Micro needling is a great treatment for darker Fitzpatrick’s because it doesn’t involve peels or lasers, which can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Treatments can be performed on the body as well as the face, although prices should be based on an area the size being worked on.
To gain the best results from Micro needling a course of treatments is recommended.
Micro needling treatment schedules can be:
- Every 4 weeks
- A course of 3 – 6 is recommended depending on the clients start point. More extreme conditions will take longer to treat
