Derma-Rolling For Boxcar Scarring

[riseagainstacne 1]

i have mild boxcar and red scares on my cheeks. I been reading a lot about Dermarolling and thought i would give it a shot since i have a lot of time on my hands. I think I'm going to start off with the 1.5mm.

so pretty much I'm asking:

Where should i buy my dermaroller from?

what Topical gels, cleansers, lotions should i use? (before and after)

what Vitamins should i be taking while i do this?

the Forums were seriously giving me a headache reading through all of them.

i just need simple answers to these questions

i would appreciate it A LOT

I have the same question. I have some mild to moderate boxscars and was looking into dermarolling.

I am so sad about it though

Hi both, this site http://dermaroller.owndoc.com/dermaroller-instructions.pdf offers some very detailed information which should answer all of your questions.

Has anyone ever used this one?

i think its nice since to comes with the dermaroller, vitamin rich cream,

Multivitamins tablets and some anti bacterial whips its a whole great little package

of goodies!! and i had no idea, derma-rolling was on the Rachael Ray show! lol

[riseagainstacne 1]

holy crap, thanks. lol i guess i'll just have to pay more money then i expected to get a good-quality product.

sadly, that's how everything works. is there any links you can send me that comes with the whole package?

but that's NOT a scam?

i actually prefer derma stamp over roller. rollers hurt like hell.

Where should i buy my dermaroller from? - I recommend using a derma stamp instead. Easier to use, less chance of complications. I buy mine from jglobalsales.

what Topical gels, cleansers, lotions should i use? (before and after) - Vitamin C and Terproline Professional are good choices. Don't cleanse your face for a few days after rolling.

what Vitamins should i be taking while i do this? - Vitamin C is a must and another multi vitamin made specifically for skin health. I take Wellman's Skin Technology.

do you think derma stamp would be better for boxcar scares? i have some on the

left side of my cheek. i also have red scares but i can deal with those. i just

really want to make my boxcar scarring less noticeable. /:

It's the same thing really, I just prefer derma stamp. Much easier to use, the needles are going straight in and out, with dermaroller it goes in at an angle.

I had many boxcar scars also on the left side of my cheek, most of them are either gone or extremely faint. Use a 1.5mm stamp on your cheek, 1.0mm on your temple since the skin is thinner there.

Do you know if Derma Roll + Retin-a will help reduce or even get rid of shallow boxcar scars like mine? Here are the photos

Thanks,

I've got a set of dermarolls and the ointments necessary for use, but I've yet to use it. I would highly recommend purchasing from http://owndoc.com/support/ there.

Sarah Vaughter is extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and isn't at all pushy about her product. I read a lot of her stuff over the years, but still haven't started my dermarolling for my own stretch marks. I plan to start soon, but I have some things to take care of before I begin. I plan to take before/after pictures.

Read up on her site, and if you have any more questions, ask. From what I gather so far, dermarolling combined with either cocoa butter, AHA or retin-a may actually help reduce scarring and stretch marks.
