and if so, how far in advance should i stop using the tretinoin?
Answer: Facial Rejuvenation -- PRP/Microneedling, Laser (Fraxel/Clear+Brilliant, Erbium/Co2), Venus Viva, Intensif, Salt Facial tretinoin doesnt need to be stopped before microneelding. I suggest you be on a well planned treamtment plan before starting your cosmetic treatments. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Tretinoin and microneedling If the patient has only recently begun the tretinoin, I recommend stopping the tretinoin for 5-7 days prior to treatment. If the patient is a long time user of tretinoin, then I allow as short as 2 days to minimize the redness after the microneedling. Hope this helps!Johnson C.

Answer: Should I stop Tetrinoin before microneedling? I like to have my patients hold on the Tetrinoin 2-3 days prior to microneedling because the skin might be more sensitive, but Tetrinoin will not interfere with the microneedling results.

Answer: Tretinoin and Microneedling Hi mrslim7,Avoid any known skin irritants such as retinoids, tretinoin, and alpha hydroxyl acids 3-5 days prior to microneedling treatment unless otherwise directed by your clinician. These agents can make skin more sensitive. If you have skin conditions, psoriasis, cystic or inflammatory acne or cold sores, inform your clinician.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.
