5 Things to Do After a Virtue RF Microneedling Treatment

5 Things to Do After a Virtue RF Microneedling Treatment

RF Microneedling is an amazing treatment to rejuvenate your skin, boost collagen, elastin and improve lift, texture and tone. While the procedure itself sets the stage for beautiful results, what you do after your appointment is just as important!

Here are five easy and effective tips to ensure your skin heals beautifully and you maximize your results.


1. Keep It Clean and Simple


After your treatment, your skin will be sensitive. Avoid heavy makeup and harsh cleansers for the first 48 hours. Instead, stick to a gentle, hydrating cleanser and pat your skin dry. This allows your skin to heal without irritation.


2. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate


Your skin’s barrier is in repair mode, and hydration is key. Use soothing serums and moisturizers recommended by your provider to keep your skin nourished. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water with electrolytes, or coconut water to hydrate from the inside out!


3. Protect with SPF


Sun protection is non-negotiable! Your skin is more sensitive to UV rays after RF Microneedling, so apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) even if you’re staying indoors. Reapply every two hours if you’re outside.


4. Avoid Heat and Sweat


For at least 3-5 days, steer clear of saunas, hot showers, and intense workouts. Excess heat and sweat can irritate your skin and interfere with the healing process.


5. Follow Your Provider’s Advice


At Skinfluence Face & Body Med Spa in Richmond, every treatment plan is unique, so follow the post-care instructions given by your provider. This might include using specific serums or scheduling follow-up treatments to enhance your results. Trust the process and stay consistent!
