FAQs
The answer is no, but there might be some discomfort.
No, they can not.
The answer is no. We avoid using numbing cream during micro-needling for key reasons: 1. To minimize toxins in the body. 2. Numbing cream can contract skin blood vessels, which also prevents the essential redness feedback. This feedback system enables our therapists to adapt and offer the most optimal treatment. In the absence of it, microneedling may be far more intense than necessary, increasing the danger and duration of growth and healing for recovery. 3. Vasoconstriction is a factor found in numbing creams. Vasoconstrictor is the name of a drug, agent, or nerve that causes vasoconstriction, which is the narrowing of the walls of blood vessels.
