Has anybody tried at-home dermarolling/microneedling to improve complexion especially acne scars and aging skin? Does it work?

How long does this shit take to work?
Brayden Johnson
nigger there's studies about this on pubmed, Jow Forums cannot provide you with any answers
Jace Fisher
I just thought there'd be folks here who had tried it for some time and give their firsthand opinions on it.
Tyler Gutierrez
Tried it and haven't gotten any results. I think that, to get good results, you would need to get it done professionally. Where they numb your face and stick needles 1mm into your skin.
Isaac Diaz
You can do up to 1.5mm at home. Also numbing creams are available at drug stores. "professional" sessions are ridiculously overpriced for the tools and work they put in.
Jeremiah Martin
The deeper the needles the longer it takes to heal the better the result.
I microneedled for a long time and got rid of most of my small acne scars, I'll need laser treatment for the few deep ones I have left though.
The golden rule: always disinfect it with alcohol before use, if you breakout/get infected it's worthless
Colton Evans
I purchased an inexpensive dermaroller and have used it about once a month for the past year or so. My ice pick scars haven’t fucking budged, but over time I think it has helped a bit with my skin’s texture and fine lines. There’s really no real downsides and there are enough people who report noticeable results that it’s worth trying if you think it might help.
David Rodriguez
Have any anons ITT had success in treating atrophic scars (boxcar, ice pick, etc)?
Leo Miller
Had it done by a doctor with anaesthetic cream because she put her full bodyweight into my face when she did it (I was lying down). This was with the proper roller not the one with microneedles.
Did absolutely fuck all. 3 sessions of it and 0 results.
Had laser treatment done on Harley street. Did nothing.
Had dermapen done with PRP injections - did nothing.
Adam Thompson
Do you use a roller or an automatic pen? What length?
William Perez
Your scarring must be quite severe then?
Carter Robinson
You need to do it on only one half of your face for awhile and then compare. Anything else is as good as placebo.
Gabriel Walker
Cameras exist user. Chances are there's a good one in your phone.
Kayden Mitchell
Maybe your skin is already perfect?
Robert Gomez
What kind of skin condition are you treating for?
Jonathan Jones
Work in a derm office, a dude came in to get microneedled, he looks tons better. Still has some scarring, but he cleaned up his diet, changes his razor, and got a skin care regimen, and between that and the microneedling he looks way better. He's standing upright and actually making eye contact now. Shit costs like $300/sesh though.
Chase Murphy
I just want baby smooth skin man.
Adrian Miller
Can you draw a picture of before and after in paint?
Anthony Morales
You can buy the dermapen for $50 and do it at home. $5 if you go with the roller. Derm offices and aesthetician clinics are commiting daylight robbery at those prices they are charging.

Nathaniel Russell
Dermaroller or dermapen which to get?
Gavin Garcia
It helps you grow a beard faster that's for sure. Derma roll my face once a week while using minoxidil. It causes the skin to produce collagen which causes facial hair to grow and thicken..
Pic related is scars from back acne from my teens. Like fucking craters. Not really having success with 0.5mm but it does make them more flush with my normal skin and less deep.
Jack Diaz
0.5mm is way too shallow for your back skin which is much thicker bro. People even use 1mm in their faces. Also have you considered getting a dermapen? You can adjust the length on the fly so you win need to buy multiple rollers.
Michael Russell
Do you have atrophic acne scars in your face too or is it just on your back?
Jacob Hill
Derma rolling ages your skin prematurely.
You're creating small amounts of scar tissue every time you use it, Your skin won't perfectly heal unless you're a newborn.
Your skin make look more flush and fuller in the near term but over the course of a few years you'll look older than if you hadn't done it at all.
Enjoy!
Zachary Davis
Lmao you don't even know what you're taking about faggot. Microneedling only punctures the epidermis and leaves the dermis untouched so scarring is impossible. How about you read the dozens of studies on pubmed before coming off as an idiot.
Gabriel Jones
this is basically true plus it doesn't work
Xavier Davis
you sound emotionally triggered...
idk dude microneedling sounds like snake oil. if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
regardless, post your studies.
Ethan Gutierrez
Jose Carter
Yeah you're right, it doesn't work even though it's the same principle as laser surgery (collagen induction therapy). Fucking moron.
James Hughes
Study this.
*grabs dick*
Leo Butler
Derma rollers are so cheap though. What's the disposal time on a derma pen?
Just my back, or more specifically my shoulder blades. I lucked out, no acne scaring on face. Maybe because the skin on my back is thicker and the cystic acne was super deep as well.

why don't you just do a search yourself. the studies literally say the opposite of what you wrote

How effective are light therapy, infrared and radio frequency treatments? Esp the at home treatment with the meme machines
Daniel Brooks
>pubmed studies on some bogpilling quackery
Ryan Campbell
The derma pen accepts disposable needle cartridges that can be replaced after single use or 3-4 uses. They cost a couple of bucks for a dozen.
Sebastian Torres
Sebastian Thompson
sounds like its a vector for really shitty infections
Jordan Garcia
do you know where you are?
Noah Walker
if i buy a new one from amazon, should i still sanitize it?
how do i sanitize it, dip it in rubbing alcohol?
Ryder Green
There are a billion videos on youtube on how to do it. Every single step from sanitization to how to roll your face and what to apply. This isn't some closely guarded cult secret.
Ayden Cooper
Yes Jow Forums.
Logan Jenkins
Those are quack treatments. The whole point about collagen induction is causing controlled micro wounds to your skin so it is triggered into repairing itself properly. That's what laser and microneedling do.
Christian Brown
What I want to know is if they can somehow fix KP.
Luis Mitchell
What's KP?
Jordan Sanders
keratosis pilaris
Gabriel Gutierrez
Microneedling mimics laser which has been successful in KP treatment. No harm giving it a try. I've seen posts on reddit skincareaddiction where people tried it for that purpose.
Brayden Collins
Retin A and collagen supplements is far better and less primitive than this shit
Joseph Edwards
That's the most ignorant shit I've read. Collagen is just protein folded in a certain way. You eat collagen, it gets digested into amino acids. Retin A works by exfoliating and peeling the skin but does nothing to reshape the scars.

Just use fucking makeup if you want your face to look perfect.
You idiots put a ton of unnecessary stress on your face.
All you need, fucking all you need
>only water
>quality sleep
>no drugs
>daily cleanser
>daily moisturizer
>daily suncream
If you want some peeling use an ALA or BHA based one if you want to be super good you TCA.
If you have shitface you are fucker and should go to an actual dermatologist who can help you much better with lazer.
Wyatt Scott
Where do I start with makeup if I'm a guy?

I tried it once a week to only one side of my face for a period of six months.
No discernable difference. Results might be different if you have it professionally done
Samuel Thompson
>Just use fucking makeup if you want your face to look perfect.
you mean if you want people to think youre a faggot. Seriously, what nornal man would wear makeup? Is this some new age trans androgynous shit?
Makeup is bad for your skin as well.
Andrew Clark
are there any risks to microneedling?
If there arent I might as well try it - why not?
Christopher Wilson
>Can you draw a picture of before and after in paint?
Sure.
James Nguyen
this is the best picture in the world
u have moar?
Jaxson Jackson
It's very safe. All you have to do is to make sure you soak your needles in alcohol.
Evan Hall
What length of needle did you use? Did you get redness akin to sunburn right after?
Thomas Price

might as well try homeopathy rofl
