Is it normal to develop small white bumps 2 days after microneedling? My cheeks are also very itchy. (photos)

Question

I noticed I developed small white bumps today. Two days after my microneedling session. Is this normal? What can I do? It’s very itchy. Thank you.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

This can be typical after a microneedling treatment, due to the histamine release. I recommend following up with your Doctor about after care and skin care recommendations. We suggest all patients follow up with facials like Silk Peel Dermalinfusuion to hydrate, exfoliate and provide the skin with antioxidants. Sun protection is also essential. I always combine microneedling with prp and lasers to get the best outcomes. We do treatments every 3-6 weeks. Best, Dr. Emer
