PRP microneedling is great for getting that ultimate glow and preparing properly for PRP microneedling can make the treatment period much smoother.
The aim beforehand is simple: keep the skin barrier calm and avoid unnecessary irritation. This usually means temporarily stopping potentially irritating products such as retinoids, exfoliating acids and benzoyl peroxide, as well as avoiding tanning and other exfoliating treatments.
Following treatment, we also recommend giving the skin time to recover before returning to intense exercise, swimming and your usual active skincare routine. NHS microneedling guidance similarly advises avoiding sweaty exercise for 72 hours following treatment.
Your exact pre-treatment and aftercare advice should always be tailored to your skin and any medication you take.
If you are considering PRP microneedling, consultations are available at Zorah Clinic in Amersham.
