Choosing your dermaroller
All lengths can be used in order to increase the effectiveness of hair growth stimulating lotions. However, when you never used derma needling on the scalp before, we advise to you use the 0.3mm. The other lengths are for experienced users.

If you have not previously used a lotion before or you have changed to a different lotion, we advise not to use the dermaroller directly together with the (new) lotion. Try the lotion for two weeks and see how you react to it. Then you can add the dermaroller to your regimen.

For use on the face to stimulate beard or moustache growth it is best to choose the 0.5mm needle length.

Frequency
In studies about the effectiveness, the dermaroller was used 1x per week. So a relatively low frequency already has an effect. Our advice is that the dermaroller should be used not more than 2-3 times per week, because the skin needs time to recover after the treatment.

Application
You only need to roll the dermaroller softly across the scalp, pressure is not necessary. For proper treatment, roll in fixed patterns several times over the surface you want to treat.

The dermaroller makes the skin more permeable without damaging it. The skin recovers very quickly after use, but the skin will at that time have significantly more capacity to absorb lotions.

Caution is advised when combining a lotion with a dermaroller. Because the absorption is much stronger than normal, the lotion can cause side effects that you normally don’t have with the lotion. Think especially of scalp irritation. So keep a close eye to how your skin and body respond to it.

To prevent this as much as possible, we recommend to keep at least 12 hours between the use of the dermaroller and lotion. Since our lotions have few side effects and negligible amounts of solvents, the lotion can perhaps be applied earlier, but we advise to build it up slowly and see how your skin responds.

Cleaning
Rinse the dermaroller after each treatment under hot tap water and shake it dry. Use an alcohol concentration to disinfect it. Put the dermaroller back in the box after usage. From a hygienic point of view it is not recommunded to let others use the dermaroller.

Warning
The dermaroller should never be used when you suffer from skin diseases or skin damage. If your skin appears to be sensitive to the treatment stop using the dermaroller immediately. When you experience symptoms of the use of the dermaroller in combination with the use of topical lotions, immediately stop the use of the dermaroller.
