Dermarolling / Microneedling / Re: How useful is the 1 mm dermaroller?
« on: September 15, 2012, 05:34:28 AM »the neck, the back of hands, the area around the eyes, décolleté etc and for those who want to refresh the skin but do not yet have really deep lines. A 1 mm dermaroller does reach the dermis and trigger collagen.
You can also for example use a 1 mm roller on your face and then treat the wrinkles around the lips and on the forehead individually with a 1.5 mm dermastamp (a 1.5 mm dermastamp is usually too long for the area around the eyes and you may end up with bruises).
A 0.5 mm roller reaches the top of the dermis and it does improve the overall skin texture (if used long term). It is not suitable for deep lines
or scars. It is excellent for pigmentations (except for dermal melasma and other deep pigmentations) and post acne spots.
Yes, you can use a dermaroller and a dermastamp during the same session.
