Micro Needling (Dermapen) for Acne Scars - Ohio

I think it looks good. I'm glad to hear you are happy so far. I also had this filler, combined with Belotero in my cheeks and temples and have had improvement in my scars. The doctor said it lasts 1-2 years. I have those scars that disappear when my skin is slightly stretched and my skin looks better anyway when there is more fat in my face (like when I was pregnant it looked so much smoother but I recently lost a lot of weight so it looked worse). I'm getting subcision done on some of the more stubborn ones in 10 days! Can't wait! Keep us updated.

Are you happy with restylane fillers. Do you have to do any more treatment? Thanks

I'm beginning to think I was way overcharged for my microneedling treatments. I did 4 at over 600.00 a treatment and no improvement. Actually, I think I look worse. I heard so many good things about this. Stay with the fillers. That money spent could have given me a whole lot of filler!

I love your results. my dermatologist suggest fillers & i heard many good things about it but wanted to see a clear pic and your results helped convince me. I can’t wait to go back for fillers after I fully heal from my subcision. thank you for sharing.

Good luck! Can you please post some pics now after your latest filler procedure. Thank you!

Hi, I am so glad to hear you're seeing improvement and documenting this experience! We all appreciate it so much. I want to share some info and personal experience. First, I can tell you that the true results will only be seen after 1 year. I know this because I had one fraxel treatment done on a stretch mark and only after a whole year was I able to see a remarkable difference. I am assuming since both fraxel and needling rely on the same healing mechanism, that the length of time before improvement is seen is the same. I had one micro needling treatment which cost $300 done in January of 2016. I wanted to continue but it seemed way too costly because I get treatments for stretch marks with a fraxel laser (a machine that costs $1 million) for $100-$200 on large areas, so obvi the aesthetician and doctor are overcharging us to make a 1000% profit off of this procedure. I ordered the same electric micro needle pen off of amazon for $70 and it comes with 5 needle cartridges and I am going to do this at home for a fraction of the cost. I am 22 years old and perhaps our age has to do with how well our skin bounces back, but if we prep our body for a few months before the procedure by detoxifying, clean eating, exercise and eating lots of greens for vitamin A, collagen, etc, it will certainly help our bodies heal. It's all worth a try. Hope you're successful in achieving flawless skin! Do keep us posted, as there is very little information on first hand experiences out there on this procedure. Good luck, wish you the best.

Thanks for your update . Will keep following you. Hope you get a real success. I was watching a video of a girl who had steroid injections for 3 years every months for a keloid and finally gt the result she wanted. It is on scarrebeauty.com website.

Omg you look really good

I had four Dermapen treatments almost a year ago and there is no improvement at all. 3 weeks ago I had the CO2 laser treatment done so I hope it will help.

How often do you do it at home and what needle length?
