Following a proper routine is essential for getting the best results and keeping your skin safe. Here are the top dermatologist recommendation for effective treatment. 

1

Cleanse Thoroughly 

Start with a clean canvas. Use a gentle cleanser to remove all makeup and impurities.

Pat your skin dry completely before you begin to minimize the risk of infection. 

2

Select the Right Device 

Choose a dermatologist-approved device for safe at-home use.

Qure features 0.5mm gold-plated needles and a built-in chamber for direct serum infusion.

3

Prepare a Sterile Needle Head 

For every treatment, use a new, single-use sterile needle head.

This is a non-negotiable step to prevent contamination and irritation. 

4

Apply Gentle Stamping 

Focus on target areas using a gentle vertical stamping motion.
Apply light, even pressure, move in a grid with 50% overlap, and do 2–3 passes per area.

5

Follow with a Serum 

Post-treatment, skin is primed for absorption.
Apply serums with hyaluronic acid, peptides, or growth factors to boost results.

Note: With Qure Micro-Infusion, this is done automatically during your treatment.

6

Always Use SPF 

Your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight after microneedling.

Finish your routine by applying a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher to protect your newly stimulated skin from UV damage.

How Often Should You Microneedle at Home?

How Often Should You Microneedle at Home?

For devices with a needle length of 0.25–0.5mm, a frequency of once every 1–2 weeks is ideal.

Your skin needs time to heal and rebuild collagen, so avoid daily treatments. A gentle, consistent schedule is far more effective for long-term results than occasional intense sessions.
