» Dermal Skin Roller Boosts Collagen & Improves Skin
The skin roller treatment creates thousands of tiny punctures in the skin that open micro-channels that close within just a few hours after the application. This provides just enough time for new collagen structures to form within the skin's lower layers, but short enough to ensure that you can resume your normal schedule. The result is the build-up of collagen over a period of four to eight weeks, which improves the skin's appearance.
A typical skin roller can come with different needle depths, ranging from 0.2 and 0.5 millimeters to more professional-level depths such as 1.0-2.0 mm. When using a needle up to 1.0mm, there is no pain and no need for a numbing cream, although deeper needle rollers may require a numbing cream. The needle treatment may cause redness and swelling for a day, but most people have not reported any real discomfort.
