Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.) – PRP Microneedling / Dermaroller
What is Derma Rolling?
Derma Rolling involves using ultra-fine needles to create micro-punctures in the skin, stimulating natural collagen production. The most popular tool, the Derma Roller, has 540 fine needles (2.5mm). Though it sounds painful, it's generally not.
How Does Derma Rolling Work?
Derma Rolling creates micro-injuries that trigger collagen-rich skin regeneration, improving tone and texture.
What Skin Conditions Can It Treat?
It treats wrinkles, acne scars, fine lines, dull skin, and hyperpigmentation. When combined with PRP, it accelerates healing and enhances results.
Does Derma Rolling Hurt?
You may feel tingling or warmth, like sunburn. Sensitive skin may feel sore. It's best to roll in the evening and follow with calming skincare—avoid makeup immediately after.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Common effects include redness or irritation. Avoid if pregnant or dealing with eczema, psoriasis, open wounds, or active acne.
Is the Micro Glow Derma Roller Safe?
Yes. It's made of medical-grade titanium and TGA-listed in Australia. Safe if used correctly and not on compromised skin.
Can I Share My Derma Roller?
No—never share for hygiene and safety reasons.
Can I Use Retinol After Derma Rolling?
No. Avoid retinol. Use hydrating, calming serums instead.
When Will My New Hair Start to Grow?
Hair growth begins gradually over a few months. Be patient—follicles grow in cycles and results will follow.
