**It usually takes about a week to two weeks after microneedling to be able to apply makeup, but the exact timing depends on the individual's recovery. Microneedling is a cosmetic technique that stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen, which makes them firmer, lighten wrinkles, reduce pores, and more. During the operation, the ** tissue will be damaged to a certain extent, and it will take a while to recover.
During the recovery period, makeup should be avoided because the ingredients in the cosmetics may irritate**, causing local redness and swelling to worsen, and may even cause infection, affecting the recovery effect. In addition to avoiding makeup, there are a few things you should pay attention to:
1.Avoid smoking and drinking: Both tobacco and alcohol can irritate ** and affect recovery.
2.Avoid spicy and irritating foods: These foods may cause inflammation to worsen and affect recovery.
3.Strict sun protection: Avoid sun exposure to avoid adverse effects on recovery.
4.Keep it dry and clean: During recovery, keep it dry and clean to avoid infection.
If you experience any unusual symptoms during the recovery period, you should go to the hospital in time. Generally speaking, if the post-operative care is proper and the recovery is smooth, you can wear makeup normally in about a week to two weeks. Please note, however, that the exact time of recovery may vary from person to person. Therefore, it is best to consult a doctor before applying makeup to make sure that you have fully recovered.
