ORIGINAL POST

Nightmare Microneedling Experience

Last week I had my second treatment. The first time it went well, the second time was deeper. My skin is getting worse every day since. Loss of firmness, scarring, cracks or deeper wrinkles and enlarged pores. I look horrible and 10 years older. Feel very ashamed to post this before ans after pictures. But I want to warn everybody who is considering this treatment. And I could really do with some advice who to proceed from here. I read that there is a FB group. Is it possible to join?

Was this from rf microneedling?
Hi deedee911, no it was from a Dermapen 4
I have the same damage from microneedling. I’m a little over a year out: it gets worse before it gets better . Psoria gold products are slooowly helping . I am so sorry this happened to you. In the group, there are a lot of us who got damaged and devastated by microneedling treatments.
Are you saying the skin hwts worse before it gets better or simply from a psychological standpoint?
My skin was damaged from micro needling done at my dermatologist office in 12/2020, I had a consultation and asked if it was right for me, having rosacea and was told yes, WRONG I had great skin before micro needling I had managed the rosacea with good skin care and laser, now my skin is so bad, a year later still have red pin pricks all over my face, more broken vessels and red patches than ever, my skin flares up looks likes hives, orange peel and swollen, burning sensation lasts days, healing takes weeks…I thought I had been having allergic reaction but realized it has been from the procedure. I get so depressed, hate myself for not researching micro needling till now, it is an atrocity how the dermatologist office had an inexperienced person consulting. I have had 7 PDL treatments didn’t touch the damage caused by micro-needling or reduce ANY Redness. I am suffering through another flare-up now and yes feel like it aged my skin. Reading the other posts kills me.is there still a support group??
Yes there is a support group on face book. I will message you details because it is kept very private since we share our photos and stories it needs to be confidential
Please add me to your facebook group. I have similar experience with microneedling. Please and thank you.
Hey, the same thing has happened to
Me with the Morpheus 8. I already had mild rosacea but now I’m red all over (I suspect the micro needling exacerbated it). Have you tried IPL in case it is microneedling induced rosacea? I’m going to try and give it a go, hopefully that will work.
Please dm me as well.
I would also like to be added to this group. Since doing the microneedling pen my face has aged years within a month and I am devastated.
Hi Darla, you have to sent a private message to Kaja Beazleigh on FB and just tell her you’re from realself and have skin damage

To protect the privacy of the group, you have to private message Kaja Beazleigh and just tell her you’re from realself and had skin damage from a procedure. She will then let you in … it’s highly sensitive since we all post our photos .. I hope you understand and message her soon xoxo
