While she first gained popularity for her makeup routine and “get ready with me videos,” influencer Alix Earle has since become a prominent voice in the world of acne, beauty and mental health awareness. Candidly sharing her stories of how painful, cystic acne tormented her through adolescence and took a major toll on her self esteem, Earle has since established herself as not only a beauty guru, but an honest individual.
We’ve been invested in Earle’s acne journey since she let us in on it, from her several rounds of Accutane to her new breakouts along her neck and jawline to her lifestyle changes she’s made in pursuit of healthier skin and a healthier life. Now, Earle’s skin is on the rebound, but she, like many of us, is struggling with acne scars. As a result, the 23-year-old social media star tried microneedling for the first time, and the results are incredible.
Alix Earle’s Microneedling Before and After
Whether you’re struggling with acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles or just a general lack of plumpness and radiance in the skin, microneedling has become the new “it girl” procedure for rejuvenating the complexion. With minimal downtime—really just some redness for a few hours afterwards—and incredible results, people can’t get enough of microneedling, and Earle has just added herself to that list.
In a TikTok video just yesterday, Earle showed her skin immediately after getting microneedling done, candidly showing off the red, tender skin that follows the procedure. The next clip, however, had fans aghast, as she showed her skin fully healed and without makeup or a beauty filter, and her complexion was radiant and even-toned throughout. “It hurt, but it’s worth it,” she wrote in the caption, and we couldn’t agree more.
