Hello, there are no contraindications with anti-depressant medication when receiving a Microneedling treatment. People who have a history of keloid or raised scarring, eczema, psoriasis, Herpes Simplex infections, diabetes, presence of raised moles, warts or any raised lesions on targeted area should not receive treatment. Absolute contraindications include scleroderma, collagen vascular diseases or cardiac abnormalities, Rosacea and blood clotting problems, active bacterial or fungal infection, immunosuppression and scars less than 6 months old.Do not let the contraindications intimidate you from receiving a treatment.
