The ask in one line
This page does not print a list of people who should avoid microneedling. The provider decides after reviewing your health history, so give them a complete one.
What to pin down
The requirement is disclosure. Tell the provider before the first session.
- List any skin condition you have now or have had.
- List every medicine and supplement you take.
- List any other health condition and any past reaction to a procedure.
- Ask the provider directly whether microneedling is suitable for you, and why.
Where to read more
Two sources are listed for background. The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery microneedling page is an overview for patients. The systematic review of radiofrequency microneedling for facial rejuvenation is a research paper on a related method. Read both for any mention of who is excluded or cautioned, and bring what you find to the consultation.
Closing directive
Only a provider who has your history can say whether it is suitable. We translate screening documents and examine no one, so this page is not medical advice.
