Hello,
I've rolling, depressed, pitted acne scars on my cheeks since last 3-4 years. Is dermaroller effective for these types of scars? |

hey all, Please give me your advise/opinions.... I am very interested in the idea of the needling techniques, because results ive seen. Plus im afraid of lasers. I have V. bad scarring, some rolling, some ice picks, some burn scars. my cheeks are a mess, so ANY improvement would be good. Most of my skin damage was done via bad laser resurfacing where i was badly burned, about 10 yrs ago. Since then ive had isolagen subscions, (some improvement) and many peels. My acne is settled, now its my scars im haunted by, im dedicated to improvement. Like everyone, all i want is smooth skin.smoother..anyway. So ive been to a clinic, and seen a doctor, here in australia, and she reccomended a series of needling treatments in her clinic, with the medical grade roller, that causes more damage, and needs about a weeks recovery, and a roller i have to buy from her and use at home.... Its actually all very expensive. Now im seeing alot of people on this forum are rolling themselves, i wonder if the salon treatments are worth it?? Also, I have seen the doctor who invented the clearskin roller, and hers seems a good one to buy for home use. The one that lasts 12 months. Has anyone seen real results from needling? either professionally or at home?? i know before & after photos are BS. Ive been in a magazine and on tv showing my face trying to fix scars. hi adell. i used the .75 home roller on and off for a few months. i've noticed some improvement (read my post above). but when they say it lasts for a year, that's a bunch of bullcrap. i'd say maybe 2-4 months, then you need a new one. especially if you go over bony parts (jaw, forehead, etc). check out my topic i posted about my roller. if left linez all over my face after a while (i put pics in there too). my advice would be to YES go to a professional when they do the 1.5mm roller. because, you can do it at home. but it kinda hurts. so, you'll probably not roll as hard as you should. on the other hand, if you have a pro do it, they'll make sure the roller goes down all the way. after they do it, i think you wait 2 weeks, and then do a home rolling daily, with the .75mm needlez. and those .75 rollers, those don't hurt at all. just kinda tingle. oh ya, don't worry about it ruining your face (like the co2 burned you). since it's just needlez poking you, the little holes close back up pretty quickly. you're just red for a few days. but really, there's no threat of permanent damage. (i think it affects the dermis, the deep layer, where your scarz reside. and pretty much doesn't bother the epidermis, which is the outside skin layer, the layer we see). Hi, I saw a really good article on 'how to roll', I used it and no more lines on my face here's a link - http://reviews.ebay.com.au/Maximising-the-...000000010747669 I use the .75mm roller with copper peptides and I've been really happy with mine. Cheers |

That site appears to sell the Dr. Roller, which is a good one. You can get cheaper elsewhere though.
Also, I wouldn't buy from that site, or any other sites that make the derma roller to be miracle cure with deliberate false advertising. The before and after pictures are a joke. - Hair loss: hair held back in before picture, forward on after picture - Stretch mark removal around belly button: before picture shows skin pressed together belly button line form, after picture shows normal or stretched skin belly button round form This post has been edited by tj101: Oct 11 2009, 11:37 PM |

yeah, agree
i hate it when u see the before and after pics, and its sooo obvious that they have manipulated the lighting to be softer inthe after pics. false advertsing! and they prolly use makeup to cover up in the after pics, as opposed to the before |

Has anyone experienced additional scarring due to the use of the Dermaroller ? Hi all. I've just started a blog on this site about my experience with the medical roll-cit. I had the procedure done yesterday and now I'm in recovery mode. Check out my blog for a day to day update and also for before and after pics (as soon as I can figure out how to upload them!) Eve |
