Title: broken capillaries or Rosacea
Post by: db28 on August 30, 2010, 06:53:34 AM

Dear Sarah

I am wondering if it's safe to use the dermaroller on the face, if the person suffers from broken capillaries (skin redness) or rosacea (I wanna order it for my aunt - she's  37). If so, do you think it could improve any of these conditions ? (The main use for the dermaroller is to reduce wrinkles)

thanks

If Rosacea is severe, it is not recommended to use a dermaroller.  Since the cause of Rosacea is unknown, it is rather unpredictable what can worsen Rosacea.  In mild cases, do a test patch and you will see. It might be totally OK but unfortunately not everybody reacts the same way - so a test patch is a must.

   

  Concerning broken capillaries, there are claims that a dermaroller could improve this condition. However, neither myself nor any of our customers have reported improvement with broken capillaries. Neither do they reportedly worsen, though. I achieved improvement of my wrinkles after several months. The wrinkles are still there but they are shallower.
