Derma Roller – How Does It Work?
The Derma roller is a great new device which has the amazing ability to naturally stimulate collagen production without damaging the skin by making the skin to believe that it is damaged even though it is not and so it starts to heal itself and will continue to heal until the treatment is stopped. This means that so long as the treatment is carried out regularly, your skin will heal itself to a cosmetic level. Skin needling has a lot of beneficial results:
* Hair loss reduction
* Anti Ageing
* Anti Wrinkle
* Cellulite Removal
* Scar Treatment
* Stretch Mark Treatment
* Hyper Pigmentation Treatment
The Derma roller needles are generally only 1mm long so giving you a tickling sensation when used. However, other sizes do exsist with the longer sizes such as 2mm upto about 5mm being used by professionals using numbing cream and more vigorous treatments with longer breaks in between treatments whereas using a smaller needle length at home can be done up to five times a week with two days rest.
It is not widely known, however the majority of the active ingredients in skin care products stays on top of your skin and are only partially absorbed. The Derma roller has 192 surgical steel micro-needles which are able to part the pores of the epidermis without damaging it. After approximately one hour the pores close again, but during that time, our skin is better able to benefit from skin creams and lotions.
The skin reacts to any injury by triggering the healing process to seal up the affected area, but it generally only heals enough to keep you healthy. By constantly triggering the healing process by using a Derma-roller to represent an injury to be repaired, you encourage your body to continue healing to a cosmetic level.
