This is my first real thread so I decided to make it pretty easy to understand and not too large.
I will be giving a easy guide on how to properly derma roll without getting infections or such.

In this thread I will be going over:
Why microneedle
Before you begin
During the microneedling
After the microneedling


Introduction
Microneedling is using a roller or stamp to create micro-injuries in the skin or scalp. You want to do this because your body then repairs the area of effect, by producing more collagen, elastin, growth factors, and new blood vessels. You will see results after a few months, so consistency and patience is key.

Why microneedle
  • Acne scars
Microneedling can remodel scar tissue and trigger new collagen
  • Anti aging
Collagen and elastin naturally decrease with age, so you can derma roll to try and prevent some of these classics signs of aging that many people despise.

Mirconeedling will help with:
softening fine lines
improving skin texture
making skin feel firmer
reducing the look of enlarged pores

  • Hyperpigmentation
It will help with reducing hyperpigmentation such as sundamage and a uneven tone.
Just like retinoids, can you also use it on the undereye, if you have thin skin or fine lines.

  • Hair growth
Wont be going over this much in my guide, but you can help stimulate hair growth with microneedling

  • Better absorption of serums
The temporary micro holes that the microneedle creates, can help your skin easier absorb serums such as topical ghk-cu.

Before you begin
First it is important that you get yourself a proper derma- roller or stamp. It should not be of cheap material, preferably titanium. Then you need to get the right size.

  • Under eye 0,25mm​
Your undereye is very delicate and thin. DONT use a larger size needle.
  • Eyebrow 0,5mm

  • Rest of the skin 0,5mm
Start with 0,5mm. After a good amount of months you can move up to 0,75mm-1mm. Though it is not needed to size up.


Now to the most important part. The actual guide on how to do it

During the microneedling
  • Before applying to face
Wash your face with water and then apply a cleanser, or spray a bit of alcohol on your face. (The most important is just to have a clean face before your session.) Make then sure to get whatever you put on your face fully off before you start rolling. Make also sure your hands is clean and everything that will touch your face during the session is clean.

Get your stamp/roller wet then use a alcohol spray on it. Let it airdry to completely dry. (VERY important that it is clean, so you don't accidentally cause infections.)

Now everything is ready to use.

  • The Microneedling
Face: Honestly pretty simple. Roll back and fourth on your face till your face has gotten around 12 rounds. (1 round is from one side to the other.) I like to go 6x horizontal and 6x vertical when applying to the face.

Undereye: On the under eye I just roll back and forth. 12x

Eyebrow: Here don't go back and forth just start from the middle and go out. Then repeat. 12x

If you feel too sore after a session, cut down on the amount of times u roll.

If you are just beginning to microneedle i recommend doing it about 2x a week.

Again cut down if you feel too sore.

After the microneedling
Apply any face, eyebrow or undereye serum now as your skin absorbs it better after a microneedling session. If you dont have any serums that you want to apply, that is fine just apply a simple moisturizer or lotion to the face. DONT apply any harsh products like retinoids or acids to your face atleast 24 hours after microneedling.
