How does it work?
It works by elevating the development of collagen in the skin, which we tend to lose as we get older. It does this by penetrating the skin with the small micro-needles in the roller, they are small enough so you just sense a tickle but concentrated enough to trigger the nerve endings that tell the skin to produce collagen. This fresh layer will then thicken your skin, and take out all the imperfections.
For home use, you can use any size you like as long as it's above or equivalent to 1.5mm, but as a personal note I would tell you to choose the smallest possible needle (0.5 or less) for starters, and then work your way up if you feel the need to.equivalent to 1.5mm, but as a personal note I would suggest you to choose the smallest possible needle (0.5 or less) to start with, and then work your way up when you need to. Usually clinical sized needles necessitate some numbing of the skin, otherwise if would be sore a bit. That is why clinics use the bigger ones, but you can still see immense results at home with your smaller safer, needle if you carry on the discourse as specified.
Will this work for me?
If you have a skin imperfections, yes, the dermaroller will help, this includes stretch marks, acne scars, ice pick scars, burns, as well as wrinkles and cellulite.

Don't get caught up with all the various contrary information out there. Derma rollers are uncomplicated to use. Here are some clear cut rules to remember which should take the hassle out of these terrific little devices.
Don't buy or use a needle length which is too long - You might think that the longer the needle the better the result. While this may be marginally true, if the needle is too long, you won't want to use it because it'll be too painful.
Moisturize - a number of people use a Dermaroller without applying any type of moisturizer or skincare cream. You'll be happier if you do because you will realize better results more quickly by using a moisturizer.
Don't Share your Dermaroller - It's simply not hygienic.
Take care of your Dermaroller - The needles on them can be quite fragile. Don't drop it, cleanse it at least once a week, and lay it on its side after each use. This will extend the life of your derma roller.
Don't Roll too much - Just a few rolls every day is ample to get the skin working and producing collagen. Don't over roll, there is no need. Results can be seen after 1 week. Be patient, your skin didn’t get in this position overnight, and it won’t be overnight before you have the look you want.
