I had a skinpen treatment on Thursday night. Friday I had a bit of swelling and redness but not much. Saturday I had more redness and swelling and a burning tingling sensation in my skin. I had a hard time sleeping with the tingling, stinging, burning sensation going on and this morning (Sunday it is even worse). I tried Benadryl but it made no difference.

Hi jschapman6. Microneedling plus PRP is amazing! I do this procedure frequently and my patients love it. They feel that their skin is smoother, glows, and is softer. I frequently combine this with PRP to faster healing & response. I use the Microeclipse microneedling pen and I love it. Good...
Yes, waiting 4 weeks from your VI peel for a microneedling session gives the skin time to heal. Pairing VI peel with microneedling will help with acne scars, dark spots, and overall tone and texture of the skin.
SkinPen is a wonderful treatment to address fine lines, wrinkles, texture, and acne scars just to name a few! A series of three to four treatments spaced a months apart is recommended. Maintenance treatments can be elected as needed.
