Post-Procedure Note

Microneedling?

This serum is designed for daily topical use on stable, non-disrupted skin — not for post-microneedling application. If you microneedle, use our Recovery Serum during the 48–72 hour recovery window, then transition back to the Daily Gentle Serum once your skin has calmed.

The Recovery Serum has a minimal formula (GHK-Cu 0.1% + Centella + Aloe) specifically built for compromised skin, without the additional actives (Niacinamide, Matrixyl) that may irritate freshly treated skin.
