Microneedling after cataract surgery around eyes?

January 31, 2024
Asked By:missyladybug in Leavenworth, Washington

I am beginning a program of Scarlet microneedling on face and neck, which includes under eyes as well as upper eye lids. The program is to have the procedure every six weeks, for a total of six procedures. Sometime during this process, I will be getting cataract surgery in both eyes. Is it safe to follow through after surgery to have microneedling? Or should I postone treatments with Scarlet ?
