By creating controlled micro-channels in the skin, Microneedling stimulates collagen production, improves texture, and enhances overall skin function. But what happens after the treatment is just as important as the treatment itself. Post-microneedling, the skin’s barrier is temporarily more permeable. Trans-epidermal water loss increases, natural lipids are reduced, and skin can feel tight, sensitized, or reactive if it isn’t supported correctly. This is where product selection becomes critical. Not all skincare is suitable during the microneedling process and especially not in the recovery phase. Products need to support barrier repair, calm inflammation, and replenish lipids without overwhelming or irritating the skin. One product we consistently recommend for this purpose is a raw, unrefined botanical oil blend from Blissoma, Omega Miracle Oil.

Understanding the Role of Lipids After Microneedling

The skin’s barrier is made up largely of oils and fats — ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids. Microneedling, while beneficial, temporarily depletes these essential components.

When lipids aren’t replenished, skin is more prone to:

  • Dehydration

  • Sensitivity and irritation

  • Inflammation

  • Slower recovery

This oil blend delivers a complete profile of Omegas 3, 6, and 9, along with the rare Omega 5 from pomegranate seed oil. 

Omega 5 is a powerful antioxidant fatty acid that helps support barrier repair and protect skin cells from oxidative stress — an especially valuable benefit during post-treatment recovery.



Why Unrefined Oils Make a Difference

Many commercial oils are heavily refined to achieve a clear appearance and neutral scent. Unfortunately, this process can strip away a significant portion of the oil’s natural nutrition — sometimes more than 75%.

This blend is different.

The oils are cold-pressed, unrefined, and used in their raw state, preserving:

  • Phytosterols that strengthen the skin barrier

  • Carotenoids that support UV-exposed and stressed skin

  • Xanthones (from tamanu oil) known for their calming and rejuvenating properties

The natural amber color is a visual cue of the nutrition still intact — a sign that the skin is receiving real, functional support rather than cosmetic filler.



Soothing Sensitized and Hormone-Disrupted Skin

Microneedling clients often fall into categories where skin can already be reactive — acne-prone, hormonally influenced or experiencing changes during pregnancy or perimenopause.

This oil blend was designed with those concerns in mind.

Key ingredients include:

  • Evening Primrose Oil (rich in GLA) to support barrier function

  • Pomegranate Seed Oil with phytoestrogen activity for balance

  • Hemp Seed Oil offering an ideal ratio of Omegas 3, 6, and 9

Together, these oils help bring clarity, calm, and resilience back to skin that feels out of balance, without clogging pores or overwhelming compromised skin.



Microbiome-Friendly by Design

Because this formula is completely water-free, it doesn’t require preservatives, even natural ones. This makes it particularly supportive of the skin microbiome during recovery.

A healthy microbiome is linked to:

  • Improved long-term hydration

  • Reduced reactivity

  • Better skin resilience over time

Antioxidants like rosemary extract and vitamin E are included solely to maintain oil freshness, not to preserve a water phase that doesn’t exist.



Lightweight, Absorbent, and Versatile

Despite being oil-based, this blend absorbs quickly when used correctly. The oils are specifically chosen for facial skin not kitchen-grade oils and leave skin nourished rather than greasy.

This oil is included in the Microneedling Starter Set, making it easy to introduce into your practice. It’s also available as a sample, which is ideal if you want to experience how skin responds before committing to a full size.
