Dermarolling / Microneedling / Single needled 1 stretch mark 3 1/2 weeks ago. Mark still red. Normal?
« on: February 01, 2013, 06:54:07 PM »
I single needled one of my stretch marks pretty densely about 3 1/2 weeks ago. I got a fair amount of bruising and it was pretty raised and red for a while. Even though it's been almost a month the stretch mark is still a bit red. It does look less shiny though, and I am optimistic about the results. I am worried about doing the others, though because I want to make sure the redness eventually goes away.
Anyone else experienced a longer than average healing time like me? Keep in mind I haven't been doing the vit A and C nearly as much as I should, so hopefully when I bump those up I'll see a faster healing process. I should also add that these stretch marks took years and years to fade from red to silvery white, so it's worrisome to be back in the red zone for so long. I am planning on doing a needling session every 6 weeks.
Advice?
