Should I get microneedling after a VI Peel? (Photos)

February 2, 2018
Asked By:beautywithin27 in Washington, DC

I got a VI Peel about 2 weeks ago and it left dark marks around my laugh lines that were not there before. I don’t see any improvement on my skin, and now I feel even more self conscious as I feel the peel made it worse. I went back to the doc today and she gave me a light peel, but I see no difference. I don’t want to get another peel because the down time is too long. Should I get microneedling in 2 weeks? I just want these scars from the peel gone and my face back to normal.
