Dermarolling / Microneedling / Can I use dermaroller and single needle on upper arms if I have excessive fat?

Hi Sarah,
I am new to the forum and owndoc and I would like to thank you for creating such a comprehensive website that gives realistic hope! I am planning to buy 1.5 dermaroller and single needles for my stretch marks. I have a lot of them- on upper arms, underarms, shoulder, chest, stomach and upper region of my thighs! The ones underneath my upper arms are very deep and look like elongated pits instead of pink/purplish stretch marks I have on other areas of my body.

I know that single needle is not suggested for upper arms but can I use them if I have excessive fat there? I am suffering from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and I have had rapid weight gain because of it. Currently I am trying to reduce my weight which leads to my second question: Would using dermaroller prevent new stretch marks?

Finally, could you please tell me what do you suggest I should buy from owndoc that would work for different types of stretch marks and could I use a dermastamp in areas that are too time consuming to treat with a single-needle? And the final finally! Should I be using the the needle/stamp in the same session as the dermaroller or should I space it out by a couple of days?

Sorry, I know these are too many questions but I would really appreciate any suggestions and answers. Thanks a lot!
