Dermarolling / Microneedling / Re: Can dermarolling cause fine lines?

Thank you so much for your reply.

No I haven't been using anything that dries the skin. I did use Tretinoin as a teenager about ten years ago and unfortunately was not well informed by my dermatologist on how to use it properly. I spent several summers sunbathing on the mediterranean coast with it on my forehead. I think this has done terrible damage to my skin and I'm wondering wether the needling has brought all of it up to the surface?

I'm really worried that I've broken the collagen in my skin. Is that even possible?

I think I'm just going to have to wait and see what happens during the next few weeks. Should I go on using Infadolan?

Dermarolling / Microneedling / Can dermarolling cause fine lines?

Hi!

I am a 28 year old female. I have recently used a 1,5 mm dermastamp on my forehead in an attempt to reduce mild acne scarring and a few fine lines. I also used vitamin c serum and Infadolan. I only had one needling session, three weeks ago.
To my utter disappointement, the part of my forehead where I have used the dermastamp is now covered with tiny fine lines. Needless to say I am devastated. The surrounding skin has remained unchanged.
Is there any hope for my skin to heal? I just don't understand what has happened.

I would like to add that I have used the dermastamp on other parts of my face with no problems.

Thanks
