Pre-Treatment Genius RF Microneedling Instructions

Before your Genius RF Microneedling treatment at Coastal Aesthetics, it’s important to follow specific pre-treatment instructions to ensure the best results and a safe experience. Please review the guidelines below to prepare for your session and reach out to us with any questions prior to your appointment.

  • Patients with a known history of acne breakout or HSV 1 and 2 lesions should begin prophylaxis treatment at least 1 day prior to treatment. Do not treat if severe acne breakout or active HSV lesions are present within the treatment areas. 
  • Stop using any harsh exfoliants (glycolic acid), retinoids, or vitamin C serums in the treatment area for 5-7 days prior to treatment.
  • On day of treatment, patients should thoroughly wash face and not apply any make-up, lotions, sunscreen or any other cosmetics to the skin of the treatment area, outside of the numbing cream provided to you, prior to arriving at Coastal Aesthetics and Wellness.
