Recovery time after micro-needling typically ranges from a few days to a week, depending on individual skin sensitivity and the depth of the treatment. Here’s a general timeline:
Immediately After: You may experience redness and swelling similar to a mild sunburn, which usually subsides within a few hours to a day.
First Few Days: Skin might feel tight and dry. Redness can persist for 2 to 4 days.
Peeling: Light peeling or flaking may occur around days 3 to 5 as the skin heals.
Most people can return to normal activities within 24 hours, but it's important to avoid makeup, direct sun exposure, and intense exercise for a few days post-micro-needling treatment. Always follow your provider's micro-needling aftercare instructions for the best results.
