Microneedling Treatment & Cosmelan Peel For My Melasma! | Susan Yara

[@pietropieroni5685]

hi i'm a guy in the 40th, from europe so ,i do that already two years at home .i have the exactly the same reaction every time . after the treatment , i put a sheet mask from the fridge ,to cool down and keep essence to my skin , attention, that the essence don't burn and redness your skin . after the mask i have try multi cream but they burn , so only two i can say calm down my face , snail from cosrx , and coco butter . the only think for i guy is to choose the right time ,because for 1/2 days you can't go out for the redness . i have same peeling after 4 days. but for two weeks your skin is more bright ,elastic ,and with time some dark spots ride of .

[@Tori-dr6jh]

My practitioner freaked out when I told her someone had full on needling then Cosmelan straight after onto raw skin! You're a braver person than me. I'm 8 days into my Cosmelan and it's as much as I can put up with discomfort wise on my face! Good effort!

[@karynamg]

Omg, so related! I used everything and nothing worked until I decided to go to this dr that specializes on melasma. He actually told me that my skin developed resistance on all treatments. I had the cosmelan treatment (1 and 2) a month ago and now my skin is much much much better! Still 2 months to go and a lifetime to keep taking care of my skin, but I am really happy! You will love the results.

[@prabjot2832]

Hi, I’m intending to do cosmelan, just wondering if you could share your experience, isn’t worth it, does melasma come back??? Thanks in advance

[@rosaeliaiturbide3846]

What doctor did you go to?

[@ritasharqawi7367]

Karina Martinez any updates please

[@laylaaabdul-khabir129]

can you do a review of faded & cyspera and the updated hyperpigmentation treatments you’ve been using? thanks!!

[@eatlittlebird]

Would love to see an update on how your skin is looking after this treatment. Also, how many micro needling sessions have you had? Thank you!

[@felixaripa6482]

Master esthetician here and I am sooo excited for this video❤️😁

[@YuliaRamos]

I've done microneedling without numbing cream a couple of times and it's not that bad actually. Also oral tranexamic acid is used to treat bleeding

[@felixaripa6482]

After day 5-6 u can use a enzymatic exfoliant to aid in the superficial sloughing of the skin😁❤️

[@donneashleykritzinger9818]

Hi Susan. Can you please do a dedicated video on treatments for smile lines? 😊

[@NARCISSISTMAGAZINE]

try sio patches

[@bbybee]

I’ve been struggling with hyperpigmentation for a couple of years now and have tried a lot of things to combat it. Retinol, alpha arbutin, liquid exfoliating, vitamin c, I’m now trying tranexamic acid.

[@monikaho5042]

Thanks for sharing Susan. I’m ready for another microneedling treatment. It has helped my skin with my acne scars.

[@max10e30]

I did PRP 5 times and I can confirm that it doesn’t help with hyperpigmentation 😔 but it’s ok because I did it for the deep scarring I had from cystic acne. It did help a lot but I think I need to go back and do another 3-5 so it’s gone

[@jacquelinejones8252]

Considering what you've gone through with this treatment, you complexion is beautiful despite the melasma. Enjoy your videos on skincare.

[@shonixl]

If you add a light tint to your windows along with uv protection tint all around it will help a lot with keeping that hyperpigmentation away. The sun reflecting thru the glass window is really harmful to the left side of your face and your hands when driving even for short periods of time.

[@rashmashedpotatoes]

I was actually thinking your skin looks great even before the treatment!

[@moonlitskyes]

thanks a lot susan now I’m going to spend a fortune on microneedling 😩 if it made your already amazing skin look even better with one treatment it must be the real deal lol thank you for vlogging your experience!

[@marcellina4270]

I literally just booked a Microneedeling appointment 😂😂😂

[@turuhirangaronoa8791]

Could we please get an update on the results of this treatment now that it is almost 7 months later. Very interested to hear about the effectiveness.

[@brechttt]

I always use la roche posay cicaplast after treatments. Works pretty well.

[@nicolebeck1269]

I have not done micro needling for my melasma because I have heard it can possibly worsen it. It’s so confusing! I don’t want to do something to worsen it!

