Can a dermaroller 1.5mm cause damage to hair follicles?

Asked By:P445 in New York, New York

Hi, Two months ago I used a Dermaroller 1.5mm on my scalp for my hair loss. I didn’t put much pressure and I didn’t bleed, but I felt a bit sore for a day. I feel that my hair is a bit thinner now then before Dermarolling, and I can see very small patches that doesn’t have hair on my scalp. I hope it’s just a shedd, since I been taking Finasteride and Minoxidil for three months. Is it possible that I damaged my scalp or hair follicles by using a Dermaroller 1.5mm once? Thanks in advance!
