Recovery from microneedling is generally quick, typically just 24 hours, allowing you to resume work or school right after the procedure. It’s advisable to hold off on makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment, though recovery duration may vary based on treatment intensity.

After the treatment, you might notice some redness and swelling, similar to a light sunburn, but these symptoms usually fade within a few days.

To maximize and maintain the benefits of microneedling:

• Keep your skin well-hydrated.
• Apply high-SPF sunscreen.
• Avoid direct sunlight for several days following the treatment.

Regarding the longevity of microneedling results, most individuals notice visible improvements after just one session. However, the best outcomes are typically seen after several sessions. With appropriate skincare, the results of a full microneedling course can last 6 months or even longer!
