I had Botox today and was wondering if it would be OK to do dermapen skin needling 2 days later. Or, should I wait longer? If so, why?

It would be fine to have microneedling 2 days after Botox treatment. Botox targets the muscles that produce facial expression and facial expression lines. Microneedling targets the dermis and epidermis - more superficial than the muscle - so there is no interference in treatments.

I had Dermapen done three days ago to reduce stretch marks on my inner thighs. The area is still very red and bruised. Should I be concerned? Will the bruising fade? I'm concerned it will get and look worse.
