Title: crepe skin
Post by: execellentduam on December 16, 2012, 02:55:47 PM
Hi Sarah,what is the best way to take care off crepe skin? i have been having pretty good sucess with the dermaroller and derma stamp in most other areas,such as skin tightening, crows feet, wrinkles and that type of thing,and as i have stated to you in a previous e-mail, i have been  derma rolling and derma stamping for four months now.The process seems to have worked well with all the other imperfections,but as far as the crepe skin goes,around both cheek bone areas by the way,it hasnt really moved a muscle.I have used the 0.5mm roller and stamp,the 1.0mm roller and stamp and the 1.5mm roller and stamp and all to no avail in four months.,all with the vitamin c powder ,copper peptides,retin a 0.025 and the infadolan ointment.I have a 2.0mm derma roller and a 2.0mm derma stamp here at home so i think i will give them a shot,should they do the job,so to speak?And if they do, how long could it take before seeing noticeably resuls in this area?And if they dont do it then what should?Many thanks as ever, your help would be greatly appreciated. :)

I am not sure what exactly you mean by crepey skin in your case..

The skin may still further improve because the initial Collagen III that forms after dermarolling is slowly being converted to Collagen I and that can take many months to complete.

We were so impressed with your results that we put your previous forum posting as sticky:

Hi Sarah,two things firstly,by crepey skin i mean like gathered, is the best way i can describe it,sort of some parts of the skin around the top of the cheek bone area gathered together between the bone that you can feel directly under the eye, and the top of your cheek.And secondly what do you mean by putting my previous posts down as sticky?Many thanks. :)

Your microneedling routine should improve crepey skin eventually and I do not have any better advice than what you are already doing.

Dermarolling however does not improve every single skin problem in every single individual. I managed to nicely improve wrinkles around my lips and in between the eyebrows but my crow's feet have not improved almost at all.
