really...i thought a "regular esthetician" was different from "clinical/medical aesthetician" b/c the latter could work in a doctor's office such as dermatologist or plastic surgeon...but it would be great to know more...additionally what are your (both the doctors) and the aesthetician's thoughts on the new advanced (at home) devices that are coming out...would there still be a need for an esthetician/aesthetician or could we just do most of the "work" at home and only need the dermatologist for more severe cases/procedures...thanks

I suffer from acne. When I microneedle I avoid active spots (with pus) but...I do treat red, painful pimples, works wonders. However, I do it very carefully and as the very last step.
I’ll never forget my first time getting micro needling, I wasn’t numbed. I cried the entire time and the esthetician said beauty is pain so I thought it was the norm. I’ve since had it elsewhere and it was done properly/numbed

@@animalsareourangels93 Microneedling is typically done at a depth that rarely (if ever) goes beyond the dermis so there's no chance microneedling would remodel your facial fat profile. Best way to sustainably reduce facial fat would be to clean up your diet and start doing zone 2 training (AKA "cardio") frequently and at a high enough volume (sessions lasting at least 30min with at least one "long" session per week). Search on any decent running/cycling channel to learn more. Your facial fat and the deeper aspect of your skin health will significantly improve as you get fitter. Good luck !

@@maloxi1472 thank you very much for your very thorough explanation of micro needling. I already jog anywhere from 3 to 5 miles every day. I haven’t ran in a few months because I caught Covid a few months ago and unfortunately I have long Covid. I don’t feel well. I’ve worked out all my life with aerobics running weights etc. I am a vegan I only eat organic foods no meat of course.. I have always taken such good care of my skin and I’m very petite actually. That’s why I was concerned about the facial fat to be honest. I don’t want to lose the fat in my face that I have now especially in my cheeks. I can’t wait to feel better again but I’ve made my mind up to start with weights again this week and start out slowly. My heart races even when I take five steps. I’m dizzy, I’m tired all the time…It’s terrible. In any case, thank you once again! I’ve taken a screenshot of it so I’ll have it for reference. Take care and thank you once again, Susan

Aesthetician here, Elma. U must make sure u remove it with alcohol after
I Love how all three called themselves and each other out. Nobody's perfect, but we can at least try to do our best. They showed that. :0) They're all definitely doing a lot more right than wrong when it comes to their skin. Looking good, y'all.
Lo, you have the BEST bedside manner with your noncompliant patients! Nicely done!!
I’m so impressed that you had your aesthetician on this video.. I’m a cosmetologist with advanced aesthetics training, and this really was enjoyable. I’ve had microneedling & radio frequency microneedling. I think you said this was just regular medical depth >.3mm microneedling. If so what was the needle depth for each of your individual skin types and concerns? Thanks for a great video.
so a dermatologist got a skin procedure done then went out under the sun without sunscreen. doctors really are the worst patients. 😂
I feel like they had missed so much information that can be crucial for someone who undergoes microneedling. You have to make sure you don’t use ANY active ingredient skincare products before and after the procedure and this is including VITAMIN C too, which they didn’t mention at all..Also avoid touching your face after the procedure to avoid getting bacteria on your face which could lead to some problems. First day/night just leave on whatever the esthetician had put on your face after your procedure. The next day you can wash your face but only with lukewarm water, no cleansers to avoid possible reaction! Avoid sun exposure fully! And if you really have to go out put on sunscreen. After 48 hours you can get back to your normal routine but I would say avoid exfoliants and active ingredients for up to 5 days after microneedling. I followed these exact steps after having microneedling done professionally . I didn’t go out until the second day after the procedure, and everything went well and perfect. My skin was glowing and had no bad reaction whatsoever 😊 I hope this helps
This was a really good video, Thanks for that, you all gave a great positive vibe while educating us! Much love ❤️💄
These are so helpful. I've done microneedling twice and followed these tips.
Thank you for including and collaborating with estheticians i feel like some derms really throw us to the wind. I personally love avene cicalfate for post care. I recommend it post peel too.

Bringing your own sunscreen is a good tip as I've felt let down at clinics in the past. I'm in control when doing my own treatments as I can either avoid the sunlight by not walking around exposed or use sunscreen after my own procedure. Suppose you have somewhere to go afterwards (an appointment) and end up walking around for an hour, then returning home worried after a powerful laser treatment.
Awesome video! Thanks for the tips!
Def depends on the aesthetician. My first six treatments were with someone who stressed that it must be painful to be effective. Yes, she used topical numbing cream, but then she followed up with pressing hard into the skin. It was awful pain and then my face was bloody, swollen and red to the extreme - for at least 3 days after. I had to take off work after each tx, even though she gave me a pancake makeup to try to hide the damage. Then, she was transferred to another office and I received microneedling from someone who wasn't sadistic. Walk in the park. Could even describe it as 'felt kind of good'. This was in a large city, large multi-location practice. Had never had MN before so had no idea her technique was cruel. I had great results and that made me believe she was using the correct technique. Now, I've educated myself.

