Why I don’t recommend at-home microneedling:

1. Infection risk
Microneedling breaches the skin barrier, creating a pathway for bacteria
2. Uncontrolled needle depth
Incorrect depth can cause excessive inflammation and tissue injury or no results at all
3. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Trauma can trigger excess melanin production, especially in certain skin tones
4. Disease exacerbation
Needling over active acne, infection, dermatitis, or herpes lesions can worsen issues



Microneedling is controlled skin injury. Find a licensed provider!! The technique and depth matter.

GLP-1s & muscle loss — the part no one tells you 👇

Studies show ~20–40% of weight loss on GLP-1s can be from lean muscle mass. (Muscle, water, organs)

But here’s the catch:

Those studies did NOT include structured strength training or high protein intake.

And this matters because 👇
ANY weight loss (GLP-1s OR regular dieting) can lead to muscle loss if you’re not intentional

For example:
• GLP-1s: ~20–40% lean mass
• Dieting: ~10–20% on average (can be higher without training)

Here’s what most people miss:

With Resistance training 3-4 x per week and Adequate protein 1-2 g/kg your muscle loss can drop dramatically in some cases to ~3%.

What that means:
Lose 20 lbs and you could lose less than 1 lb of muscle vs several pounds.

At-home microneedling devices (rollers, pens bought online) come with risks:
• Higher infection risk due to improper sterilization or reusing needles
• Uncontrolled needle depth can cause tearing, scarring, or uneven damage
• No FDA review. This means many are not classified or cleared as medical devices 
• User error can equal incorrect pressure, angle, or frequency which increases complications such as hyperpigmentation, especially in darker skin tones 
• Limited results, at home devices typically only treat superficially without the effect of true collagen remodeling



Professional microneedling (SkinPen WITH a trained medical provider)

• FDA-cleared devices (like SkinPen) are reviewed for safety & effectiveness for specific uses 
• Controlled depth & speed to reduce complications and actually stimulate collagen production
• Sterile, single-use cartridges, which reduces infection risk 
• Proper aftercare & complication management

Always, always consult a medical professional for safe and effective microneedling.
