[Start slowly, only one time per week. I started Dec 5, 2024. I do not use her mask, only vitamin C serum & rollers – 0.5mm for face/neck and 0.25mm for undereyes & above/below lips. I will increase use slowly.]

How often you should derma roll your face depends on the length of the needles and your skin’s sensitivity: 

Shorter needles: You can roll every other day. 

Longer needles: You should space out treatments every three to four weeks. 

0.25 mm needles: You can use them every other day. 

0.5 mm needles: You can use them 1–3 times a week, starting with less. 

1.0 mm needles: You can use them every 10–14 days. 

1.5 mm needles: You can use them once every 3–4 weeks. 

2.0 mm needles: You should avoid using them at home. 

You should also make sure your skin is completely recovered before starting another session. Overusing a derma roller can lead to redness, irritation, and swelling. 

Here are some tips for using a derma roller: 

Limit the rolling time to a maximum of 2 minutes during each session. 

After using the derma roller, apply a serum with hyaluronic acid or niacinamide to moisturize. 

Make sure there are no bent needles. 

Start with light to no pressure. 

Go back and forth in every direction. 

You can see results after 6 to 12 weeks of regular derma rolling. 

I am intrigued by this method of skincare – lymphatic facial massage. I am incorporating it in my morning powerwalks.
