Can I use a derma roller on c section scar?

October 9, 2017
Asked By:aq33 in Singapore, SG

I had a c section 2 months ago, which healed very well and did not develop any keloids. I wanted to know if it is safe to use a derma roller on the c section scar to lighten its appearance. Will a 1mm needle size be sufficient? Is it too soon to start using a derma roller on my the scar?
