Which treatment should be done first: IPL or microneedling?

Thanks for a nice softball questions. There are very few questions that there is one right answer - this is one of those times. In our office most people stack multiple treatments on the same day and you HAVE to get the order right.IPL or BBL (any brand of these treatments based on light - often called PhotoFacials). has to be done first. You have to carefully observe the skin, doing several rounds of test patches to get it right. If the skin is already pink or even bleeding from another treatment, you can't do this critical safety step.Next, BBL - at the beginning, before you've done anything else to disguise how the skin is reacting. For you, if you're only also doing MN, do that next. For other people who may be stacking more: smoothing of bumps and lines, eye treatments, no-downtime collagen boosters, fractional or even full resurfacing, if the physician does offer stacked treatments, they need to know the order for all the treatments they are doing with you. Best!

Hi There-- Microneedling and IPL can be done in one session with great results. We do microneedling first, ten IPL. The resulting redness is much less than with microneedling alone.
