Can i use glycolic acid cream 10% after 0.25mm microneedling session?

January 29, 2019
Asked By:Jamkeen in Baku, AZ

I’m using 10% glycolic cream for quite a long time (my skin is quite used to it already). Recently i bought a microneedling roller with 0.25mm needles. Can i use my glycolic routine after microneedling session? O.25 needles make my skin just slightly pink, not too sensitive. Thanks!
