Microneedling in Summer: Why Is It Essential and How to Do It Right?
As temperatures rise and the sun shines brighter, many wonder if facial needling therapy at home is a good idea during the summer months. The answer is yes, microneedling (also known as needling therapy) can be done in summer, but with a few crucial precautions to protect your skin.
Why Is Microneedling Important in Summer?
Summer brings more sun exposure, higher humidity, and environmental stressors that can damage and dry out your skin. Sun's UV rays not only dehydrate your skin but also accelerate aging and worsen existing concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles. Microneedling helps by:
- Stimulating collagen production, essential for firmer and younger-looking skin.
- Enhancing skin's natural biorevitalization and rejuvenation.
- Minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and improving overall texture.
Home vs. Salon Microneedling
A significant risk of microneedling therapy in summer is that after a salon treatment, you might head home during daylight, immediately exposing your freshly treated skin to sun damage. The HoMEso Therapy Kit allows you to perform the treatment safely at home in the evening, right before bed. This way, your skin gets the entire night to regenerate without interference from external factors like sunlight and pollution.
Can I Do Microneedling in Summer?
Absolutely! But remember these key precautions:
- Avoid direct sun exposure for 3–5 days after treatment.
- Always wear SPF 50 sunscreen daily, even on cloudy days.
- Use a wide-brimmed hat and stay in the shade as much as possible.
- Hydrate your skin deeply with recommended products to support healing.
The Importance of SPF 50
Sun protection is non-negotiable after microneedling. SPF 50 not only prevents sunburn but also shields your skin from further UV-induced damage, which can hinder the healing process and reduce the benefits of anti-age and rejuvenation treatments.
