Thats crazy... ive really been considering getting the procedure myself and i know of Dr stephens as well. From what i understand she said that microneedling was fine for darker skin tones as well so its unfortunate you had that bad reaction.

@@Chemeckia Do you think there's anything you could have possibly done to help prevent it like possibly a less aggressive serum?

@@Chemeckia Also what are your thoughts on RF microneedling and would u consider that? I've heard the results are better than regular microneedling

Definitely would use a different serum if I did it again. Some places also recommend that you apply hydroquinone for two weeks before the treatment so that might be something to consider. I’ve also heard that RF micro needling is more powerful but I haven’t done much research on the topic. I think Dr. Rajani has videos on RF micro needling though, might be worth checking out.
