Pointers With Portela: Reviewing Micro-Needling, Retinol, and Sunscreen

In this week’s Pointers With Portela, the 208SkinDoc reviews questions from social media about micro-needling, retinol, and sunscreen use.

Topics covered include:

  • How often should you do micro-needling?
  • When can I start using retinol?
  • What time of day should I stop applying sunscreen?

Questions can be submitted via Portela's TikTok and Instagram channels, or by commenting on this first YouTube episode.
