off the top of my head i cannot remember i do believe i mention it in the video.....if your starting out do not go too deep its a gradual process... (.25, or .5 is a good way to start) Needle count depends on what your skin concern is. I hope this helps

your welcome hun

You can do the .25 shallow depths for nanon work really well

yes you would throw out then the needle cartridge they are one time use. You can clean your face with a very gentle mild cleanser. Numbing cream is optional 15-20 minutes before you actually start microneedling. You will need to remove the numbing cream before you go in with the device. I hope this helps.

If you are really pale it might come through with a yellow tone but for most darker tones yes

@@Heidisspalife Okay . Thank you for your prompt response

No you cannot use the same microneedling tips. They are one time use.

omg, I miss you hun. We must catch up soon. 🙏🏽

The needles itself is going in and out at such a rapid speed and very shallow depths that it does not end up tearing the skin. Where you can get into trouble is if you have your pen set to a low speed and are move the pen too fast that might cause an issue. However when it comes to depths we are dealing with 1.2 (.5) mm on the very surface of the skin.

Me personally I like Dr. Pen. It is very affordable and good quality. I have had mine for years.

I am not a bleeder to begin with even when I got my nose pierced years ago it didn't really bleed. Some people are probably just more vascular and will bleed easier. Also I am not new to micro needling so my skin was very much used to it. I have deeper scars on my cheeks so the 2.0 doesn't really bother me much. Everyone skin is different in the end. I hope this helps.

Mine did diminish but it is not perfect skin I would say. It is definitely not a cure all.

Girlll I still get pain and it didn’t help with the bleeding either 😭the fibroids are already back i expected. I can do a follow up video if you want me to

So glad!

there are other antiseptics that do not have a sting factor. A local pharmacy will have a bunch of antiseptics.

I have used it before. I usually use the 12 needle count because that is where my problem area is.

@@Heidisspalife thanks

Microneedling helps with acne but it can only do so much depending on what kind they are. A dermatologist will be your best best for more severe acne scars. I hope this helps.

Thank you so much! I'm still planning to do the microneedling, did you notice improvement with your scars doing it before? @@Heidisspalife

I did but have improvement but not absolute perfect skin.

Also that is a great idea I will see if I can create a link on my canva if it some of my ideas help you guys I don't mind sharing :)

@@Heidisspalife thank you so much! Thats gonna help me so much, I’m growing my business and my goal is to be full time by July 1. Opening a new biz can be scary and confusing so when people share about their experiences it’s awesome. I’ve been watching Lot of videos like yours and they have been helping me and super encouraging. Thank you

Thank you so much 😊

Thanks for the tip

That’s a really shallow depth but rule of thumb is to allow some healing time I Would say 4 weeks minimum with any depth …..nano you can do more because it’s not really needles

BSK8 Scarpro by Bioskin 🙋🏽‍♀️

With nano you can or even a .25 setting

@@Heidisspalife oh perfect thanks

You're so welcome!

I suppose 😂

I have been very busy and yes I plan on filming something this week cross my fingers :) Thank you for liking my videos

I purchased my potted gels from Zillabeau :)

Going a deeper depth is out of an Estheticians scope. I know too deep like subcutaneous levels can damage the skin. It also depends on the acne scars severity wise.

@@Heidisspalife Thank you 😊

Probably not my skin is as good as it gets now lol

I turn pink which is hard to see on camera and I’ve been doing this for many years and just don’t have bleeding I also am not going medical depths it is out of scope. Believe what you like I’m just sharing my experience because everyone is guess what different.

If you’re a bleeder dont start with that depth. Start with less like .5 ….i hope this helps

You can use 12 - 16 pins. Hope this helps.

ooo no def be mindful with raised scars those tend to be keloids.

@@Heidisspalife I have a small hypertrophic scar on my face which I want eliminate, will this work on it?

I haven't heard of it to be honest I would have to do some research on it.

You're so welcome!

Yes I agree

I typically would go for a tattooist numbing cream, and I have seen someone use a brand called Curist lidocaine cream. Those are what’s available over the counter. Just make sure you take it off before the procedure and don’t leave it on too long either. Hope this helps.

@@Heidisspalife ok great thank you so much!

lash classes that teach multiple can be over whelming. When I taught it in Florida I focused on just classics so that students can master that first. Some states require either an esthetician or cosmetology license to practice however I rarely see licensed pros especially if they practice on their own. Sometimes schools don't even teach you lashes you have to still go and pay for a class outside of school. Thank you for your kind words I am trying out here the struggle is real when you start all over again. I do plan on posting more often I took a nice break for a couple of months. This year I feel renewed. :)

@@Heidisspalife I'm glad that you feel renewed. Sometimes we as people need a break to sorta recalibrate and recharge. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you in the future.

you should be off tretinoin for at least 2 weeks before attempting something like this

@@Heidisspalife even just for my eyebrows? Lol

if you haven't been putting any tretinoin on the brows it should be fine. Keep in mind that tretinoin has a tendency to make the skin sensitive and more delicate.

thank you for tuning it :)

Some booking apps you can just upload it straight to it and it'll send it to the client. I used to email it directly to the client, but no one ever filled it out. So I just wait for them to do it right before their treatment.

Any kind of blood thinners like aspirin, omegas, or medication. No accurate or retinol prior too either.
