Micro Needle Acne Scars Treatment

My Overview

Hi, guys, it's me, Joanna! This time I am sharing my experience about micro needle known as derma roller treatment.

I am interested in discovering something new that would help me to improve things in my daily life.

I've chosen to try this kind of treatment because many people have proven and their condition is more critical than mine. 

I was inspired by the YouTube bloggers who tried this kind of treatment they are also into Oratine medication which I myself been through and treated Hormonal Acne. 

I discussed this issue in my previous article last November titled  My Acne story, how I get rid of it! .Which is about treating my hormonal acne using the Oration Medication.

(For those new readers who haven't seen please check, this is related in this article)

Actually, I've been thinking twice if I should do the treatment the reason is I am afraid that it might cause more damage to my skin (when I know that I treated already my acne and my skin is clear) but somehow scars are there cause of popping up that big deep acne while in medication

When I look at myself on the mirror and see those scars on my face it makes me feel awkward and made into the point and talk to myself again "I treated my acne but still, their shadows are still there that reminds me of being insecure to have a good skin" I felt something is not right something I should complete to make myself more satisfied.

Before trying micro needling, first, I did a lot of research about this kind of treatment.  I've watched many reviews on how to do it, is it really working and I made survey about every person who got improvement and most of them I saw gorgeous effect.

But guys I am not encouraging you to do the same. You know yourself, try to observe your skin if you think your skin is ok then you don't have to do anything just maintain your skincare routine… and please just don't do the treatment without enough research. You have to be aware and more knowledgeable on how to do the treatment because there are some important process on how to make it like hygiene for the tools and on your skin, how to position the tools, what derma roller you have to use, how much pressure you have to put when rolling the needles and etc.  

(I will try to elaborate what I’ve done that can help you too!)

Checked what kind of Derma roller should use because I found out that there are many sizes of needles and those sizes have different significant benefits to the skin.

I made a chart with smiley bellow so you can check what size of derma rollers you need and their benefits.

(These are the sizes available for derma roller)

Reminder that more than 1.0mm sizes of needles are not applicable to do treatment at home because their needles are too big and it is dangerous to use unless you are well trained to do the treatment.

My skin condition I want to improve is my acne scars and others are extra benefits on my skin. 

I am using a derma roller with needle sizes of 0.5mm for my face. You can see on the chart that the size of the needles I've chosen has more benefits than the others and it wasn't painful when I do the treatment. The needle sizes are smaller than the others except 0.2mm.

Use any brand of alcohol with 70% solution and must have a 99.9% germs killer

Clean spray bottle or small container 

(If you want to use container it should be with cover. I prefer spray bottle so you could just spray on the derma roller to disinfect, while the container, it has to fill and dip the head of the derma roller then after dump the used alcohol)

Derma Roller (0.5mm)

(I used this product as it has cover and a container which I can keep properly the cover wasn't included in the picture but it has its own transparent head cover. Important note that you have to change your derma roller after a few usages, you have to buy another one and throw the old derma roller as it’s not advisable to use it for a long time)

Serum I used OZ Naturals Vitamin C Serum for my face

 Why I choose OZ Naturals Vitamin C Serum?

It is important to use a natural skin care product that won’t harm your skin. Since the treatment procedure is making small holes on your skin those holes will be the passages of skin care product that will absorb directly each time you apply onto your skin it is important to choose a best and natural product help your skin rejuvenate. Make sure you only use one product, check the label. Try first on a small area of your skin and check if what’s the reaction on your skin is.

I have chosen OZ natural because it is a very natural cold process and for me it was really effective.

I am in love with this product I tried to search on the internet what the best Vitamin C serum is. Well, this product always one of the top 5 best serum and proven by many users and also by me.

As you can see on the picture I’ve shown their tagline is "The most effective natural skin care product on the planet!" it’s true  really does its job I am not paid to advertise this product but I wanted to share that it is effective on me and other users so it might help you as well. 

(I include below information that state in their product so you will have Idea why is it really give good effect)

How Do I Do My Micro Needle Treatment!

Disinfect the Derma Roller

Using the spray bottle pour alcohol and spray on the derma roller. You can use small container pour the alcohol and dip the derma roller for a few minutes and raise it and let the derma roller air dry for an hour.

Clean Face

Meanwhile, wipe out all makeup with your make up remover and after that gently wash your face with your favourite facial wash/soap raise it with look warm water and dry with clean towel or tissue. Make sure that your face is very clear no make-up left. Don't apply any product after washing your face. Also, you have to make sure that your hands are clean and disinfected pour alcohol on your hand and rub it on to be safe before the next procedure.

For rolling treatment divide your face into four parts.

A. The surface of the Chin - I start on a surface as my warm-up, so I wouldn't feel much the needles when I proceed to roll to another surface of my skin.

B. The surface of the Right Face - The second a surface which I work on after my chin.

C. The surface of the Left Face- After the right a surface of my face continues in this area to balance the warmth of the treatment.

D. Surface of the Forehead - This is the last part I work on because is not easy to handle the pain and makes my eyes in tears.

Follow those rolling point line I made below it is the proper ways on how to do the treatment and have a good result on the skin.

(If you can't handle the pain just put only light pressure on rolling and when you used to it add a little more pressure.)

                                                         

                                                            1st Point Line

Work on Surface A, start from lower point roll towards upper point and roll back to the lower point where you start rolling, roll it 4 times (in and out) in the same direction. It should end at your starting point, then pause and you could move to the next area on the same surface you working on and start rolling again in the same procedure. (Start rolling again from lower point roll towards upper point and back to the lower point). 

Repeat the process until you finish the surface which you are working on then you can proceed to 2nd rolling point line in the same surface you were working at. 

2nd Point Line

From right point roll towards left point and roll back to right point. Do the same technique which I mention above, roll it 4 times in and out in the same direction it should end where you start rolling before moving to the next area.

Repeat the process until you finish the surface which you are working at then you can proceed to 3rd rolling point line in the same surface of your face you were working at. 

3rd Point Line

From lower right point roll slanting way towards upper left point and roll slanting back to the lower right point. Do the same technique which I mention in the 1st Point Line, roll it 4 times in and out in the same direction, it should end where you start rolling before moving to the next area.

Repeat the process until you finish the surface which you are working at then you can proceed to 4th rolling point line at the same surface of your face you were working at. 

4th Point Line

This time you will start from lower left point roll slanting way towards upper right point and roll slanting back to lower left point. Do the same technique which I mention in the 1st Point Line, roll it 4 times in and out in the same direction it should end where you start rolling before moving to the next area.

Repeat the process until you finish the the surface which you are working on.

(You can feel the warmth of your face while doing the treatment finishes each surface before moving on to another surface of your face.)

When it’s done you can move onto other surfaces of your face which is Surface B remember the technique and do the same procedure from 1st to 4th point line on so onto the other Surface C. and D. which is the most painful area be gentle as this area made me tears in pain. 

Don't forget to apply the serum after the treatment finds a perfect serum for your skin.

Do the treatment one or twice a week in the first month and make it less in the 2nd month until you see an effect on your skin. Don't expect improvement in the first usage you can see the improvement as time goes by continue doing the treatment and enjoy the good effect on your skin.

I’ll be honest with you it feels pain on first time I do the treatment and sometimes I see little blood spots  in some area where I do the treatment because of the needles but don’t worry slowly you could see the changes.
