Do you have a professional microneedling treatment coming up? To get the best results, you will want to make sure you are properly prepared for the procedure.
Microneedling is a minimally-invasive treatment that uses tiny needles to puncture the skin, eliciting a regenerative response within the skin. It has been cleared to address conditions such as acne scarring and wrinkles, but also has the potential to improve the appearance of such concerns as pigmentation and rosacea. Whichever skin condition you are using microneedling for, the products you use before, during and after your treatment will play a significant role in your results.
Preparing Your Skin for Microneedling
Going into the procedure, it’s recommended to get your skin as ‘balanced’ as possible. Ideally, your skin is hydrated, properly nourished and your skin’s oil production is stabilized.

Step 1: Cleanse your skin with a nourishing cleanser.
Many cleansers, especially those formulated for acne-prone skin, can leave your skin dry. If not balanced with proper skin care products, that can lead to your skin elevating its oil production and exasperating acne breakouts.
This Pre-Post Microneedling Starter Kit includes the Tri-Phase Cleanser with grapeseed oil to help keep your skin clean without stripping it of its natural oils. It removes dirt, excess oil, makeup and environmental impurities with one wash.
Step 2: Keep your skin hydrated.
The Pre-Post Microneedling Starter Kit also contains a triple-weighted hyaluronic acid serum to provide deep hydration for multiple layers of tissue, not just the superficial. Additionally, it contains the Hyla Active 3D Sculptured Mask to deliver not only hydration, but a soothing cooling effect - perfect after a long day, or when you get home from your treatment!
As always, remember to drink plenty of water for your activity level. Properly hydrated skin helps collagen and elastin production even more, allowing your microneedling results to become visible faster.
Step 3: Nourish your skin.
The Vitamin Rich Repair cream in the kit features an effective delivery system of vitamins and nutrients necessary for optimal skin health. This product not only prepares your skin for the professional microneedling treatment but also helps boost results with post-procedure use.
By following these steps, you can ensure that you are properly prepared for a professional microneedling treatment and receive the best possible results. Investing in a Pre-Post Microneedling Starter Kit is an essential step in preparing for your microneedling treatment.
