What a Derma Roller Treatment Has in Store For You?
Written by Cameron wieght
Wrinkling and scarring are just two of the most common skin problems that a number of people encounter as they age. While these are considered to be natural manifestations of the process of getting older, their presence can also greatly diminish one's confidence. Thus, beauty products that offer effective solutions to issues are in very high demand, especially if they are inexpensive and effective.
Thus the birth of the Derma Roller also known as Micro Channeling.
What is it?
A small drum with a cylindrical shape studded with surgical stainless steel or titanium fine needles. This medical device is rapidly gaining momentum in the skin care industry today. Used for the process of micro needling, which involves breaking down old scar tissues and stimulating skin cells, this breakthrough provides hope and promise for those who are aiming to achieve a better skin conditions especially as it involves scarring and acne issues.
How does it work?
The head has fine needles and depending on the type of procedure number from 75 to 1080. They compose a dermal roller that pierces the skin at a certain angle so that they effectively catalyze collagen and elastin production. In addition to the collagen synthesis trigger, this device also creates micro-channels as it goes through its needling procedure. Such channels aid in improving the absorption of active ingredients into the skin.
With the improvement of the absorption of such ingredients deeper into the skin, the efficacy of their function is greatly enhanced.
How does it differ from other skin rejuvenation treatments?
Primarily, it is non-ablative and minimally invasive. This means that it is able to stimulate the formation of new tissues with the skin remaining intact. Compared to other intrusive devices, this does not damage the skin to the point of having a prolonged and painful healing process.
What are its specific effects on the skin?

It helps to improve the texture of the skinr
It appears to provide effects on hyper-pigmentation and hypo-pigmentationr
It greatly improves the look of acne scars and other possible skin ailmentsr
It efficiently stimulates the production of new collagen fibersr

Are there any restrictions for its usage?
Since this device does not utilize thermal heat (unlike Lasers and IPL), it is completely safe to use on different types of skin and various tones or skin colors. One can be assured that there are virtually no risks of developing any sorts of post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation.
Will there be any down time after this kind of treatment?
It should be noted that the inflammatory reaction should be extremely short and does rapidly fade in a matter of hours. One can reduce the expected visible redness by applying peptides, healing minerals, or hyaluronic acid after the procedure has been performed. A good Stem Cell Serum is also recommended.
On a general note, a derma roller can deliver a lot of the same outcomes of lasers and other ablative treatments do but only for a fraction of the cost of those methods and very quick visible results. Not only is it very effective but it is also very safe.
