If you’ve been putting off microneedling because it’s summer, pause right there, gurl. There’s a lot of confusion out there—and today, we’re breaking it down so you can make the glow-up decision that’s actually backed by science.
At Ma‑Arteh Beauty Studio & Medispa, I specialize in SkinPen microneedling—a clinical treatment that helps smooth texture, fade acne scars, shrink pores, and boost collagen. And yes, you can 100% do it safely in the summer with the right care.
🧬 First, What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a treatment that creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin using ultra-fine needles. This stimulates your skin’s healing process, boosts collagen and elastin, and improves overall tone and texture.
At Ma‑Arteh, I use the SkinPen Precision system—an FDA-cleared microneedling device with:
- Custom needle depth for full control
- Sterile, single-use cartridges
- Minimal downtime and optimized safety for all skin tones
Bonus: It’s safe for summer when you follow proper pre- and post-care (which I’ll give you, of course 😌).
☀️ Is It Safe to Microneedle in Summer?
Yes—with the right aftercare and sun protection, microneedling is absolutely safe during summer.
But here’s what matters:
- Avoid direct sun for 48–72 hours post-treatment
- Apply SPF 30+ daily (I’ll recommend one that’s acne-safe + dewy, don’t worry)
- Skip hot tubs, saunas, or intense workouts for 24–48 hours
- Stick to gentle skincare and avoid actives until your skin calms
👉 I’ll give you a full printed and emailed care guide—no guesswork, just results.
❌ Microneedling Myths to Ditch Right Now
-
“Microneedling causes sunburn in summer”
➤ Not true. It’s your exposure habits that matter—not the season. -
“You should only microneedle in winter”
➤ False. SkinPen allows for year-round treatment with proper care. -
“It’ll make my skin sensitive forever”
➤ Nope! Sensitivity is temporary and manageable with pro aftercare. In fact, long-term results = stronger, healthier skin barrier.
