WORTH IT$200
Got a great deal on three treatments of the Dermapen by the person who did my botox and filler (only done that once), so I thought why not? Dermapen is a type of microneedling device, but not a roller. I heard about skin needling (Collagen Induction Therapy - CIT) years ago and the science behind it appealed to me. I just got a new camera and took some pics tonite of the same angles as my before pics and what do you know, after 5 weeks I can see a difference! I paid for a series of 3 and have the next one on Saturday. If there's interest I will write more. For now I will post these pics, see what you think?

I'm having the dermapen procedure done in February 2015. Are you happy with the results you've gotten so far?

Wow that's a pretty noticable difference for just one treatment! What mm size were the needles? Was there much bleeding? Did she use numbing cream?

The needles are adjustable I think and varied on dif areas, seems like she went from .5 up to 2 (mm I guess?). Didn't feel like any bleeding, but obv there is what is in the pic. A little blood looks like a lot, and she had rubbed that all over my face. Numbing cream (a pretty heavy duty one from what I gather?) was applied 30 mins prior and removed before starting.

I appreciate your comments and letting me kind of know what to expect. I guess you are pleased with the results . I so hope it helps with scarring and crows feet around my eyes. You think it will?

I think it will, but takes time, up to 6 months for collagen remodelling. Also, re crows feet, I waited 20 years to try it, wish I'd done it sooner, it works really good for me (have a review on that also) A lot of people do their own rolling, there's a lot of info on the web for DIY rolling, a good site is "owndoc" you should be able to find it, can't post links here. Also you can buy a "dermapen" which is what she used on me. I have one but haven't used it yet (FL yanno! haha) and wrote about that down below. Let me know how it goes! Good Luck!

Going to be doing another MY M treatment next week. I love that pen, I don't need any numbing cream for it and this time I'll adjust it to 1.5 since I have some time off, I'm going to needling the heck out of it. I bought a ton of new needles, their so cheap you don't mind using a new one every few times. Much cheaper than using the roller and so much easier,
