Pre-Treatment & Planning Guide

Pre-Treatment Care for Agnes RF Microneedling

✅ One week before your visit, speak with your physician or Dr. David before stopping any prescription medications, and strictly avoid alcohol.
✅ Pause blood-thinning supplements like fish oil, vitamin E, ginkgo, or high-dose ibuprofen and aspirin to help minimize bruising.
✅ Five days before your appointment, stop using retinoids, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or any harsh chemical exfoliants.
✅ On the day of your session, arrive with completely clean skin — no makeup, no moisturizers, no heavy creams.
✅ Expect three to ten days of clinical and social downtime, with some localized redness, mild swelling, and tiny pin-prick tracking marks.
✅ You can safely camouflage any residual redness with makeup starting on day three.

Before you arrive for your Agnes RF microneedling treatment, we want to make sure your skin is perfectly prepped for the best possible results. Starting one week before your visit, speak with your physician or Dr. David before stopping any prescription medications, and strictly avoid alcohol. Pause blood-thinning supplements like fish oil or high-dose ibuprofen to help minimize bruising. Five days before your appointment, stop using retinoids, salicylic acid, or any chemical exfoliants. On the day of your session, come in with completely clean skin — no makeup, no heavy creams. Plan for about three to ten days of downtime, as you may notice some localized redness and mild swelling while your skin kicks off its deep collagen reset. If you have any other questions or concerns, contact our team at Magnolia Skin Center.
