So i've been reading about anything and everything i can find on dermarolling, i have some pitted scares on my upper cheeks, and i've been looking into ways i can improve them. (i am a realist and i know they most likely won't fully go away but i'm looking to improve them as much as possible!) i just have a few questions before i start...

What size needles did or/are you using?

(where did you buy the dermaroller)

I really don't want to get a piece of sh*t one :I

If you've seen any improvement on rolling/or boxscar scaring?

(i have rolling scares, and one or two boxscar scaring)

i'm really hoping i'm a good candidate for this!

how much improvement have you seen?

if someone can help me out, i will love you forever! biggrin.png

I use the derma STAMP (not roller) $14 on Amazon prime- Highwinwin is the brand...I like the stamp better as I just target 6 areas- I clean my face and stamp each zone 6 times randomly - I then follow immeadiately with super cp serum...others use topical vitamin C. Search on this site there is a lot of information out there to gain from other users.

I've been doing it about every 10 days (when I remember) for about 7 or 8 months, and improvements are very slow but steady on my rolling scars. I'm just not brave enough to use a 1.5mm stamp, which in theory would give you better (maybe quicker) results.

Make sure you clean the stamp after, swish in anti bacterial dish soap in a dish with water, then soak in alcohol for at least 15 minutes- then rinse in boiling water and let dry and recap.

I've heard from a lot of people that even the dirt-cheap ones on ebay are exact dupes for the 150 ones. I'm considering getting one with my next paycheck (super skint at the moment haha)
