Hey I would just like to post my experience with the derma roller. Prior to ever using the derma roller my tummy was very crepey and had a lot of loose skin due to me having a 10 lb baby and gaining 50lbs during my pregnancy! I purchased the derma roller in February and this has been my third roll since then I have had greeeaat results!

Of course it's painful, you're rolling needles over your skin and puncturing your skin :)

Looks a bit to good to be true. I've rolled myself a few times, only half of my face, and so far no results!

Give it time! Typically it's a 10 month period before you see real results. Be consistent and use every 5 weeks or so to give your skin time to heal. Are you using any products with or after your rolling? Hyaluronic Acid serum can be used during the treatment and homemade Vitamin C Serum can be used after. Topical Vitamin C is the only thing that will help your skin create collagen and l-ascorbic acid is the best Vitamin C you can use on your skin. You can make your own Vitamin C Serum and Hyaluronic Acid Serum. Hyaluronic Acid is super easy to make. Buy (HA) and hydrate with water. (.99 oz of distilled water to 0.01 oz of (HA)). You could then even add this to your Vitamin C Serum How to make Vitamin C Serum 1 oz of Serum 45% Water 0.45 oz 20% Vitamin C 0.2 oz (or adjust to 5% Vit C, 0.05 oz, change water to 60% .6 oz) (or adjust to 10% Vit C 0.1 oz, change water to 55% .55 oz) Heat distilled water and boil for 1 minute (this will get rid of Dissolved Oxygen which causes the Vit C to oxidize). Cool slightly and add Vitamin C, pour immediately into a 1 oz amber bottle. Shake to dissolve. 30% (HA) 0.3 oz 5% Glycerin 0.05 oz Add (HA) and glycerin. You could also add 5 drops of Lavender. Shake. Store in fridge to prolong freshness. Air and light degrade the Vitamin C. You know when your Vit C Serum has oxidized because it will have an odor OR it will not be clear, but yellowish. Discard at this point. I love that you're doing it on only half you face, so you'll be able to see the results.

I have a question ? I understand the when vitamin c is exposed to heat it looses its effective. Wouldn’t that render he homemade vit c useless. Just asking

Please keep a consistent routine using the derma roller and working out!!

I can say from my experience using the derma roller it works great! I used a 2.0 mm roller and I rolled every 4 weeks! Using Bio oil and a tummy firming lotion after each roll! I also worked out a few times a week! My stomach was disgusting and I'm not comfortable showing it a lot more!