[@BeckyCantu]

I’ve done 4 treatments with 0 results for my age spots on my cheeks. No improvement. If you want to try it, you can start with a small needle. You could talk to your dermatologist, they might work with you on that.

[@bmarie8965]

Got to cleanse the liver

[@aftonphelps3885]

Girl You were so calm. I just had this done today and it was verrrry uncomfortable I was quite skirmy.. it's going to be worth it 100% but it was definitely spicy!

[@angelicatejada5179]

Omg I am terrified to get this done, my skin is so sensitive. But I shall give it a try. Your skin is looking GREAT. What kind of sunscreen are you using for your kiddos or which ones are your favorites... can you make a video on it please 👍🏻🙏

[@Akshay-08]

Hey Susan! Have you tried glutathione?? As it is an antioxidant which is prescribed by dermatologists to treat uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, etc. Glutathione can be using in several ways like oral, under the tongue spray form, injections. . Among all of these ways, injections are more effective as compared to tablets which hardly gets completely absorbed in the body. I am not sure whether it will lighten melasma or not! . My dermatologist did this treatment for me and now, the texture of my skin is amazing, it is soft and glowing. . It has turned my skin tone 3-4 shades light! Please do your research and see if it works for you

[@annieqamar6667]

Did you get injections and how many? How old are you

[@Akshay-08]

@@annieqamar6667 yes! I did got the injections as IV therapy like the Reviv company. But, unlike them my dermatologist do customised treatments. The number of IV drip depends on your body weight, how damaged your skin is and how much amount of glutathione is prescribed.

[@MartaCanga]

Loving all of the super regular content uploads Susan!! Thank you xx

[@DaniOchannel]

Wow, can certainly see the difference! Thanks for sharing, Susan. You're beautiful Xx

[@drerinwhite8511]

I had horrible melasma during and after my pregnancy. I used rice powder mixed with water as my exfoliator 2-4x/week and it helped clear it up very quickly. I also used unrefined rosehip seed oil as my moisturizer afterwards. My skin seems to do better if I exfoliate more than the recommended 2-3x/week. You can just grind up rice in a coffee grinder and use that .

[@ginabattz9716]

Just any rice?

[@felixaripa6482]

Incorporating copper peptides or egf during the healing stages or anything with a damage cascade can further stimulate fibroblasts and speed heal time.

[@melf8609]

Hi! Are there any products that you specifically recommend? I’m going to get microneedling with either RF or PRP and the after care product they sell is $150 for arnica gel basically. Thank you if you have time to respond!

[@adrianner9621]

i do microneedling quite regulary due to my post acne hyperpigmentation and scars, but everytime I do it I'm told not to put ANYTHING on my face for 48h, the esthetician would always leave my blood with serum on my face rather than wipe it off... he said it would heal better and when I wash it off with water at night before bed it doesn't look as bad and irritated. Any thoughts guys?

[@mistressyoda]

Yeah i was told no heavy cream, no oils, no makeup and no actives for around seven days post microneedling. sunscreen okay after 72 hours.

[@deniseskerrett9670]

Really appreciate you being open as always and showing us your treatments👏🏾👍🏽 ! Pigmentation struggles are tough and a combination of skincare and treatments are most effective! Thanks Susan x

[@Saoirse3797]

Love love love the fact you went to a Licensed Professional to get a peel instead of DIY!!!! I’ve seen some scary DIY videos out there!!!

[@joanaddict]

Yay! I do see a difference! Definitely brighter and as you said the melasma looks like freckles now. So pretty ❤️

[@dilarainnc464]

Omg you are using the wrong products😱 you have to use cosmelan 2 creme after the cosmelan treatment

[@natilasaunders8740]

I wonder how it turned out without the cosmelan 2 crème 😮

[@HabeshawitHanna]

I wish you only did the cosmelan 1 and 2 I think the microneedling was a bit too much combined with the cosmelan

[@The.Caroline]

We don't do any numbing cream before microneedling where I live, so I find it so weird haha. Honestly, it doesn't hurt that bad at all. Kind of feels like someone is lightly scratching your skin. The worst part is probably the peel going on and stinging quite a bit, but also here it's done differently - but probably dependant on which kind of peel you get - I got a mandelic peel last time and it gets neutralized after being on for however many minutes, and the treatment ends with a calming mask. So although the redness is still present after the treatment it's more of a Susan's day 4 redness. My facialist always says it's good the patient/customer doesn't see how red their faces are before the calming mask.

