Hi all, I've been researching about Derma rolling...I've got rolling scarring on the left side of my cheek and some ice pick scars on my nose and faint ones across my cheeks.. I bought a 1mm derma roller & 20% Vitamin C Serum Organic 60ml Vitamin E Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer Sensitive Skin Anti Aging Wrinkles & Spots. Its just one bottle I was going to use after rolling. Thought maybe this could help my scaring, I've been reading from this forum peoples success so thought I would try this...is there any advice I should take before going ahead later?

Ill take some before & after pics to shown results if any

Hello,

I have had lazer but I have found I have had the best results by needling. I started off with a 1.5mm and then moved onto 2.0mm. I was quite brutal with my rolling and my face looked horrible and I bled a lot but the results speak for themselves. The more damage you do, the better the results.

I use to needle every month and did so for about a year. I then stopped needling all together and a year later, I can see a massive difference in my face. Yes it took that long to see improvements but I am extremely happy with the results.

You cannot expect miracles but you will see an improvement.

I have an thread about my progress you can look at if you want. Sadly its now been archived but you can still have a read.

Hey poppelientje

My first derma roll went really well, my skin feels so much better, and the scarring looks slightly improved but only a touch but the improvement is there as the days go by, woke up this morning feeling really happy, but I had been getting a few spots around my scarring on my left cheek but nothing to drastic so I thought i'd ride it out...I have been taking small doses of Accutane for the last 5 years to keep my acne under control and it worked, but I stopped taking it 4 weeks ago, I thought i'd turned a corner and no longer needed it but I've got home from work today and where I have the bit of scarring there is quite a few spots built up in such a short time, i'm quite gutted about this, and think if I don't get some very soon my face will start to get worse... I'm quite gutted cause I defo think the dermarolling is a massive helpfor the scarring but if I begin to get acne coming back then i'll have to stop doing it until i'm cleared :(
