Read about Dermaroller in Grazia & Hello magazines.
The purpose of medical skin needling is to slightly traumatise the skin to encourage new collagen and elastin production. This is achieved using a roller fitted with very fine stainless steel needles which is gently rolled over the skin to create fine puncture marks in the living dermis layer. This minor trauma generates new skin cells so the skin repairs itself and becomes thicker, plumper and more youthful. A topical anaesthetic cream is applied prior to treatment. A local anaesthetic can be used when treating areas around the mouth. What is a Dermaroller? Dermaroller is a sterile medical device and can only be used by a qualified trained professional. It is designed for one off use by each individual patient. Multiple sessions will require a new roller each time. Although primarily used on the face. Dermaroller can be used on the neck, décolleté lines, backs of hands, acne scars and stretch marks. Generally, all types of skin can be treated. It normally takes six weeks to achieve results. The treatment of acne scars and stretch marks may involve several sessions which are six weeks apart. Once treatment is completed and to maintain long-term success, it is advisable to repeat treatment every 6 - 12 months or as necessary. Before & After Pictures (forehead & Lines & wrinkles)

Ageing & sun damaged skin/lines & wrinkles Dermaroller in Combination with Skin Care Products Dermaroller treatment is always used in combination with Dermaroller's own skin care products whose cost is included in treatment fees. Cosmetic Home Roller Dermaroller offers a roller for home use only. This is generally only used for stretch marks and scarring. The needles are much shorter than the medical roller. It is designed only to penetrate the outermost epidermis layer of skin and cannot reach the living dermis layer underneath. It is designed to purely facilitate the infiltration of skin care products.
