MIcroneedling
Benefits of Microneedling:
Microneedling offers numerous benefits for skin rejuvenation, particularly in Hawaii's climate on the Big Island and in Kailua Kona. This treatment stimulates collagen production, improves skin texture, and reduces the appearance of acne scars, wrinkles, and pigmentation. At Sol Medical Wellness and Aesthetics, microneedling enhances skin elasticity and overall tone, providing a natural glow.
Preparation for Microneedling:
Before undergoing microneedling at Sol Medical Wellness and Aesthetics in Kailua Kona, it's important to prepare your skin adequately:
Consultation: Schedule a skin consultation with our aesthetic specialists to assess your skin and determine if microneedling is the best option for you.
Skincare Adjustments: Discontinue use of active ingredients such as retinol, glycolic acid, and other exfoliating agents at least 1-2 weeks before treatment to reduce sensitivity and potential irritation.
Sun Protection: Always use sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily, especially in Kailua Kona's sunny environment, to protect your skin and prevent pigmentation issues.
Hydration: Keep your skin well-hydrated by using a gentle moisturizer leading up to the treatment date.
Post-Care After Microneedling:
After microneedling at Sol Medical Wellness and Aesthetics, follow these post-care instructions to ensure optimal healing and results:
Sun Protection: Apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every morning, reapplying throughout the day as needed.
Gentle Cleansing: Cleanse your face gently with a mild cleanser to remove impurities without irritating the treated skin.
Hydration: Use a hydrating serum or moisturizer to keep your skin moisturized and aid in the recovery process.
Avoid Harsh Products: Avoid using products containing retinol, glycolic acid, or harsh exfoliants for at least 1 week post-treatment to prevent irritation.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure and activities that cause sweating for 48 hours after treatment to reduce the risk of inflammation.
Follow-up Care: Follow any specific instructions provided by our specialists at Sol Medical Wellness and Aesthetics regarding post-microneedling care and when to resume your regular skincare routine.
When to Restart Actives:
You can typically resume using your regular skincare products containing retinol, glycolic acid, and other active ingredients after about 1 week or as advised by our specialists at Sol Medical Wellness and Aesthetics. Start reintroducing these products gradually to assess your skin's tolerance and avoid over-exfoliation.
