Interested in rolling for acne scars.
« on: July 29, 2013, 12:30:00 PM »
Hello!

I am a 25 year old male with mild to medium rolling acne scars on my cheeks.  I have been through several lasers and havent seen the results I want and I am interested in trying dermarolling.  What size needles should I try and how often? Once a month?  Is there a noobie guide to dermarolling? 

Thanks!

I suggest a regular 1.5 mm dermaroller and a 1.5 mm dermastamp with 35 needles. Use them during the same session (every three weeks). First stamp the scars then roll the entire area.
 
If you have lots of scars, stamp just the scars of one cheek and then roll the entire cheek. When it heals, treat the other cheek in the same way.
 
If you really have the rolling type of acne scars and you get no results in six months with dermaneedling, consider buying our suction pump.
 
Dermarolling instructions:

If you have just a few scars and apart from the scars the overall skin texture is good, buy just the dermastamp and not the dermaroller.
