How much time should pass between SkinVive treatment and SkinPen microneedling (without RF)?

Question

I normally do skinpen microneedling every 8 weeks or so but just had a skinvive treatment. Do I need to wait a certain length of time before scheduling my microneedling?

Hello there LadyZin,

Wait about 2 weeks and it should be fine to go ahead with microneedling without RF after SkinVive treatment.  Good luck and be well.

Without RF you could do them at the same time.  If you space them apart I'd give the SkinVive at least a week to absorb before doing the micro needling.

I have been injecting Profhilo (now Skinvive in the U.S.) for many years already for conditions, like stretch marks and loose skin of the inner arms and thighs. In these cases, I have personally combined professionally performed manual microneedling with the injections in order to achieve a synergistic effect. I would not suggest RF microneedling, however, as the RF may interfere with the biomodulatory effects of the Skinvive. Hope this helps.

I love SkinVive for the beautiful hydration and textural changes it makes. It is a simple microdroplet injection technique of hyaluronic acid gel into the dermis.  Since this is the same area that microneedling addresses, I like to wait about 3 weeks before or after and SkinVive treatment.
