Title: Dermarolling on thin skin with visible veins?
Post by: Rekucika on July 02, 2011, 02:41:18 PM

Hi Sarah!

I'd like to ask you that can I use the dermaroller if I have very thin skin all over my face and body, almost all of my veins are visible on it, and I'm afraid that I would  harm any of them with a 1,5 mm roller, is it possible?

For example, under my eye and at my temple there are very visible veins, are these available distance for a roller? Or at the breast area, csan I use the dermaroller, if there are visible veins?

Thanks for your reply!

Réka

You can control the penetration of the needles by putting more or less pressure on the dermaroller. So far no customer has reported any problems with dermarolling over skin with visible veins. A few customers got bruises using the single needle, because the single needle does penetrate much deeper than a dermaroller and sometimes people go too deep. We have never heard of bruises caused by a dermaroller.  Getting several pinpoint bleeding spots is normal and harmless.  If you are worried, go for a 1 mm dermaroller. A dermaroller will get blunt eventually so you can buy a 1.5 mm with your next purchase (provided that everything worked out allright for you when rolling with the 1 mm).
