When Should I Start Microneedling?
If you are wondering at what age you should start microneedling, the good news is that adults of all ages can benefit from the procedure. If you’re in your late 20s to early 30s, you might consider “prejuvenation” treatments to combat early signs of aging and maintain your youthful skin. Microneedling can also benefit older individuals looking to improve their skin texture and tone and reduce signs of aging.
Who Should Not Do Microneedling?
Microneedling is generally safe for most skin types, but it may not be suitable for those with active lesions or compromised skin quality, including conditions like acne, rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis. Additionally, individuals with a history of keloid scarring should avoid microneedling.
