In part 2 of this video, Dr. Shaun Patel performs microneedling using the Eclipse Micropen Elite. He is using microneedling to treat sun damage, large pores, fine lines, and textural abnormality.
The microneedling treatment follows a Clear + Brilliant laser treatment which Dr. Patel explained and performed in part 1 of this video.
Dr. Patel also explained his post-procedure skincare regimen at the end of this video. He recommends patients apply a topical antioxidant such as C E Ferullic from SkinCeuticals starting the morning after the procedure. Immediately after the procedure, Dr. Patel applies C E Ferullic and a bioceullose mask to help calm and hydrate the skin.
The Clear + Brilliant portion of this treatment takes 25 minutes while the microneedling takes 15-20 minutes. The patient also comes into the office 45 minutes prior to their procedure for topical anesthesia using a lidocaine based ointment.
