What should I avoid after RF microneedling? So you've just had RF microneedling, and you're excited to see the amazing results it will bring to your skin. But hold on a second - there are a few things you should steer clear of post-treatment to ensure you get the best results possible. Let's talk about what you should avoid after RF microneedling. 

Avoid direct sun exposure: Your skin will be more sensitive after the procedure, so it's crucial to protect it from the sun's harmful rays. Remember to wear sunscreen and a wide-brimmed hat if you need to be outside.

Say no to intense workouts: While exercise is great for your overall health, intense workouts can lead to excessive sweating, which may not be suitable for your skin right after RF microneedling. Opt for light exercises instead.

Avoid harsh skincare products: Your skin will be in the recovery phase, so avoid using products with strong actives, chemicals or exfoliants that could irritate your skin. Stick to gentle, hydrating products recommended by Tulua's provider.


No hot showers or saunas: As tempting as a hot shower or sauna might be, high heat can be detrimental to your skin post-RF microneedling. Stick to lukewarm water to prevent any adverse effects on your skin immediately post procedure. 

 
Avoid picking or scratching your skin: Your skin will be healing, and picking at it can lead to scarring or infections. Be patient and let your skin heal naturally.

By following these post-care instructions and avoiding the mentioned activities, you can help your skin recover effectively after RF microneedling and achieve the radiant, youthful glow you desire.

I am a very low-maintenance person and am usually taking care of my kids’ needs before my own. But! I received a Hydrafacial at Tulua and it was AMAZING! My skin felt buttery soft afterward and had a natural, dewy glow. Since the facial, my skin looks plumper (I think that’s how you describe it 🤪). I will be getting another Hydrafacial in the near future. This is going to be one thing that I’m going to make into a routine for me!
