EkBe Beauty
Your skin will appear red and flushed, similar to a moderate sunburn.
• The treated area may feel tight, warm, or slightly tender.
• Minor pinpoint bleeding or lymph may be visible – this is normal and expected.
• Mild swelling may occur, especially around delicate areas such as under the eyes or on the neck.
DAYS 1–2:
• Redness will be most intense during this period and will gradually subside.
• Swelling may increase slightly on Day 1 and should begin to decrease by Day 2.
• Your skin may feel dry, tight, or sensitive.
• You may notice slight flaking or texture changes as the skin begins to heal.
• Moisturize your skin with vitamin ointment regularly when you feel discomfort.
DAYS 3–5:
• Redness will fade to a pink or rosy tone.
• Peeling or flaking may occur as your skin regenerates – this is a normal part of the healing process.
• The treated area may feel slightly rough or textured.
• Do not pick or peel any flaking skin.
DAYS 6–14:
• Most visible redness and flaking will subside.
• Your skin will continue to regenerate and produce new collagen beneath the surface.
• The treated area should return to near-normal appearance by the end of Week 2.
WEEKS 2–12:
• Collagen production and skin remodeling continue during this phase – this is when you’ll see the real benefits.
• Scars and stretch marks will gradually soften, flatten, and improve in texture and color.
• Multiple sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart may sometimes be needed for optimal results.
• Full results from a series of treatments become visible 3–6 months after your final session.
• Keep your skin clean but do not wash the treated area for at least 6–12 hours post-procedure (or as directed by your technician).
• After the waiting period, gently cleanse with lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free cleanser. Pat dry with a clean towel.
• Apply the recommended post-treatment serum or healing gel as directed (such as hyaluronic acid or growth factor serum).
• Do not apply makeup for at least 24 hours.
• Avoid touching your face or treated area with unwashed hands.
• Sleep on a clean pillowcase.
DAYS 2–7:
• Cleanse your skin gently twice daily with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser and lukewarm water. Pat dry – do not rub.
• Apply a soothing, hydrating serum and gentle moisturizer 2–3 times daily to keep skin hydrated.
• Continue to avoid touching or picking at your skin.
DAYS 7–14:
• You may gradually reintroduce active ingredients like vitamin C after 7 days if your skin has healed well.
• Wait at least 14 days before using retinoids or exfoliating acids.
• Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 7 days. Wear a hat or protective clothing if going outside.
• Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ (preferably SPF 50+) daily after the first 24 hours. Sun protection is critical to prevent hyperpigmentation.
• Do not use tanning beds or apply selftanners for at least 2 weeks.
• Avoid swimming pools, hot tubs, saunas, and steam rooms for 3 days.
• Refrain from strenuous exercise and activities that cause excessive sweating for 24 hours.
• Do not use harsh cleansers, scrubs, exfoliants, or abrasive treatments for at least 1 week.
• Avoid retinoids, AHA/BHA acids, and vitamin C for 5–7 days post-treatment.
• Do not wax, thread, shave, or use depilatory creams on the treated area for at least 5 days.
• Avoid facials, chemical peels, or other invasive skin treatments for at least 2 weeks.
• Hyaluronic acid serum for deep hydration
• Gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer
• Growth factor or peptide serums to enhance healing and collagen production
• Broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen (mineral-based preferred)
• Microneedling for scars and stretch marks requires multiple sessions for best results.
• Most clients need 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, though deep scars may require more treatments.
• Each session stimulates collagen production, gradually improving skin texture, tone, and the appearance of scars.
• Results are cumulative – improvement continues for months after your final treatment as collagen remodeling occurs.
• Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months can help sustain results.
• Microneedling is safe for all skin types and can be combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma)
or serums for enhanced results.
