Maybe you don\u2019t want to go for an expensive dermal filler or facial lift surgery<\/a>. But you still need something more aggressive than your face cream to tone your skin and get rid of scars or fine lines on your face. I recommend a dermal roller.<\/p>\n

This is handheld device with hundreds of tiny needles embedded on a rolling head. You use it by rolling the needled head around your face.<\/p>\n

Ouch!<\/em><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t worry, a dermal roller is rarely painful. It feels like tiny prickling sensations that leave your face red for just a few minutes.<\/p>\n

The level of discomfort varies with needle size. The smallest is usually 0.25mm and is ideal for those with sensitive skin. Most needles are 0.5mm long. They are comfortable to use and can treat small to mild imperfections on the face. There are also 1mm needles that are a bit more uncomfortable but show more drastic results. They are great for large acne scars, small wrinkles and dry skin.<\/p>\n

Beyond 1mm, you probably need to get the rolling done by a dermatologist. It requires a lot more care because there will be a bit of bleeding involved. It\u2019s also fairly painful. But the benefits are worth it.<\/p>\n

So why do you need to \u2018torture\u2019 your face?<\/p>\n

A derma roller has huge benefits. It\u2019s the next best thing to getting a facial lift. It can be used to treat just about any skin problem from acne scarring to dull skin to fine lines and wrinkles.<\/p>\n

It works by creating hundreds of tiny punctures on your face. Your skin perceives these micro-punctures as wounds. It responds by increasing blood flow to the area and increasing collagen production to quickly heal the skin.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s exactly the response you are looking for.<\/p>\n

With increased collagen and blood flow, your face appears smoother, fuller and brighter. As new skin regenerates, it gets rid of acne scars, small imperfections and fine lines.<\/p>\n

Derma rollers also allow facial products to penetrate deeper into the skin. In some cases you can get twice or thrice the amount of product absorbed.<\/p>\n

But don\u2019t just apply any product after using a derma roller (remember your skin is bruised and tender); look for serums designed specifically for application after derma roller.<\/p>\n

Derma Roller Serum<\/h2>\n

The short period after using a derma roller is prime time for facial products. The skin is more exposed and anything that you apply on it, whether good or bad, will go deeper. You need to maximize the benefits of the derma roller.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why it\u2019s very important to choose the right serum after derma roller. Look for a serum that is formulated specifically for use with a derma roller. Such serums will usually be more gentle and very rich in ingredients that benefit the skin.<\/p>\n

One common ingredient in derma roller serums is hyaluronic acid. It enhances collagen production for even more skin-smoothening benefits. Many serums also contain Vitamin C<\/a> which is an important anti-aging ingredient.<\/p>\n

A good serum should also contain moisturising ingredients that penetrate deep into your skin to make it softer and brighter.<\/p>\n

Always do a patch test before using a derma roller serum especially if you have sensitive skin. If you are not going to use a derma roller serum, I recommend natural oils which are unlikely to cause a reaction (but still do a patch test first).<\/p>\n

If you are ready to get started, here are the best derma rollers we’ve found online on the UK market. We have also picked the best serums to use after a derma roller.<\/p>\n
