Derma Roller 3.0mm Just Started Hope to See Improvement After Few Treatments - British Columbia

$200
So I just started using a Derma roller 3.0mm for my super deep acne scars..
These photo was taken 5 days after my first treatment.
I will post more pictures after my second tx to see if there is any results.
I used a numbning cream cause 3.0mm is the deepest one, and I tell you after the topical anesthesia effect is gone... it is so painful... but it doesn't last long... after 10 to 20 mins the tingling pain decreases.

Yes actually I also read that if your going to used derma roller at home the highest needle is only up to 2.5mm but I think my scars really need deeper than 2.5mm for maximum result... I'm doing great though.... I'll post my picture after my second treatment.... I will keep everyone posted... ^_^

Hello there sorry for the late reply... i leave the numbing cream for 45 to 60 mins before i roll... ^_^

Glad to see you didn't post this too long ago so I can still help. 3.0 is WAY too long to be using on your face. I know you were probably thinking "oh the longer the better, and I want the best results". Not the case. 3.0 is designed for use on arms/shoulders and such where the skin is much thicker. You should NEVER exceed 1.5 mm on your face or you risk doing irrepairable damage to your skin. Please please please throw that 3.0 away and start off with a 1.0 mm and see how that helps. Wait 6 weeks between treatments so your skin can heal. You'll get there, but bigger isn't better in this regard.

Hello john thanks for the info... I will try to use 2.0mm ^_^ so far i dont get any discoloration or damage from using 3.0mm ^_^ but I will go down to 2.0mm cause i've seen on the other site that for acne scarring thay recommend 1.5mm to 2.5mm :) I really appreciate your help... God bless

Hey i want dermaroller
January 2, 2015
The 540 needle isn't really recommended widely, look into it

Hi Maria, I was thinking of getting this roller***removed 3rd party link*** its 540 1mm needle but sounds like I shouldn't. What is the recommended needle type for a beginner who wants to treat fine lines? Thx

Hi there. Looks much smoother! May I suggest also trying a stem factor serum instead of the Ole Hnerickson serum? Such as the osmosis stem factor or neocutis serum? I think vitamin C would be too irritating soon after a roll for my skin *which used to be tough and is no more after chemical peel...
Let us know your progress...

I'm afraid of serums as I've tried most of them & they all cause breakouts. I like the neocutis best but love the Dr. Graf peptide line from HSN. Thanks for answering & please keep me updated.

Same to you! BTW, my GF is a RNP & loves Dermaroller, but told me to disinfect with denture cleeaner!! I now use alcohol in spray bottle, but she said drop in H2O with denture tablet every few days to get bacteria hidden in needles. I'm only on a .25, but ready to move up to a 1. You're great...keep in touch! ld !
Thank you for sharing, I look forward to following your progress. Can you share a photo of your roller?
Oh, that's really cheap...it looks like it's good quality. I am so undecided on which one to buy and I have seen lots on ebay. I am just not sure I want to deal with the pain, I can't picture myself pressing hard enough to penetrate the skin.
How long do you leave your numbing cream on for?
