Thanks Sarah for your reply and time.
I take that  inducing inflammation is necessary for kick-starting the healing cascade, but there is no harm in controlling the inflammation in a while.

Dermarolling / Microneedling / Prolong inflammation or Shorten Inflammation

« on: August 21, 2012, 11:14:47 AM »

Hi Sarah,

I recently purchased a 1mm dermaroll from you and have done 2 derma rollings so far for facial hyper pigmentation and mild acne scars.

My question is is it advisable to put strong anti inflammatory serums right after rolling to expedite healing?
I used a really good anti inflammatory serum after roll and the next morning, I had no signs of a roll.

I realize that the inflammation causes the whole healing process, so what I do right now is actually negating the benefits?
Should I actually let the inflammation happen and let skin take its own time to heal? Does the collagen generation occur for as long as the inflammation remains?

Thanks for your time.
