Dermaroller and derma-stamp in scar treatment

Dermaroller can be used for scar treatment, but Derma-stamp can be a more precise microneedling device to treat scarring - after acne, hypertrophic or atrophic. In my experience depth of needles should be a specific for scar tissue remodelling. Use of Retinol containing preparations also enhances scar reorganization. If you feel your scars are getting worse just ask you physician for revision of your treatment protocol.

Hi maybe derma roller isn't the answer? Maybe a skin peel with a qualified and knowledgeable practitioner will give you the skin you want quicker.
