Derma Roller
€10.00
A Derma Roller is a skin care device used to help rejuvenate the skin, treat acne scarring, and reduce signs of aging.
How it Works
When the Dermaroller is rolled over the skin, the small, fine needles on the roller puncture the skin.
When the skin is punctured, this creates a controlled skin injury. It does not cause actual damage to the outer layer of skin. The needles help to break down any scar tissue.
The controlled injuries to the skin lead to superficial bleeding. This triggers the body’s wound healing response, and the following occurs:
- the skin releases substances that stimulate growth
- new blood vessels form in the skin
- the skin starts to make more collagen
Over the next 5 days, the collagen produced by the body is deposited in the area of treated skin. This helps the skin to become firmer and may reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles.

These sections are:

- top left of forehead and cheek
- right under eye and lower cheek
- left under eye and lower cheek
- around the mouth
After using the Derma Roller, a person can apply serums or moisturisers to their skin. The treatment is often used as a delivery system to maximize the effects of these lotions.
PLEASE NOTE:
You should avoid a Derma Roller if you have a history of blood-clotting problems, or are using accutane or other medical treatments.
Derma Rollers should not be used on areas of skin that have eczema, sunburn, or cold sores. Anywhere there are moles, skin inflammation, or rosacea should also be avoided.
