Welcome to Restoration Wellness + Medspa
Safe, Easy, and Effective Skin Rejuvenation
Microneedling, also referred to as collagen induction therapy, is a long-standing medical aesthetic treatment. The process involves pricking the skin with tiny, sterile needles, creating micro wounds. These wounds signal to the body to induce its natural healing process, which stimulates collagen growth in the skin.
Whether you’re suffering with skin issues such as acne, rosacea, or enlarged pores, or you’re simply ready to refresh and revitalize your appearance, Rejuvapen Microneedling at Restoration Wellness + Medspa is a fantastic option! Microneedling has long been hailed as an effective way to rejuvenate the skin, and the Rejuvapen makes that process even simpler.

Pre-Treatment
Pre-Care Instructions
Prior to Rejuvapen Microneedling in Lebanon, Restoration Wellness Recommends:
Medication & Topical Agents
Avoid the use of retinoids, topical antibiotics, exfoliants, AHAs (e.g. glycolic acid) and BHAs (e.g. salicylic acid), and other topical agents that increase skin sensitivity for at least a week before your treatment. Also, do not take anti-inflammatory and blood thinning medications such as ibuprofen, aspirin, ginkgo, vitamin E, fish oil, etc. for at least 3 days to avoid interference with the natural inflammatory process.
IPL/Lasers/Sun Exposure
Do not have any IPL/Laser procedures for two weeks prior. Pause all tanning methods for at least two weeks and avoid sun exposure for 24 hours prior to the appointment.
Shaving/Waxing
Do not wax, epilate, use electrolysis, or any other hair removal methods on the treatment area for at least a week prior. Additionally, avoid shaving the treatment area on the day of the procedure to avoid irritation. If you have dense hair, closely shave the area the day before your appointment.
Hydration
Ensure you are properly hydrated as this helps the healing process.
Accutane
Tell your specialist if you have been on Accutane in the last six months or if you are prone to cold sores.
Bare Skin
Please arrive with a bare treatment area, clean of any lotion, oil, makeup, powder, perfume, or sunscreen.
Post Treatment
Post-Care Instructions
Following Rejuvapen Microneedling in Lebanon, Restoration Wellness Recommends:
Washing
Wait at least 4 hours, then gently wash with a gentle cleanser and cool water, using only clean hands.
Icing/Medication
Do NOT ice the face or use any arnica or bromelain to avoid interfering with the natural inflammatory process. You should also avoid using anti-inflammatory medications (ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, etc.) for at least a week. You may use Tylenol for any soreness.
Other Things to Avoid
Avoid topical skincare and Retin-A products for 5 days or until the skin is no longer irritated. You should also refrain from strenuous exercise that causes sweating, as well as saunas, jacuzzis, and steam baths for at least 48 hours.
Sleeping
Sleep on your back with your head elevated to minimize swelling or pain as needed for 2 to 3 days.
Picking/Scratching/Scrubbing
Do NOT pick, scratch, or scrub any peeling or flaking skin. Allow this to occur naturally and keep skin moisturized at all times with a hyaluronic acid serum.
Follow-Up Appointments
Schedule follow-up and repeat treatments after 4 to 6 weeks to continue to see results!
Frequently Asked Questions
- When will I see results?
-
Because the technique behind microneedling utilizes your body’s natural ability to produce collagen, results vary from person to person. However, most clients begin to see improvement about three to six months after their last treatment.
As with similar treatments, results are greatly influenced by your lifestyle, sun exposure, diet, and the use of effective skincare products. That said, your aesthetician will personalize an at-home skincare regimen for you to help maintain your results long-term.
- How many Microneedling treatments do I need?
-
For optimal results, we may recommend a series of three or more treatments, each scheduled four to six weeks apart.
During your initial consultation for Microneedling in Lebanon, we will make a personalized recommendation for the number of treatments you need. It may depend on your overall skincare goals, lifestyle, and budget. For example, if you want to treat deep acne scars or stretch marks, you may need more than three Microneedling treatments to see optimal results.
- Does Microneedling hurt?
-
At Restoration Wellness + Mesdpa, we dedicate ourselves to not only helping you reach your skincare goals but making you feel comfortable throughout the process. The feeling patients experience during Microneedling is best described as a mild scratching sensation. You may also feel some heat and an occasional warm needle prick.
Before we begin, your aesthetician will apply a topical anesthetic to ensure your procedure is tolerable. If you have any concerns about the level of pain you may experience during RF microneedling, be sure to voice them! We’ll be there for you every step of the way and will walk you through everything you need to know. We want you to not only feel prepared for your microneedling treatment; we want you to be excited about taking the steps you need to achieve your goals!
- Is there any reason why someone shouldn't have an Microneedling treatment?
-
If you have active acne, you should consider alternative treatments; the Microneedling technique can actually spread acne-causing bacteria over the skin, causing new breakouts. Additionally, you may not be a candidate for Microneeding at this time if: you have used Accutane within the last three months; have open wounds, cuts, or abrasions; have had radiation on your skin in the last year; have a skin infection or herpes simplex in the treatment area; have trouble healing; or are pregnant or breastfeeding.
