Question

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. You should wait at least 7–10 days after microneedling before getting a facial to allow your skin time to heal. If you're planning to do both treatments, it's best to schedule the facial about a week before microneedling to properly prep the skin.

Hi @Empratt! I would wait at least 10 days after a microneedling treatment to get a facial. You want to avoid irritating your face.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

we do oxygen facials immediately after microneedling and enhance microneedling with AERIFY peeling mask right at the same time.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi Empratt

Recovery time is relatively short. You will have some redness for a couple of days and may see some minute pinprick marks. For more information about this procedure, please visit our website.

Thank you for your question! I would suggest holding off a week or so until you are completely healed from your microneedling procedure. Hope this helps!
