Is antibiotic ointment safe to use after microneedling?

February 16, 2018
Asked By:heda44 in Brampton, ON

Hi, so I tried microneedling, and applied snail and bee serum afterwards, and sealed it with an antibiotic ointment containing bacitracin Zinc and polymyxin b, mixed in just white petroleum. Is this fine? Will any of the ingredients in the antibiotic ointment cause breakouts?
