I guess it just depends on the mm of the roller you get .. And how big it is, and also how severe your scars are.. I had light pitted scars and started off with the .05 mm.. I started using it once a week, and put on a vitamin E and C surem after.. It's been 2 months maybe 3 since and I have seen progress.. My scars filled in slightly .. But I also think it may have caused me to break out , because I was not completely acne free when I did so.. So be a little cautious if you have active acne ..just keep at it .. Maybe gradually go bigger every month or so .. Hope this helped .. Good luck:)

i did it with a 1.5mm and the next day my skin right now is little pink not even alot i thought it would be still red and swollen like yesterday , put copper peptide on and thats it
so am i doing something wrong o.o
Have you been rolling in different directions as well.. Sounds like you are doing things right.. It just takes time to see results.. Mine took a little over a month until I saw results .. And every body is different, and their body's and skin reacts differently .. And an important thing is to make sure you are not rolling too much .. Which may irritate more than help.. Good luck.. Patience is the key:)
can you start using glycolic acid daily still ? after the dermaroll session
NO! This is a horrible idea. I have seen a post where somebody tried glycolic acid peel right after he/she did a dermaroller session. That person claimed that scars were vanishing, but never posted pictures, which I find it dubious. I have tried DR+salicylic acid peel in the past, and I saw no benefits of using peel afterward. Peeling in general is not a good tool to utilize for pitted acne scars based on my experience. I know some dermatologists love to use CROSS or TCA peels for acne scars, but I have not seen a single success story yet with CROSS for ice pick scars.
As far as bleeding goes, you probably do not exert enough force. A little bit of bleeding is expected.
