How long should I wait to have a facial hair laser removal after a microneedling session?

Question

Sonia Badreshia-Bansal, MD · Answer

It would be prudent to wait at least 4 to 6 weeks after microneedling to have laser hair removal.  Generally laser treatment is not performed on skin that has been treated and healing. Be sure to be under the care of a Board Certified Dermatologist.

Thank you for your question. I would wait at least 1 week before doing a laser hair removal treatment. Please make sure you get a in person consultation from a board-certified dermatologist.

Thank you for your question! Microneedling creates microscopic channels in the skin for collagen stimulation. Typically after a session the skin can be slightly red or pink and feel dry. I recommend having laser hair removal done as early as 2-3 days after microneedling. Best of luck!
