For best results and safety, we recommend a patch test before your first use, and consulting your doctor or dermatologist if you have any skin concerns.

PURA is designed for most healthy skin types when used as directed, including normal, dry, combination, and oily skin. Because the stamp comes with multiple needle lengths, you can start with the shortest and choose what feels comfortable for you.That said, microneedling isn’t right for everyone. PURA may not be suitable if you have active acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, sunburn, open wounds, or any skin infection, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Please read our “Who should not use PURA?” section for the full list.If you have sensitive skin, a skin condition, known allergies, or take medication, or you’re simply unsure, we recommend consulting your doctor or dermatologist before use. We also strongly recommend a patch test before your first full treatment.

Yes, we strongly recommend a patch test before your first full treatment, and before using any new serum or product alongside your device.Choose a small, discreet area, such as behind the ear or along the jawline.Use the shortest needle length on that spot, following the device instructions.Apply any serum you plan to use.Wait 24 to 48 hours and watch for redness that doesn’t fade, itching, swelling, rash, or irritation.If you notice any reaction, do not continue, and consult a healthcare professional.A patch test lowers the risk of a reaction but can’t eliminate it. If you have sensitive skin or known allergies, please speak with your doctor first.

Disinfecting does not sterilize the tool.Cleanse: Wash your hands and cleanse your skin, then pat dry.Stamp: Using gentle pressure, press the stamp straight down and lift it completely before moving to the next spot. Never roll or drag it, and avoid active pimples, irritated skin, and open wounds. Deeper settings require professional guidance.Aftercare: Keep skincare gentle.

Never share your stamp.

Skin thickness varies across the face and body, so the right needle length depends on the area you’re treating. Start with the shortest length for each area, and only increase once your skin has adapted and you feel comfortable. Face: 0.25 mm to 0.5 mm Eye area: 0.25 mm only. Stay on the orbital bone (the bony ridge around the eye socket), and never use the stamp over the eyelids or close to the eye itself. This includes the soft skin directly under the eye. Body: 0.5 mm to 1.0 mm Scalp: 0.5 mm to 1.0 mm Please note: Longer needles need more recovery time, so see “How often can I use my PURA Derma Stamp?” for guidance. Do a patch test before your first full treatment. Needle lengths above 1.0 mm are for professional use only. Everyone’s skin is different. If you’re unsure which length is right for you, or you have a skin condition, we recommend consulting your doctor or dermatologist before use.

Most people feel mild pressure or a light tingling, and the shorter needle lengths are the most comfortable. Sensation varies by person and by area. Thinner skin, like the forehead and jawline, can feel more sensitive. If you feel sharp pain, stop and reassess your needle length and pressure. If discomfort continues, please consult a healthcare professional.

Your skin may feel more sensitive after treatment, so we recommend keeping your aftercare gentle and simple.Mild redness and tightness can be normal and often settle within 24 to 48 hours.Apply a gentle, fragrance-free hydrating serum, such as hyaluronic acid.Avoid makeup, strenuous exercise, saunas, and swimming for at least 24 hours.Avoid active ingredients like retinol, vitamin C, and exfoliating acids for about 48 hours.Protect your skin from direct sun and use SPF 30+ daily.Avoid touching or picking at the treated area.Everyone’s skin is different. If you experience severe swelling, prolonged redness, increasing pain, or any signs of infection, please stop use and contact a healthcare professional. If you have a skin condition, are taking medication, or are unsure whether microneedling is right for you, we recommend consulting your doctor or dermatologist before use.

How often you can use your stamp depends on the needle length. Longer needles need more time for your skin to recover between sessions.Needle lengthSuggested frequency0.25 mmUp to 2 to 3 times per week0.5 mmOnce per week0.75 mm - 1.0 mmOnce every 4 to 8 weeksWait until any redness, tightness, or sensitivity has fully settled before your next session.If your skin feels irritated, dry, or looks red, give it extra time to recover or pause use.Using the stamp more often will not speed up results and may increase the risk of irritation.Avoid treating the same area again if it still looks or feels sensitive.For the eye area, we recommend 0.25 mm only, used at the lower end of the range.Needle lengths above 1.0 mm are for professional use only.Individual needs vary. If you’re unsure how often to use your stamp, or you have a skin condition, we recommend consulting your doctor or dermatologist before use.

Yes, but choose carefully. Use gentle, fragrance-free, water-based products such as hyaluronic acid, applied after treatment. Because microneedling can increase absorption, avoid strong actives (retinol, vitamin C, AHAs/BHAs) and heavily fragranced products right before and for about 48 hours after treatment. Always patch test a new product first. If you’re unsure about a product, ask your doctor or dermatologist.

Results vary from person to person. Many people notice their skin looks and feels more refreshed after several weeks of consistent, correct use, but this is not guaranteed. Factors like age, skin type, sun exposure, skincare routine, and lifestyle all play a role. PURA is intended for cosmetic use and is not a medical treatment.

Clean your stamp before and after every use. Rinse it under warm water, soak the needles in 70% isopropyl alcohol for 5 to 10 minutes, and let it air dry. Store it in its clean, covered case away from moisture. Never share your device.

Replace your stamp every 1 to 3 months, or per your product guidance, or sooner if the needles look bent, dull, or damaged, or if the device has been used by someone else or dropped. Never use a damaged device.

Some people use microneedling on the body to support the appearance of skin texture. Results vary and are not guaranteed. Do not use the stamp on raised, keloid, or fresh scars, or on any broken or irritated skin. If you have scarring or are unsure, consult your doctor or dermatologist before use. Needle lengths above 1.0 mm are for professional use only.
