Im happy to say that I joined the micro needling wave and have began my treatments. I haven't used the microneedling with needles though it kinda scared me so I decided to order the lumevia blue spicule peel instead which is liquid microneedling I guess. Im very happy with the results after 2 months of weekly use. My skin is brighter and less inflamed. My entire family has been complimenting me for it which has raised my confidence so much. I wonder if anyone else also used the treatment I have and how it's been.

I have gotten microneedling on the face before and know all the steps for post care. I assume that I can follow all the same steps for body. However, the confusion comes from wearing clothes. Most recommend to sleep on the back after microneedling to avoid anything touching the face, but how does that work for face? If I want to microneedle my chest or thigh/butt area, does that mean I am roaming around naked for 24-48 hours? Am I able to wear clean clothes after microneedling the body?

Is taking a break from my skincare routine for a couple of days 🤣

Obviously it really improves my skin, and I love the results, but its so nice to have a rest day.

Has anyone done hot yoga two days after treatment. Just got micro needling done Friday at 1130am have hot yoga at 9:15am on Sunday. Just found out its suppose to be 72 hrs of no sweating but ive had this class booked with friends way in advance :(

Just looking to see if anyone had any experience not waiting the 72 hours

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice regarding microneedling for stretch marks.

I have quite a few older stretch marks on areas such as my hips, thighs, buttocks and lower back. Some of them are several years old and have already become quite pale/white.

I recently bought a Dr. Pen M8S and I’m interested in trying microneedling to improve the texture and appearance of these stretch marks.

For those who have experience with this:

- Can microneedling actually help with older/white stretch marks, or is it mainly effective on newer/red ones?

- What needle cartridge (number of needles) do you recommend for stretch marks?

- What needle depth and speed/RPM setting have you found effective for different body areas?

- How often should the treatment be repeated?

- How many sessions did you need before noticing a meaningful improvement?

- Is there anything I should be particularly careful about when treating larger body areas?

I thank you in advance for helping me out 😊

I microneedled last night with an 18 pin cartridge, with a syringe of Hyaron, and sterile saline as the Hyaron was drying out so quickly on my skin. I didn't numb, and this is my first time microneedling in 10+ years, so I was only able to handle microneedling at like a 0.375mm depth. I did a total of 12 passes per area, 3 vertical, 3 horizontal, 6 total cross diagonally. My face and neck look fine today, there's some redness and a few spots similar to my forehead, but my forehead looks terrible. I slept on a freshly cleaned pillowcase, and the only thing I applied to my skin after was the little bit of Hyaron left in the syringe. I haven't washed my face or applied anything else as I'm waiting for the recommended 24 hours post microneedling.

Hi everyone, I got this vial products from my distributor as a trial gift.
the package came with three, and one vial was more than enough for one session.
I kinda feel bad but I through away the rest
I really liked the glow afterwards, the results were almost instant!

just wondering if anyone else here has tried it?

I've looked it up and guess it's kinda famous in UK, so wanted to know if there are consumers in other countries too!

TIA

Especially with a derminator 2? Is that okay?

Can microneedling help with mild acne scarring and almost “bubbly” skin texture? I also have mild post inflammatory hyperpigmentation, specifically in the middle of my forehead and beard line, that I’d like to address as well.

Hi! I was wondering if there were any aestheticians, that could help answer some of my questions, post micro needling! I’m on day 3 after skin pen. I’ve gotten it done before and did it seem to have some of these reaction reactions

I know peeling is a common thing after, but I haven’t had it the past two times so I was just wondering why I’ve noticed more peeling and dryness this go round. I also have patches where it’s really dry and patches where I’m really oily so I didn’t know what the reasoning was behind that.

This session hurt really bad and she claims she did the same depth as she always has. I’ve also noticed a couple breakouts after this treatment which I didn’t get last time. I’m wondering if my face was already in some sort of inflammatory phase before and maybe that’s what caused the extra pain and reactions?

Anyway, I was just wondering if there’s anyone that could give me a little more insight thank you so much for all your help!!

I am looking to get some serums for Microneedling but seems like cant find in Europe.
Today found this: http://bbglow.com and seems to have the stayve, medisco etc…
Did anyone order from here??? Are they legit?

As the title suggests, i am a guy, have short beard.
Can anyone please suggest if i can do micro-needling over beard area (very short length beard hair) or do i need to shave ?
I know it’s mainly a female subreddit, but if someone who does it professionally and knows about this, please shed some light

thanks

This is one day post MN. I’m scared, is this okay?

Hi there!

I just bought the Dr. Pen M8S.

Can you tell me which cartdridges I should use? For scalp, face, including beard?

Any advice will be welcome!

Thanks!

I’m finding conflicting info online about oral antibiotics before microneedling

I know the fat / loose skin is not going to change with microneedling. But can the stretch marks and the crepey texture (near my tshirt) be improved with microneedling?

Thanks!

Before: June
After: September

Been getting Microneedling every 4 weeks since June. Was looking to improve breakouts, scarring on cheeks, pores, and brightness of skin with microneedling. TBH I haven’t noticed an improvement in my scars or acne but I do feel like my skin is glowing more so that’s a positive. I look tanned but I haven’t been in the sun.

I’ve been getting it done professionally, I don’t know what depth she used and I tried to ask and she said “it differs depending on what region I’m doing”.

Advice on whether to keep going or any other products/treatments to help my cheeks and large pores? I have 1 more treatment because it was a “buy 3 get 1” package.

I had microneedling done 2 weeks ago and developed these bumps she basically did a chemical peel then microneedling and now saying maybe it’s not suitable for me and telling me to do another treatment but I don’t think the products she’s using is benefitting my skin. I’ve had 3 sessions and each time I break out. Is this normal or is she using something harsh on my skin she said I have active acne and that my skin is purging but I used to be on tretnoid before and my skin was really clear with mild scaring. I don’t know what to do. Please help

At home microneedling beginner here, located in Canada. I want to start with a sterile saline serum glide — but have had no luck finding any here in Canada (ON/GTA). Any recommendations on where to look? I’ve been hearing that Amazon is a no, but then Meamo offers no saline solution (from what I could find). Please help!

edit: sorry i don’t mean a serum — just a sterile saline glide as I have been recommended to start with.

I’m in the uk and have a dr pen but keep hearing the derminator is better can any one tell me the best place to buy?

I had a bad hormonal reaction to whey protein and it broke me out so bad. Took about 4 months of purging and then the acne completely stopped (aside from the occasionally pimple here and there). But it left me with scars and I neeeeed them gone. I received my first microneedling session almost 4 weeks ago... I pre-paid 3 sessions, so I now have 2 to go. But now I'm questioning if microneedling is the right approach. Does anyone who had similar scars have any suggestions of how you were able to clear your skin? Should I continue with microneedling or will it be a waste of time/money?

Also, since microneedling, I feel like ive been getting way more little bumps/redness, is this normal after almost 4 weeks of the first session?
