Description
Derma Roller
192 Titanium Needles, 0.5 MM
Why I like Derma Rolling:
Helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines.
Helps to plump lips by increasing our own collagen production.
Helps to reduce the appearance of pore size.
Helps reduce the appearance of acne scars.
Helps give the face a more lifted and firmer appearance.
Research shows doctors performed biopsies on patients’ skin after eight weeks of dermarolling and found a “dramatic formation of new collagen.” Studies from 2008 and 2010 corroborated those findings and suggested favorable results for acne scars.
Please, dont’ use pressure when derma rolling, LESS IS MORE, trust me 🙂
Before Derma Rolling:
spray your derma roller with alcohol
clean skin very well before derma rolling
contraindications:
eczema
psoriasis
rosacea with active acne
keloids scars
open sores
herpes around mouth
fillers/botox (no right before or after)
laser, IPL / fraxel / RF / Ultherapy (not right before or after)
accutane
what not to do:
no home microcurrent right before or right after. This is a treatment to do by itself.
wait to use retin-a after derma rolling your skin, until your skin goes back to normal (redness and “sunburn sensation” subsides, usually 1 to 2 days.)
I personally don’t like retinoids, or glycolic acid, or any alpha hydroxiacid, or salicylic acid
do not apply oily serums, heavy moisturizers or heavy oils on the skin right after dermaroling.
do not apply make up after derma rolling
What I like to use:
hyaluronic acid with amino acids
Pathology masks
collagen serums
serum with growth factors
certain peptides
serums with stem cells from plants
you can use vitamin c, but don’t use it the first time you derma roll. Use a Vit C that doesn’t irritate your skin or cause bumps when you don’t dermaroll.
coming up is a new serum with growth factors and collagen from True Grace
1 or 2 hours later you could apply a light calming moisturizer
How to clean derma roller:
Rinse well with hot water and then spray with rubbing alcohol
Be careful with needles, they can bend easily
If you take care of your dermaroller, it will last you up to one year
