Can I take dapsone after microneedling?

Asked By:Ritella84 in Poughkeepsie, New York

Can I use dapsone/aczone to control acne 48 hours after microneedling? I read online that dapsone is an antibacterial as well as an anti-inflammatory. I'm concerned with it counteracting the beneficial inflammatory processes but I also don't want to run the risk of breaking out.
