Day 1 vs. Day 7 — and everything in between. 💉👇
Microneedling isn’t a “glow up in an hour” treatment. It’s a controlled process that triggers your own collagen, and the in-between days are part of the work. Here’s what to expect:
Days 1–2: Think moderate sunburn. Bright pink or red, minor swelling, skin feels warm and tight.
Days 3–5: Redness and swelling start backing off. Dryness sets in, plus light peeling or flaking as old surface cells shed. Resist the urge to pick.
Days 6–7: Peeling stops, redness clears, and that fresh, smooth glow shows up.
What to skip while you heal:
❌ Retinoids, vitamin C, and exfoliating acids (glycolic, salicylic) — give it a full week
❌ Direct sun. Broad-spectrum mineral SPF, every day, no exceptions
❌ Sweat and heat — no hard workouts, saunas, or hot showers for the first 48–72 hours
Healing timelines vary by skin and by protocol. Follow your provider’s aftercare over anything you read online.
