🌿 CASES & SKIN CONDITIONS THAT SHOULD NOT UNDERGO MICRONEEDLING 🌿 Professional advice from LA'BELLA BEAUTÉ SG Microneedling is highly effective for collagen stimulation, skin rejuvenation, pore refinement and scar treatment. However, it is not suitable for every skin type or condition. Performing the procedure on the wrong candidate or at the wrong time may lead to serious complications. 🚫 1. Active inflammatory or infected skin • Severe inflammatory acne, cystic or pustular acne • Dermatitis, open wounds, bacterial or fungal infection 👉 Risk of spreading infection and worsening inflammation. 🚫 2. History of recurrent Herpes simplex • Microneedling can trigger viral reactivation 👉 May cause widespread lesions, prolonged healing and post-inflammatory scarring. 🚫 3. Keloid or hypertrophic scar tendency 👉 High risk of abnormal scar formation after skin injury. 🚫 4. Compromised skin barrier • Ongoing peeling or excessive dryness • Currently using strong actives (retinoids, high-strength acids) • Persistent erythema, burning or irritation 👉 Increased risk of inflammation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. 🚫 5. Pregnancy and breastfeeding 👉 Hormonal fluctuations make the skin unpredictable and more sensitive to trauma. 🚫 6. Underlying medical conditions affecting healing • Blood-clotting disorders • Use of anticoagulant medication • Active autoimmune skin diseases 👉 Higher risk of bleeding, delayed wound healing and infection. 🚫 7. During the menstrual period • Hormonal changes increase skin sensitivity • Higher pain perception and tendency to bleed • Slower recovery response 👉 Microneedling should be avoided during menstruation for safety and optimal results. ⚠️ 8. Strong post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation tendency 👉 Requires thorough skin assessment and a strict pigmentation-control protocol. 💬 Professional Recommendation from LA'BELLA BEAUTÉ SG Microneedling should only be performed after comprehensive skin assessment and at the appropriate time. A correct indication does not only enhance results — it protects your skin from unnecessary risks.
