Combining skincare treatments can be an excellent way to elevate your results, but can you do dermaplaning and microneedling at the same time? Yes, but there's a right way to do it.
These treatments work beautifully together when dermaplaning is done first to exfoliate and smooth the skin, creating the perfect canvas for microneedling.
In this article, we'll dive into how and why this combination works, when it's best to avoid it, and how Qure Skincare's at-home Micro Infusion System can help you achieve professional-level results safely and effectively.
The short answer? Yes, you can combine dermaplaning and microneedling, but with some key caveats. You should always do dermaplaning before microneedling, and it's best to wait 24 hours between the two sessions.
Why? Dermaplaning removes the top layer of dead skin and peach fuzz (vellus hair), creating the perfect canvas for microneedling to work its collagen-stimulating magic.
Because dermaplaning is so safe, this combination can even work for microneedling while breastfeeding or microneedling while pregnant.
According to our research, combining dermaplaning and microneedling is a game-changer for your skincare routine, and here's why. Each treatment brings its unique strengths, but together, they create the ultimate duo for smoother, healthier skin. Let's dive deeper:
Dermaplaning removes the outer layer of dead skin cells and peach fuzz, effectively clearing the way for microneedling to do its job.
Without these surface barriers, the tiny needles in a microneedling tool can penetrate more deeply into the skin, maximizing the treatment's benefits.
This means the serums applied during or after microneedling are absorbed much more effectively, delivering hydration and nutrients exactly where they're needed most. At Qure Skincare, we've designed our Micro Infusion System to take full advantage of this synergy.
With 24K gold-plated, clinical-grade needles and a hydrating serum specifically formulated for optimal results, it provides professional-level results at home, making it the perfect companion to your dermaplaning routine.
Dermaplaning delivers an instant glow. By exfoliating dull, dead skin cells and removing fine facial hair, your skin looks smoother and feels softer right away.
Meanwhile, microneedling works its magic over time by stimulating collagen production. In our experience, this process helps reduce fine lines, acne scars, and uneven skin texture, giving you long-term improvements in your skin's appearance.
Combining these treatments ensures you enjoy the best of both worlds. You get the immediate gratification of dermaplaning's glow alongside microneedling's long-term benefits. The result? Radiant, rejuvenated skin that keeps improving over time.

While dermaplaning and microneedling are often performed in clinics, you don't have to leave your house to experience their benefits. With Qure Skincare's Micro Infusion System, you can safely and effectively incorporate microneedling into your at-home skincare routine.
After putting it to the test, we've found that when used after dermaplaning, this system takes your results to the next level. The 24K gold-plated needles create micro-channels in the skin, allowing the specially formulated serum to penetrate deeply, nourishing and hydrating your skin from within.
Plus, at-home treatments give you the flexibility to work these steps into your schedule without the hassle of appointments.
While combining these treatments is generally safe when done in the right order, there are times to proceed with caution:
If you're dealing with active acne, open wounds, or any kind of skin infection, it's best to let your skin heal before starting dermaplaning or microneedling.
Both treatments involve working directly on the surface of your skin, and performing them on compromised areas can worsen irritation or spread bacteria. Give your skin the time it needs to recover fully before introducing these treatments into your routine.
Some skin types are naturally more prone to sensitivity, and that's okay! If your skin tends to react to new treatments or products, spacing out dermaplaning and microneedling might be the smarter choice.
Doing both treatments too close together could lead to redness or irritation. Start with one treatment and see how your skin responds before adding the second.
If your skin is sunburned or showing signs of sun damage, avoid dermaplaning and microneedling until it has fully recovered.
Sunburned skin is already inflamed, and these treatments could further irritate it, making the healing process longer and more uncomfortable. Instead, focus on hydration and gentle care until your skin is ready for action again.
As a general rule, you should also avoid drinking before microneedling and dermaplaning, as well as coffee before microneedling and dermaplaning.
Combining dermaplaning and microneedling can be a highly effective way to achieve smoother, brighter, and healthier-looking skin. By starting with dermaplaning to exfoliate and prep the skin, you create the perfect foundation for microneedling to improve texture over time.
When done correctly, these treatments can work together beautifully, especially when paired with the right tools. For professional-level results at home, try Qure Skincare's Micro Infusion System and give your skin the care it deserves.