[@tyler8606]

So fun! I’m currently training in microneedling. It’s the best

[@jackelineferreyra9078]

Hi Susan. My sister had this cosmelan treatment a years back and the esthetician leave the product for 8 hours and after that she starting to peeling a lot! But the results were amazing. She got ride of her melasma after that. What surprised me is in your case I don't see a big difference as I sow on my sister maybe is the time of the mask should be left make a difference in the results 🤔 just sharing my thoughts. Greetings from London!

[@kristinaf1674]

I was wondering the same. Is it because she used MD cosmelan?

[@zoeloumarcelle]

That’s so very interesting Susan! I love the embedded reporter style of the video. It’s actually super reassuring to watch before doing an intense treatment, cause we can see that the skin heals and you do look better after a few days. 😘😘

[@rhondasilver3582]

Hi Suzan How many micro needling treatments did you do until you figured out it was actually making your melasma worse? As I heard you say this in another video

[@julesl4525]

I love that visor! I've had melasma too... I had IPL and chemical peels along with skincare products that maintain a high cell turnover rate.

[@louistulloch1159]

'What is going on?! Getting rid of Melasma, that's what!' I mean, what else could it be?! I love it!!

[@RaineRallon]

love you Susan! That microneedling looked really rough but I'm sure you were in great hands. Thanks for posting amazing content

[@anew5118]

Anyone have the link to the UV protection visor Susan is wearing?! Or know of one of a similar quality? Thank you!

[@kristeneg7632]

I’m wondering if in this case would you double cleanse all that off before nighttime skincare? Great video Susan!❤️❤️

[@MikeClimaco]

I've done this before. You can't wash your face for 24-48 hours at least.

[@monique1163]

That visor reminds me of the face shields that we use in the labs.😄

[@kelly1827]

It reminded me of a welder's shield LOL

[@annacross586]

Hello Susan I been following you since I knew KZbin! And I’ve learned a lot about skincare!! I wish I can meet you one day? Im in California too, 2 hours away from San Francisco.and ohhh I’m Asian too...😘😘🤗🤗

[@JosephineMarch7]

I have my first appointment for microneedling this Friday for hyperpigmentation and also wrinkles. Hope it goes well. I was recommend to do three sessions.

[@lindatran7385]

By the way my hyperpigmentation has noticeably faded. I am 51 and I have no wrinkles on my neck and my eye bags have been reduced. If I stick to a good amount of sleep I wouldn’t have eye bag issues, I believe. The products I use while I’m going through with the micro needling is by Environ. My skin care routine is very simple with not a lot of products.

[@JosephineMarch7]

@@lindatran7385 That´s great, thank you for sharing. BtwI had to cancel my appointment today due to lockdown but hopefully soon I will be able to go and see for myself ;)

[@cheryllynne69]

Question susan!! So melasma is triggered by heat. I heard after peels and micro needling you need your skin to breath and not trap heat in. So why use oil and Vaseline? Isn’t that counter productive? Thank you for sharing!

[@mistressyoda]

Yeah i was told no heavy cream, no oils, no makeup and no actives for around seven days post microneedling. sunscreen okay after 72 hours.

[@ludmila8755]

Dermamelan would work better. You are also suppose to be applying the cosmelan 2 cream 3x a day for 1 month and then 2x for the next 9 months. The lighting of the spots continues with applying that after care cream. You shouldn't rub the skin when applying products whilst peeling.

[@brookeelle6879]

I just bought Naturium’s squalane oil a week ago (before this was posted) specifically for aftercare for my upcoming Chemical peel, even though it says nowhere that that’s a recommended use lol nailed it!

[@mollynavarro4101]

Omgosh I’m getting my first micro needling treatment next week! I’m so excited yet nervous! Have you tried ZO health skincare products? Thank you Susan got this video

[@vannavanity1195]

I enjoyed your video. You're funny and sarcastic. I'm going to do a cosmelan peel next month. I just did microneedling with PRP and there's dental work to be done in two weeks

[@Kevin-jd4dc]

shouldn't they give you some sort of sun protection for the drive home? Or schedule at dusk?

