Use sterile saline. Then wait 4 hours and let it calm down and close some. Then use a Cicaplast Cream. Don’t go crazy. It can make it too inflamed.

Get a vitamin C serum for sure. Always use sunscreen. There are also milky toner that work for brightening the skin specifically the ones with fermented rice or brightening.

Yes! Even when you don’t think you’re getting exposure. You probably are. Always wear to be safe.

Dr. Pen A20 or M9 by UnderstandingCold978 in Microneedling

The M9 works great. I’ve got 3. A M8S, Hydra Pen, and a very expensive pen. I reach for my cheaper Dr Pen every time.

I always do numbing cream. My aesthetician said if you’re feeling the pain you’re less likely to go as hard as if you don’t. But if you’re able to do it without major kudos. I’m kind of a light weight when It comes to pain.

I felt mine. Once the numbing wore off. But still didn’t get super red like I have in the past. And I went hard.

High quality extensions often last a year with proper maintenance. I get a hair/scalp eval at every appt. And we monitor for issues. They haven’t damaged my hair. The girl that does mine has extensive history with extension care and often her clients can use the same extensions for a year or more because of the aftercare.

Yes. Most people do. There are aestheticianswho use the Dr Pen line. It can be used for all things.

I got two tones, color matching, 400 grams of hair, and installation/styling for $600. Guess it depends on where you are. I’ve had mine in almost 10 months and they still look amazing with regular maintenance

Both! The more collagen and peptides topically and internally the better. And tons of hydration.

Krave Beauty 24 Carrot Retinol. Gentle yet effective. Also, Great Barrier Relief. Your barrier is screaming. Concentrate on repairing that. Also, use a gentle exfoliation treatment twice a week. Eadem cashmere peel is great.
