STRETCH MARK TREATMENT PRE AND AFTERCARE

Pre-Treatment Care

To ensure your skin is in the best condition before your microneedling and mesotherapy session, please follow these guidelines:

1. One Week Before Treatment

• Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners to prevent skin irritation or sensitivity.

• Discontinue use of Retinol, AHA/BHA acids, Vitamin C serums, or other exfoliating products.

• Do not undergo any other skin treatments (laser, waxing, chemical peels) in the same area.

• Stay hydrated — drink plenty of water to keep your skin nourished.

• If you are prone to cold sores, please inform your practitioner (you may need antiviral medication).

2. On the Day of Treatment

• Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.

• Avoid applying body lotions, creams, or oils on the treatment area.

• Eat a light meal beforehand and avoid caffeine or alcohol.

• Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area

Microneedling and mesotherapy initiate a deep healing response in your skin. Following these steps ensures the best recovery and long-lasting results.

Immediately After Treatment (First 24–48 Hours)

• Expect mild redness, sensitivity, and slight swelling — similar to mild sunburn.

• Avoid touching the area unnecessarily to prevent infection.

• Do not apply makeup, self-tanner, or fragranced products for 24–48 hours.

• Avoid heavy exercise, saunas, or swimming during this period.

• Keep the skin clean and use only the aftercare serum or soothing product recommended by your practitioner.

Next 3–5 Days

• Your skin may feel slightly dry or tight as it heals — apply a gentle moisturizer or hyaluronic acid serum.

• Avoid direct sunlight and always use SPF 30+ daily.

• Do not exfoliate or pick at flaking skin. Allow it to shed naturally.

• Continue drinking water and eating a balanced diet to support skin regeneration.

After 5 Days and Beyond

• You can resume your regular skincare routine (including retinol and acids) once any redness or sensitivity has completely resolved.

• Maintain results by using hydrating and collagen-boosting skincare products.

• Avoid sun damage — consistent SPF use is essential.

• Follow your recommended treatment plan (usually 3–6 sessions) for optimal improvement.