Have had genuine derma roller treatment a couple of times. The downtime was a solid week for me. Face looked red raw and swollen which then started to gradually peel and shed. A good moisturizer is key. I was told not to use any actives like glycolic etc for a month while skin healed. Also advised not to use anything other than water to clean the skin initially, and to avoid makeup. The treatment did leave skin feeling tight and refreshed and glowy. I remember being concerned that pores would look larger afterwards, but it wasn't the case. After the numbing cream, treatment was fairly painless. Weirdly though, after treatment I noticed my eyes would randomly start to water, out of the blue, and I discovered it's cos there are nerves in the forehead that can affect the opthalmic region, so forehead should not be over rolled/microneedled.

Hi Doc, please post a video on the gold ingredient for dark circles and undereye bags.
Enjoyed this video! TFS!🥰
Dear Dr Maxfield and Dr Shah, Many thanks for this (and other) informative video(s)! I've had microneedling done by various professionals and the use of numbing cream seems to be very polarising amongst them. One beauty therapist even told me that using it defies the purpose of microneedling as it draws the blood away from the skin so the skin doesn't have the same healing and regenration potential? I am fine without using the numbing cream as I am quite pain-resistant and the procedure is much, much shorter but could you please share your opinion on this approach? Does doing microneedling "raw" really bring about better results and shortened recovery? I've also observed different approaches to how the actual procedure is done including how many times the microneedling pen is drawn over the same area of skin. Once I had it done multiple times and my face was red and pulsating for three days post- procedure and I was shedding like a snake for the following four days. My favourite therapist only drags the pen once over any given area (twice at most for "areas of concern"), as the purpose of microneedling is to thicken and "densen" the skin, not to remove the top layer of the skin. It's probably worth mentioning she uses the original Dermapen 4.0, wheareas other specialists I've seen use different tools (Nanofrax, SkinPen etc.), and I realise there might be different schools of thought even when it comes to microneedling! Would you be able to share your experitse on what you think the best technique is? I feel like microneedling is one of the most popular procedures and even though I've had it done multiple times over the past couple of years, I still don't quite understand what best-in-class should look like. P.S. This is my first comment on your channel (and on KZread!) - many thanks for sharing your evidence-based experitse, energy and educating us in the most approachable and fun way on all things skin and skincare! ❤

great questions. I would say even needling over the area multiple times wouldn't be removing any skin, it would just be creating more punctures. You can also create more punctures by having more needles in the pen. I think there's no one size fits all approach as some people might just have very sensitive skin. I think typically you can go over the skin at least 2 times, but to watch for excessive bleeding, choose the right needles and depth for the area you're in, choose a pattern for application vs randomly drawing etc etc. There are a lot of factors that go into the process to consider in addition to redoing the same area (not suggesting you don't know but these factors could also be why you've had less favorable experiences. Some people might even quite like the "snake shedding" effect you described as that's similar to after effects of a chemical peel). I also don't use a numbing cream either at home or at my aesthetician's. She's very cautious about what your skin absorbs and while numbing cream isn't the worst thing in the world, you wouldn't want to accidentally push that in deeper into your face if you forgot to wipe some off, and the process really isn't that unpleasant without it.
Another super-video, thanks! 😋🤙 I use a hypochloric antiseptic spray immediately after a microneedling… is that ok? And how much time would you recommend between this desinfection and the use of a serum on the skin? 🤔
Be weary of doctors! I am a medical aesthetician and I just did a microneedle course. Tbh I was flabbergasted how unsanitary the doctor was. He touched everything under the sun and then the patients face. He also put product on the patient’s face and then put the applicator directly back into the cream multiple times. I had to tell a nurse to throw out the cream. Unsure why as a “doctor” he was so unsanitary and the most important thing in micro needling is cleanliness…. Be aware friends! The only other people in the course who noticed these things were the nurses and the other med estheticians. The acupuncturists were clueless why I was so shocked. So might tell you who you should and shouldn’t see for micro needling
i love the vibe here
I love the video on what micro needling actually is
Very professional video.
I got 4 sessions of microneedling and even with the numbing cream, it hurt like hell. Got through it though! And the results are great!
Way too much fun with you 3!
A couple of months ago I went to a Transport and Barriers conference in Germany, and there was a group that tested birch sap in vitro for skin regeneration (cell culture basically). Maybe those creams could be used as well? The results were quite convincing! ❤ I need to come back with the name of the group

Interesting. My dermatologist specifically said NO mineral sunscreens because the tiny mineral particles can get into the wound and cause an infection.
