I've just bought a microneedling pen. Is it ok to use coconut oil straight after?

Question

Aurora DeJuliis, MD · Answer

Microneedling is a medical procedure that involves punctures into the skin with possible bleeding. The procedure needs to be performed in sterile conditions in order to avoid skin infection. Coconut oil right after is not advisable.

Hi kenny5,I really would advise you against using the microneedling pen on yourself. To be effective, the puncture should be deep enough to reach the dermis. You wouldn't achieve this by yourself because you need some numbing.Coconut oil isn't recommended.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.
