Best post serum for microneedling?

Question

Hi, I read different reviews about serum/cream to use after microneedling procedure. Please guide me on which serums are the BEST to use, how many times a day AM & PM. Which day should I start using the serum for post microneedling? I read great reviews on Skinmedica TNS Recovery Complex & Sente Dermal Repair Cream. Any advice/suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thank you all!

Hi @hpyu! I recommend  a Hyaluronic Acid Serum and Alastin Skincare has a great Regenerating Skin Necktar. It really helps with the healing process. I would use these two products several times a day for 5-7 days post procedure.

Hello Microneedling is one of our Estheticians favorite treatments.  Our recommendations to our patients are hyaluronic acid, growth factor and hydrating peptides post microneedling are great.  Try to avoid any active ingredients such as salicylic, glycolic, retin a, etc. You can start to use these products directly after just avoid makeup for at least 24 hours after your treatment.  The growth factor peptides from ZO is a great post micro needling skincare product and epidermal repair from SkinCueticals for recovery. We hope this helps!
