After being on travel for the last 3 weeks, I've started rolling twice a week and applying a combination of coconut oil/vitamin a and e oils, dry brushing my marks before every shower and using a scrub on my marks. I can still see them but they have faded quite and they are a lot smoother. Will keep updating this post.

What size needle are you using? I've read that for stretch marks you need to use at least 1.5mm, then eventually work your way up to 2.0mm or greater. Also, you should only be derma rolling every 4-6 weeks. You are not allowing the collagen enough time to rebuild.

I'm only using 1.5 And rolling every other week. I'll be upgrading to 2.0 very soon.

Dema roller at 5 months

W
welljavApril 11, 2015
My stomach at 5 months. I noticed when I roll to much or to frequent, my skin got a little dark so I would wait until my skin healed (got back to it is normal color) until I resumed rolling.

I still continued to dry brush/exfoliate and apply oils everyday, twice a day.

At this point, my skin feels a lot smoother. But you can still visibly see the scars.

Hi. Have you seen a difference though. I am thinking of using Dermaroller on my face was thinking of the derminator from owndoc. Bit one reviewer said in here they thought their wrinkles had occurred by them and one doctor said their is no evidence dermaroller works. Other than cause pain of course. I feel it does and having kids do want to try on my stretch marks too. Bit I really want to start on my face with a .5mm

1.5 is the needle roller length. I exfoliate once a day everyday. Dry brush first then a scrub while skin is wet.

Do you think it doesn't. I have read reviews where people say it does and had fantastic results.

The stretch makes feel significantly smoother. They feel really soft. I can still visibly see them but it depends on the lighting.

I think the dermaroller takes time. I plan on having Hybrid Fractional (fraxel) done on my stomach next month to see if it makes any difference. I wanted to do the dermaroller first to prep the skin. I'm hoping fraxel will just take it to a new lev with my marks.

Yes the stretch marks feel a lot smoother. The ones near my belly button are starting to fade.

Btw, I've used bio oil in the past and it didn't do a thing for me. It made me break out into a rash.
