It's only been 4 days but my skin especially above my lip look horrible. Can't tell if it's dry skin or wrinkles which I didn't have before. I was not given anything to put on it afterwards. It was painful and I'd never do it again. Blotchy and horrible. I do not recommend this procedure at all. I'm sick about it! Hoping it will heal but right now I'm sick!!

Aww, you should be recommended by serums for post treatments. Your skin should be soak with hyalorunic acid serums, vit c or whichever is recommended by your derma.

I was given nothing and there were no recommendations at the time of service. Very nice woman, so I just put cold cloths on it and Nivea cream. Don't like it..at least so far. Think it's more for a younger woman perhaps.

aww tsk you might consider looking for different derma. Please purchase Vitamin C serum or Hyaluronic Acid which would help on your skin's collagen production. I am doing dermapen treatment and I am on my 6th treatment and i had the desired result so far compare to fraxel and derma roller.

I had 3 treatments spaced 2 months apart the last one has ruined my skin I have circle red marks total of 4 and wrinkles below my cheeks next to my mouth I wish I never did it if I were you I'd stay away from microneedling.

How are you looking today? Is it better? I wanted to have this treatment - have heard good things but now I'm not so sure.

I hear all the time women love the results...but not for me. It broke small capillaries in my face and really did nothing. Wouldn't do it again

I noticed lots more lines following treatments as well. I've tried several products and the only thing that has helped to soften the lines is a mask using: avocado, honey, olive oil, egg yolk, lemon juice, petroleum jelly. You can search online for these!
It seems that microneedling dries out the skin and if you are not applying the correct things after the treatments, it only seems to get worse! I'm still not sure if microneedling is bad though because my face and chest look better, my neck just looks a little worse.

Learning the hard way. I usually do my research...but thought surely they would tell you what to put on it afterwards. Still looks a little red and dry. Thank you for your comment!
