LED Light Before Microneedling 🔴🔵
LED before SkinPen is like flipping the switch on for your fibroblasts ! It gets them wide awake and ready to work. The light jumpstarts circulation, boosts cellular energy, and gets your skin’s repair system warmed up before we even start needling. When your cells are primed like this, they respond faster, build more collagen, and give you smoother, healthier looking skin.
Why You Should Wait 24 Hours After for LED Light ⏳
LED right after microneedling might feel like a good idea but it can actually water down your results. While it may seem like a good idea to reduce redness and shorten your downtime, those micro injuries are supposed to kick off an inflammatory phase and that’s what tells your skin to start producing fresh collagen and elastin. When you calm down this too early, you interrupt that process. Waiting 24 hours lets your skin go through that important first stage so when you add LED, it works with your results instead of against them.
