Not advisable do sports after dermarolling?
« on: December 09, 2011, 11:53:44 AM »
Hi Sarah,

I read on a website offering dermarolling that one shouldn't train or practice sports after dermarolling. I actually did ... do you think it really does affect the results?

thank you for your answer

Lino

Not advisable do sports after dermarolling?

No, it doesn't affect the results but it is not a good idea to do really exhausting, perspiration-provoking exercise immediately after dermarolling with long needles - for example rolling your entire abdomen with a 1.5 mm dermaroller and immediately go running a marathon or do sport or anything that involves getting the rolled area dirty, injured or touched. The skin is inflamed for an hour or two after dermarolling with long needles; it is vulnerable and is slightly prone to infection so you should just treat it accordingly. I don't think there is any problem with mild exercise as long as you do not touch the rolled area and it is not in a dusty or dirty environment.

If you get scabs (they sometimes form after needling or stamping). Do not pick on the scabs - it could cause scarring. Let them fall off naturally. Do not use anything that can make the scabs fall off prematurely- such as exfoliation, massage, friction during exercise etc.
