Derma roller success?

I was reading about using a derma roller on another thread and it peaked my interest. I read about these a while back before I was enligtened by Immortal. Has anyone used these with any success? If so, what size and what was your routine?

Thanks

Yes i have experienced such success :]
very goddamn slow process though. And it would
be a thing to note that being sad slows down skin
tissue formation

Hmmm. How slow? How often do you roll? For how long? what size roller? And do you follow up with any kind of oils or anything?

Im 20 years old. I use a 1.5 roller and i roll one spot 10 to 15 times :]
i use vitamin a,c,d,e, and it seems to have worked fine
i roll once every 3 weeks or so and ive done it for 4 months

1.5mm? Is this a safe length? I use a .75mm roller ... maybe I should upgrade? I know that 1.5 is common for rolling the face but I thought anything > 1 is taking a risk for the scalp?

You guys;

how are these rollers?

My roller is the NEW SPA brand and it is of quality. Anyone want to chime in on the ideal size of the needle? I am thinking of going from .75 to 1mm.

Wouldn't the derma needle be good to use instead of a brush with FEROX method ?

Very interesting question! I also would like to know if people regrew hair with a derma roller. Can anybody report his experiences with that "tool" ?

when they use concurrently with topicals, yes, but as a stand alone ive never seen any reports.

And what topicals?

What topicals did he use?

Minoxidil, so his skin is going to age, and the effect of new hair growth with the poison is quiet short.
So he has to add Finasteride soon also, and combine all the drug elements.

It would be interesting without the use of minoxidil. When I was around 23 I started minox 1x a day and it was like a miracle drug for the first 2 years. Then the effectiveness wore off. 5 years later it didn't do anything for me. At the time and now I don't think there were any side effects, although it's possible I'm just not aware of them. My point is his success could just be due to minoxidil.

I prefer to keep treatments as natural as possible going forward. Looking into derma rolling and then using sage's formula the day after.

I highly suggest using a dermastamp instead of a roller. The roller creates a coned out hole in your head while a stamp makes a nice clean cylindrical hole for faster healing and not as much damage. However, I have been using it for months now just on my hairline with no success.
