What to Do and What to Avoid: How to Care for Skin After Microneedling

Microneedling activates your skin's renewal process, especially with radiofrequency like Morpheus8. But healing well means avoiding common mistakes. If you’re wondering how to care for skin after microneedling, here are key do’s and don’ts:

Do:

• Use a gentle cleanser for the first few days.

• Keep your skin hydrated with a soothing, non-comedogenic moisturizer.

• Wear sunscreen daily, even indoors.

• Sleep on a clean pillowcase and avoid touching your face.

Don’t:

• Don’t exfoliate or use retinol until your provider clears you.

• Don’t sweat excessively or expose your skin to heat (hot yoga, saunas).

• Don’t use makeup too soon, especially on red or flaky areas.

• Don’t pick scabs or flakes.

Your skin is working hard to regenerate collagen and repair micro-injuries. Gentle care ensures you don't disrupt the process.
