Do you have to bleed before microneedling is effective?

Asked By:Lynn47712 in Indianapolis, IN

I was told where I go for Botox that if you don't bleed while microneedling that it doesn't do any good. True? They weren't saying you had to bleed to know you had large bough needles or applying enough pressure but that it's actually the blood being rolled in that makes it effective.
