5 Things to Know Before Getting a Micro Needling Facial in Singapore

The micro needling facial is one of the most popular forms of facial treatment nowadays. Most of us recognise it as the type of facial treatment wherein a roller with very tiny needles is rolled over the face, which sometimes causes bleeding. We’ve seen it in ads like that, but what exactly is a micro needling facial in Singapore, and why is it the best facial today? Today, we will give you five things you should know about the micro needling facial. This information will help you decide whether you should get one soon.
  • MICRO NEEDLING FACIAL IS GOOD FOR ALL SKIN TYPES
Micro needling facial is an anti-ageing facial treatment. That being said, this facial is suitable for various skin types, almost all of them even. The key aspect of micro needling facial is that it creates microscopic punctures on the skin to trigger collagen production. Collagen is our natural healing enzyme. It renews the cells along the damaged region of our skin when we are wounded. Moreover, it firms our skin to avoid sagging. Thus, by promoting collagen production, this facial treatment unleashes our natural way of skin repairing, making it the best facial in Singapore.
  • MICRO NEEDLING FACIAL CAN BE DISCOMFORTING BUT NOT TOO PAINFUL
The bleeding skin in the ads might discourage you to try a micro needling facial but in reality, the process is not that painful. Some patients report slight discomfort but nothing general anaesthesia cannot fix.
  • MICRO NEEDLING FACIAL IS A WHOLE-PACKAGE FACIAL TREATMENT
The micro needling facial does not start and end with rolling the apparatus on your skin. First, your skin will be cleansed thoroughly to avoid infection. Once the cleaning is done, the skin specialist will use the handpiece to create small puncture wounds all over the face. After that, a platelet-rich plasma will be used to pamper your skin and help in wound healing. Lastly, the skin specialist will moisturise your skin.
  • MICRO NEEDLING FACIAL HAS DOWNTIME & REQUIRES AFTERCARE
Every individual who wishes to get a micro needling facial must commit themselves to a 1-2 month downtime. During this recovery period, you will not be able to wear cosmetics, eyeglasses, face masks and other things that will come in contact with the skin around your face. Some activities such as sauna, swimming and workout are also prohibited.
  • PEOPLE WITH LESIONS AND OR SKIN INFECTIONS SHOULD NOT GET MICRO NEEDLING FACIAL
If you are currently nursing a wound, a lesion, a skin infection or an acne breakout, micro needling facial is not recommended. Are you interested in getting this facial treatment soon? Visit Indulgence Beauty today for more information or consultation.
