Q: What should I put on my skin while microneedling?


A: Great question—and the answer has evolved with new research!

While microneedling, it’s important to keep the skin damp to ensure smooth glide and proper needle penetration. We recommend using Le Mieux Iso Cell Recovery Solution during the needling process. It hydrates and soothes without interfering with the skin’s natural healing response.

What about stem cells and growth factors?
It might seem like a good idea to needle those in—but here’s what we’ve learned:
Needling over stem cell or growth factor serums can actually damage their structure, making them far less effective. These delicate ingredients aren’t designed to be pushed into the skin during microneedling.

The new best practice?

  • During needling: Use Iso Cell Recovery Solution to keep skin hydrated.

  • After needling: Apply your growth factor serum—like Plated Calm or Plated Intense—to maximize absorption and results.

This updated approach ensures you're getting the full benefits of your advanced serums without compromising their effectiveness.
