❗ CLIENTS WITH A HISTORY OF HERPES – MICRONEEDLING IS NOT RECOMMENDED At LA'BELLA BEAUTÉ SG, safety is always our top priority. Microneedling is an effective skin rejuvenation and regeneration treatment; however, it is not suitable for everyone, especially for clients with a history of Herpes simplex virus (HSV) such as cold sores or herpetic skin lesions. 🔬 Why is Herpes a contraindication for Microneedling? The Herpes simplex virus remains dormant in the body for life and can be reactivated when the skin barrier is compromised. During microneedling, thousands of micro-channels are created in the skin, which may: • Trigger reactivation of HSV • Allow the virus to spread rapidly across the treated area • Lead to multiple blister eruptions and severe skin inflammation • Increase the risk of secondary infection, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and atrophic scarring A treatment intended to improve the skin may instead result in serious damage and prolonged recovery. 🚫 Clients who should strictly avoid Microneedling • History of cold sores, facial herpes, or genital herpes • Recurrent blister outbreaks around the lips, nose, or chin during stress, fatigue, or fever • Recent herpes episode with incomplete healing (within the past 4–6 weeks) 🌿 Safe alternative solutions at LA'BELLA BEAUTÉ SG For clients with a history of Herpes, we recommend non-invasive skin restoration treatments, including: • Epidermal recovery and skin-barrier strengthening programs • Gentle brightening and rejuvenation therapies without micro-injury • Personalized treatment plans to support long-term skin health 💎 A message from LA'BELLA BEAUTÉ SG The strongest treatment is not always the best – the right treatment is. We carefully assess every client’s medical and skin history before any procedure to minimize preventable risks. ✨ Healthy skin is the foundation of lasting beauty.