[@MiaaMiss]

For the average gal who doesn’t have all those items, do you recommend just the squaline oil and aquafor ?

[@SusanYara]

Yes!

[@aureliedelphine]

thanks for this useful vid I also suffer from melasma it's the worst! chemical spf can make your melasma worse fyi! kojic acid / licorice are also other useful lightening ingredients.

[@liliz639]

With this treatment dermamelan-cosmelan you need a specific recovery treatment cream and sunscreen I never feel bad or stink with mesoaestetic

[@RajanKumar-dd6rc]

I have acne scars from so long, what treatment will be good for me? Thanks

[@pepfactorskinandscalp2448]

Hi Susan, your skin looks great. PepFactor Skin actually delivers never seen before results. PepFactor Skin is a great product to combine with microneedling and peels and will assist with skin rejuvenation whilst reducing healing time significantly.

[@saram3605]

I got microneedling done on my facial skin and its the worst thing I've ever done to my face.. My face has so many wrinkles and white bumps

[@pablomcn]

can't wait to receive my naturium vit c super serum. just watching u dropping your squalene one makes me feel excited! thanks for putting all my skin routine in 1 bottle!!! u go gurl

[@BrooklynsFineAss]

Can I ask what is the different between microneedling and sublative laser treatment? Appreciate if someone can advice? And which one is less painful? 🤣😂🤣😂

[@CarolyneP]

Awesome video! Can't wait to get back on track with my peels 🤗

[@rubiyanoor4123]

Hi Susan, would you like to share how you were cleansing your skin like right after the peel and afterwards?

[@cjanderson6941]

That was so interesting!! Thanks for sharing your experience! Have you ever thought about using Tri Luma? I think you would like it. If you keep using it with breaks in between, you will definitely see a difference in the hyperpigmentation.

[@phondaraith7395]

I can still see your melasema. I have melasema as well thst I’m trying to get rid of it for over 15 years now and it have been doing everything except micro needling.

[@mistressyoda]

Wonder if Skinceuticals Discolouration Defense can work for this, heard great things but have not tried yet

[@jimmystone]

How old are you? If you don't mind me asking. If you're 40+ then what you're doing is definitely working 💪

[@yasmeenporter2028]

Can we use squalene in place of a daily moisturizer?

[@alvomac4]

OMG February 25th was my birthday!! I mostly stayed home on my b-day, so I’m living vicariously through you lmao 😂💜💜💜

[@kamillelord3891]

Susan, can you do a video on what type of treatments are best for certain age ranges?

[@kamillelord3891]

I really just want to know what treatment is the best for anti-aging 😊

[@pdxportlandia]

I hate chemical peels they take so long to recover I rather do micro-needling any day. What made you use squalene oil and not hyaluronic acid?

[@rosaeliaiturbide3846]

Can you do video how you color correct w your makeup

[@-monika-monika]

It already looks so good 😍 Is it safe to do that with rosacea?

[@svetlanapil8089]

My goodness the amount of products you are using! If you'll stop using them, your skin will be so thankful.

[@silviadiaz1248]

I recently heard about profound RF, and as soon as i savr up for it I am getting it! It promises non-surgical results similar to a face lift because it tightens the skin much more dramatically than other microneedling RF devices. And you only need one treatment. I am currently getting intensif to address my old acne scars, and it totally works. I have my third and last treatment in about 4 weeks. So my next step (in a few years) is overall skin tightening without the surgery. I thought of you as soon as i heard about this- you might find it interesting. If you do it, def do a video. Would love to see your experience and results! 🤗

[@Dannywithlove]

i have an appointment on April too, probably will get a chemical peel and i’m scared😂 any tips?

[@BrooklynsFineAss]

Hi Susan, can I ask shouldn’t microneedling blood come out from your face? If not, does it as effective as when the blood come out all over your face? … hope you reply :)

[@dominiquedery8259]

So if I understand, micro needling firt and cosmelan #2 for 4 hours. What about cosmelan #1 ? Thank you do must. I will wait for your answer xxxx

I've worn N95s before (was a paramedic for 21yrs) and I highly doubt it. The edges of the mask are not really padded and if I was having a roseacea flare it would be so sore feeling 😥
