Micro needling with Infrared Laser?

Natural123Jan 27, 2016
Hello can Micro Needling be combined with Skin Tightening infrared laser? I was told by my facial esthetician to only do micro needling 2 months apart. Only mild peel can be done in between. I still have some slack and deeper .nasal fold lines. I am 42 years old. Also creepy eyelids starting. I have had one micro needling treatment so far.

This would be considered one of the possible responses to microneedling, and there can be a variety of reasons why your skin responded in this way.  I would not get another microneedling treatment in the area, and would seek a local provider who has experience with hyperpigmentation. ...

Gentle cleansing with a brush or microdermabrasion can be done several days after microneedling. Dr Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member
