How Does Dermarolling Differ from Microneedling/Needling?
« on: January 12, 2013, 02:19:31 PM »
I often hear people saying that they do both dermarolling and microneedling.

I used to think that they were the same. If they are different, how so?

Dermarolling (using a device that rolls the skin) is one of several forms of dermaneedling. Other forms of dermaneedling are dermastamping and single-needling, using devices without moving parts.

Needling and microneedling should really be used as synonyms for dermaneedling but those terms are most often used for dermaneedling done by single needles or dermastamps.

To make a long story short: All these words mean the same thing: Using needles on your skin.
