How can Dermaroller effectively remove Acne Scars?

December 1st, 2010

Acne can be controlled and treated using many skin care products but did you ever think of a product to remove the acne scars that are left behind? Not to worry, Dermaroller® is here to treat those nasty scars. Scars are formed due to loss/ damage of facial tissue and make it more visible when there is a lack of collagen in your skin.

For the benefit of every one let me explain what Dermaroller® is. As a recognised medical device, Dermaroller® comprises of microscopic needle columns. It is a hand-held device, which can be used to roll over the dermis to cause strategic damage to the skin. This strategic damage stimulates a repair process which leads to form new collagen and improves the blood supply of your skin. The result being improved skin texture and volume.

Dermaroller® includes different needle sizes depending on the treatment requirement; it ranges from 0.25mm – 3.0mm.  Your cosmetic physician would assess your skin and select the best needle size to treat your skin. However keep in mind that the maximum needle length that is recommended for facial treatment is 1.5 mm.

The treatment follows few easy steps. Your cosmetic physician would cleans your skin and apply local anaesthetic cream for comfort. The Dermaroller® is then applied to your dermis twice in 6 directions. Once the procedure ends your skin would look sunburnt with tiny areas of pinpoint bleeding. This feeling will settle within the first 2 – 3 hours. Your cosmetic physician would apply Chiroxy cream to your skin to improve healing.
