Proper post-care after radiofrequency microneedling is essential to support a smooth recovery and optimise treatment results. With appropriate care, most patients experience minimal side effects and noticeable skin improvement.
Post-Care Tips:
-
Apply cold compresses or ice packs to the treated area for 20 minutes at a time, several times daily, to help reduce swelling and bruising.
-
Cleanse the treated skin gently twice daily using a mild cleanser. Avoid harsh cleansers, exfoliants, or scrubs that may irritate the skin.
-
Keep the skin well-moisturised by applying a gentle, hydrating moisturizer several times throughout the day.
-
Refrain from wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after the treatment to minimise irritation.
-
Avoid direct sun exposure for at least one week post-treatment. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher when outdoors.
