No! We ensure your comfort with our free medical grade topical numbing cream prior to the procedure!

The microneedling pen will move quickly across the skin, and will feel somewhat prickly, but tolerable due to the topical numbing cream. The numbing time is about 30 minutes, and the microneedling process itself usually takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on skin thickness and targeted skin needs. So, the average total treatment time for microneedling is about one hour.

Downtime after microneedling is minimal, but you can expect to have several days of erythema (redness), some sensitivity, and tiny abrasions to the skin. There will most likely be pinpoint bleeding during the treatment, which will stop almost immediately. The skin tends to take on a “bronzed” appearance for several days post treatment.Then this bronzed outer layer of skin will begin to flake off, revealing a fresh and glowing new you underneath. It is recommended that you stay away from the sun and avoid strenuous exercise for 2 weeks following treatment. Additionally, it is recommended that hot showers, baths, hot-tubs and saunas are avoided for about two weeks after microneedling as well, since the skin is more open. The opening of the skin through microneedling allows your skin care products to penetrate deeper in the skin.
