Derma rolling is a procedure that started in
dermatoglists’ clinics, but is now being made available at home. It is the process of making the skin feel a
little pain to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are nutrients that
restore skin elasticity and keep it soft and smooth. Because of this effect, derma rolling is
considered as a natural approach to skin care, compared to the application of
topical creams or undergoing invasive surgeries. A Derma roller is a handheld tool with
microneedles stuck to a rotating barrel that is rolled over the skin in the
process.
There are necessary precautions to take in using
the Derma roller at home. The Derma
roller to be used in the procedure must not be longer than 1.0mm as it could
cause intense pain. Derma rolling is
meant to be undergone with only a slight pain.
When you see blood, you have to stop derma rolling immediately and
consult your doctor. Most people apply
great pressure on derma rolling which is why they experience more pain than
necessary. Should you feel this, apply
lesser force and see how your skin reacts.
After the procedure, make sure you disinfect the
needles well to avoid irritation during your next use. If you’re new to the procedure, try not to do
it daily as this might hurt rather than help your skin. Give your skin a day or two of rest before
doing it again. Patience is a virtue and
exercising caution will be the key to achieving great results.
