Before and after results of SkinPen microneedling at Mel Hornery Cosmetics, showcasing the transformation to clear skin.

- Evade sun exposure and artificial tanning methods for a minimum of 24 hours, ideally a week before and after your session.
- Pause chemical peels, invasive procedures, and laser treatments for two weeks around your microneedling appointment.
- Stop using products like Retin-A, Renova, and Tazorac one week before and after your session.
- Ensure your skin is clean and devoid of lotions, makeup, and sunscreen on treatment day.
- Communicate any tattooing near the treatment area, as these must be avoided.
- Update us on any health or medical history changes.
- Avoid waxing and chemical depilatories two weeks before and after your session.
- Hold off on anti-inflammatory or blood-thinning medications as advised, barring medical directives.
- Reschedule if you're unwell or exhibit any infection signs in the treatment area.
- Limit vigorous exercise and alcohol consumption 24 hours prior to reduce bruising risks.

- Sun protection is crucial; avoid sun exposure initially as sunscreen application is postponed until 24 hours after treatment. Minimise sun exposure for the following 72 hours to prevent pigmentation issues.
- Post-treatment, your skin will be sensitive. Steer clear of active ingredients for five days to avoid irritation.
- Delay makeup application and activities inducing sweat for 24 hours to allow for healing and reduce infection risks.
- Postpone any other skin treatments, injections, or cosmetic procedures two weeks around your microneedling session for optimal outcomes and reduced complications.

Arrive makeup-free. Avoid strenuous activities, alcohol, and smoking on treatment day. Ensure you're well-fed and hydrated to prevent any discomfort during your session.
This may not suit everyone. Exclusions apply to pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those with open wounds, allergies to stainless steel, bleeding disorders, or those on isotretinoin medication.
- Day 1: Anticipate mild redness and swelling.
