that the healing process proceeds smoothly and the skin remains protected.
Here are the key points for aftercare following a PhiBright Microneedling treatment:
1. Immediately After the Treatment
- Redness and Irritation: It is normal for the skin to be red and slightly irritated after the treatment. This may feel like a mild sunburn and usually subsides within a few hours to 48 hours.
- Sensitivity: The skin will be more sensitive immediately after the treatment and should be handled gently.
2. Cleansing and Skincare
- Gently Cleanse Your Face: Avoid using cleansers for 24 hours after the treatment. After this period, you can use a gentle, soap-free cleanser to keep the skin clean. Avoid harsh products that could irritate the skin.
- Avoid Makeup: For at least 24 to 48 hours after the treatment, refrain from using makeup to prevent infections and clogged pores.
- Moisturize: Apply the recommended moisturizers to soothe and hydrate the skin. Special products recommended for aftercare, such as soothing and healing serums, are ideal.
3. Avoid Sun Exposure
- Sunscreen is Crucial: Since the skin will be highly sensitive to UV radiation after the treatment, avoid direct sunlight for at least 1 week. After 24 hours, use a sunscreen with a high SPF (50+) to prevent pigmentation issues and sun damage.
- Avoid Intense Sun Exposure: Avoid sunbathing, tanning beds, or prolonged sun exposure until the skin is fully healed.
4. Avoid Certain Products
- Avoid Harsh Skincare Products: Do not use exfoliants, retinoids, AHA/BHA acids, vitamin C, or other strong active ingredients for at least one week after the treatment. These can further irritate the skin and disrupt the healing process.
- No Self-Tanners or Facial Treatments: Avoid self-tanners, chemical peels, or other invasive facial treatments for at least one week.
5. Avoid Physical Activities
- Avoid Sweating: Avoid intense physical activities, saunas, or steam baths in the first 48 hours after the treatment. Sweating can irritate the treated areas and lead to infections.
6. Healing Process
- Increased Collagen Production: The PhiBright Microneedling treatment stimulates collagen production, which takes time to show visible results. The final results may continue to improve over the next few weeks.
- No Scabbing: With PhiBright Microneedling, there is usually no scabbing like with other treatments, but light flaking or peeling of the skin may occur. Avoid pulling or scratching at the skin.
7. Long-Term Care
- Continuation of Treatment: Microneedling treatments often require multiple sessions for optimal results. Your practitioner will create a treatment plan tailored to your skin needs.
- Regular Moisturizing: Regularly use moisturizing products to continue supporting your skin.
Summary of Aftercare for PhiBright Microneedling:
- Protect Your Skin After the Treatment by avoiding harsh cleansers and products.
- Apply Sunscreen with high SPF and avoid direct sun exposure.
- Avoid Exfoliants, Retinoids, or Strong Acids for at least one week.
- Drink Plenty of Water and keep your skin well-hydrated with soothing moisturizers.
- Avoid Intense Sweating through exercise or sauna visits in the first 48 hours.
Proper aftercare following the PhiBright Microneedling treatment helps achieve the desired results and promotes faster skin healing.
