Your skin seems just fine scar wise, there are many occasions where needling can just make things worse when you really have nothing to treat. I would stay away from it. You could achieve the same results by just applying Retin A (vitamin A) right after taking a shower when your pores are open. It's effecient and is far safer.

But if you really want one, get something like 1.0 or less.

Do you mean retin-a Micro? That is what I was prescribed a long time ago, but now I use Benzaclin and Tazorac.

Do you think if instead of a derma roller I used Retin-a and got Microdermabrasion I would be better off?

If you don't mean the topical Retin-A micro, where do i find the other retin a that your talking about?

Thanks!!

So like, I want to get Vitamin A powder because I saw that many people said it lowers oil production. I also read somewhere here that if you mix it with your moisturizer then it is very good at lowering oil production!

The only problem is that I can't find it in here anymore! They had a link for where to buy the Vitamin A powder, does anyone know?? (it is vit. a right))???
