FACESHOT

FAQS

• I'M EXPERIENCING A LITTLE REDNESS AFTER USE, IS THIS NORMAL?

  Faceshot™ is an electric microneedling tool which provides a low-invasive skin treatment. As microneedling creates active pathways on the skin’s surface, on occasion, customers may experience a slight redness on the skin immediately after using the device. We would like to assure customers this is common for any microneedling treatment and dependent on skin sensitivity, should usually last no more than a few hours. If redness persists, an unperfumed cooling product such as aloe vera can be applied. Following your treatment, we advise you avoid using any stimulating skincare products such as AHAs, BHAs, retinols and exfoliating products for two weeks post.

• CAN I USE FACESHOT IF I HAVE AN ALLERGY TO NICKEL?

  The microneedles are made of medical-grade steel, which is low in nickel. However, it would be advisable to avoid use if you have a known allergy or sensitivity to nickel. An alternative product would be the FaceGym Hyaluronic Roller.
  

• WHAT ARE THE MICRONEEDLES MADE OF?

  The needles are made of medical-grade stainless steel.

• CAN I USE FACESHOT EVERY DAY?

  For best results, we suggest using Faceshot™ every two days for a bootcamp or once a week to maintain a good exfoliation regime and healthy skin renewal. Use in the evening and do not apply any skincare or makeup after.

• I HAVE AN ALLERGY TO GLYCOLIC ACID. CAN I USE FACESHOT WITH SOMETHING ELSE?

  The Faceshot™ has been designed to be used specifically with the Liquid Vitamin ampoules to achieve maximum exfoliating results. We would recommend that you consider the FaceGym Hyaluronic Roller as an alternative to boost hydration and encourage cellular rejuvenation.

• CAN I REUSE THE NEEDLES SEVERAL TIMES?

  The microneedles are designed for single use only for hygiene purposes. Dispose of them carefully after each use.
