Does microneedling the eyebrows with 2.0mm lead to hair follicle damage?

April 2, 2020
Asked By:Pkandgon in California, CA

I did microneedling in my face, eyebrows and edges using 2.0mm depth dr.Pen. Afterwards, I read that people usually use a depth of 0.5mm for hair regrowth. Did I damage the hair follicles in my edges and my eyebrows? Ps.: now, 3 months after my microneedling, and I notice a patchy eyebrow on one side. My edge also got a little sparser. Thank you in advance.
