Hey guys,So I made a bit of a boo boo. I was going through a pretty bad tanning phase recently. But thankfully I stopped. Anyway, I feel like i messed up badly. a few weeks ago, on a friday, I had a microneedling session done on my face. I occasionally get those for my acne scars. Anyway, long story short, on a friday, I had a microneedling session done, and for some reason ( no clue what possessed me to do this ) on that sunday, i decided to go to a tanning bed salon. I was still pretty red from the microneedling session at the time. I also went to the tanning bed several days after again. So i went 2 times within a week after my microneedling session. And after looking at my skin, I really feel like that might have really messed up my face. I feel like it caused more scars than when I started. I have asked several people about it, and all of them said they didn't notice that they got worse. So i have no clue if i am being paranoid or not. But my question is, is it possible for that my scars may have gotten a lot worse from going to a tannig bed right after my needling session?
