Post-Treatment Do’s and Don’ts: Caring for Your Skin After Injectables or Microneedling
Getting injectables or microneedling treatments can help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin—but the results depend not just on the procedure itself, but on how you care for your skin afterward. At
Glomi Wellness Lab, we guide our clients through proper post-treatment routines to ensure optimal results and minimize complications.
DO:
Keep Your Skin Clean and Hydrated
After microneedling or injectables, your skin may be sensitive or slightly red. Cleanse gently with a mild, non-irritating cleanser and avoid harsh scrubs. Hydrate your skin with a soothing moisturizer or a recommended post-procedure serum. This helps support healing and reduces dryness or irritation.
Protect Your Skin from the Sun
Sun exposure can compromise your results and increase the risk of hyperpigmentation. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, wear a hat, and limit direct sun exposure, especially in the first few weeks after microneedling or first few days after injectable treatment.
Follow Our Specific Instructions
Each treatment is unique, and your skin may respond differently.
Glomi Wellness Lab provides personalized aftercare instructions tailored to your procedure, including recommended products, follow-up schedules, and any restrictions specific to your treatment plan. Following these instructions ensures you achieve the best results safely.
DON'T:
Apply Makeup Immediately
Avoid applying makeup for at least 24 hours after microneedling or injectable treatments. Your skin needs time to recover and introducing makeup too soon can increase the risk of infection or irritation. If you need to leave the house, keep it minimal and choose clean, gentle products.
Touch, Rub, or Pick at the Treated Area
It’s normal to feel some mild swelling, redness, or tenderness. Avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging the treatment area unless instructed by your provider. Doing so can affect product placement in injectables or disrupt healing after microneedling.
Skip Hydration and Healthy Habits
Your body heals from the inside out. Drink plenty of water, get sufficient sleep, and maintain a healthy diet. Avoid excessive alcohol, smoking, or strenuous exercise immediately after treatment, as these can interfere with the healing process.
Maximize Your Results
Proper aftercare is crucial for lasting, beautiful results from injectables and microneedling. By following these do’s and don’ts, you can minimize downtime, prevent complications, and enjoy smoother, rejuvenated skin sooner.
