Title: How to use Derma Stamp
Post by: Leong Wai Loon on June 22, 2012, 01:53:06 AM
1) Just stamp multiple times on the same spot of the same scar or just stamp randomly on the same scar?
2) For pitted scar can we just use Derma Stamp itself and not combining with Derma roller?
3) Juz Stamp for 8 times the most for 2.0mm stamp? :)

Stamp randomly on the same scar.

Yes, for pitted scars you can use a dermastamp only. If you have for example post acne pigmentation or other skin tone issues or if the overall surface of your skin is uneven, using for example a 0.5 mm dermaroller is recommended.

Eight times is a general recommendation that can be slightly modified, depending how your skin reacts. You should always start slowly. If it heals OK, you can slightly increase the intensity when you stamp next time but it should not be overdone either. Do not completely mash the skin.

You should stamp more intense if he scar contains hardened collagen fibers, which is often the case with stretch marks or surgical scars.

Obviously, be always more careful on the face than on the skin elsewhere.
