Hi I’m in Canada and can’t seem to find a good review on a dermal roller I found a couple and some reviews are good but then other day it’s fake and show pictures saying the needles are fake and so on. Wold you be able to point me in the right direction thanks for the video as well I like that you explained how to use.
thanks for this video. I have used Derma stamp 3 years ago (similar to Derma Roll) for probably 6 months and I got zero results. I decided to quit and then got back about a year ago after seeing few more videos about Pen. I purchased high quality Derma pen and there's a HUGE difference. Within two months my shedding stopped by 90% and by month my hair became thicker + tons of vellus hair that are becoming terminal. If roller did not work for you, give a chance to Pen, high chance it will work.
hi Steve. im using Derma stamp too. I not sure if its working or not. I want ask you what is the size of you Derma stamp ? im using 1.5mm. I use it once a week
I am not using stamp or a roller, just Pen, unfortunately stamp didn't work for me, if it works for you that great, give it some time before your judge though
The Problem with using Minoxidil is that the results are quicker and faster but it will only stay for the period you are using the minoxidil serum. its not sustinable
I tried Derma rolling (1.5) and after a bit of shedding hair came back slightly thicker (good) impressed enough to buy a pen which causes a lot less damage. Check them out
@@algarrido probably about 6 - 8 weeks before seeing the hair coming back through. Like I said it dropped out to start but the cycle started again and come back stronger. I’ve seen a fair few videos about techniques since and the rollers can rip the skin rather than puncture. The pen goes straight in and out and the depth is exact where the roller depends if you press fully down to the roller which is hard when dealing with the pain. 😵💫
Great vid, very simple and has all the info I was looking for. Been on minoxidil for ~4 months with bo progress so I’m hoping micro needling helps. Also difference is I wait until the pain/redness goes away before applying minoxidil so it doesn’t get into my circulation. Also apply it twice daily (morning/night) and use tretinoin 1hr after the last application at night.
You might be applying the minoxidil wrong if your not seeing results you should use a wooden brush to stimulate hair follicles and just rub in gently to your pores try this immediately after derma rolling and only derma roll twice a week you need to appl right after using the roller
one of my friend passed out due to sudden decrease in blood pressure, I would say just avoid minoxidil for 12 -24 hrs so that it doesn't get in the bloodstream directly.
Do not apply Minoxidil on "broken skin". No cuts (dermarolling is literally making tiny cuts), infections, nothing. Your skin needs to be healed before applying Minoxidil to avoid issues. I apply Minoxidil 12 hours after I've used dermaroller so the holes (cuts) have had time to heal quite well.
Minoxidil is absorbed far better if immediately applied after derma rolling. Some people react bad to minoxidil going systematic so start with a small amount and make sure you dont get heart palpitations or facial swelling. If everything is good you will be fine applying it immediately after derma rolling
@@cornpop7176 What I've read and heard from professionals, not just another person's opinion, is that you shouldn't apply on broken skin exactly because the risks are higher than the benefits. I'm not a medical professional though so I'm not telling anyone what's the only way. Just sharing what I've learned from multiple sources before starting my own journey.
The dermaroller you have linked in description is not the 1.5 length (or even 1.0) which you recommend in the video, it is only a 0.30mm needle length.
some tips: when showering rinse your hair in cold water, the cold water seals your pores, as opposed to hot water which we know from acne methods that it opens pores. Also be healthy, don’t use bs shampoos that are basically just detergents with good smells and no benefits, find a natural shampoo/conditioner that has natural stuff like rosemary no sulfates etc all that bad bs. I also read that milk can cause hair fall, now I’m getting nit picky bc hey all info may change your mind. Obviously don’t eat junk food and soda everyday change your food! I know this is an extra step but if we filter our water why wouldn’t we filter our shower water? You can buy shower filter, I plan to do this I’ve just been on fin and min and a natural shampoo for 2 years, now I’ll change to this plantmade kit and start using derma roller, cheers. OH ALSO CLEAN YOUR DERMA ROLLER WITH 70% alcohol, or maybe also soap and water and storage it with wrap. Update: August 25th I started derma rolling and back in fin + min, my front hairline has greatly filled in, I have a bunch of baby hairs, but it’s not thick and full of volume as I would like, I’ve been derma rolling 2x a week (0.5mm) I’m hoping by NEW YEARS I will get close to my high school hairline. I exercise weekly, drinking lots of water, and eating home cooked meals, lots of fruits and veggies, occasionally sugar eats here and there but very low. My hair gets oily around 3-4 days if I don’t shower, I try to only wash my hair 2x a week, sometimes I’ll do an extra quick rinse after applying a rosemary “hair growth” homemade jar (recipe from multiple RU-vid videos)
Another trick is to poke the roller, pressing holes into your scalp rather than rolling it, saves you pulling out hair that gets caught in the device. ;)
I read that it’s not recommended to use minoxidil immediately after derma rolling to avoid irritation from minoxidil’s inactive ingredients (alcohol, propylene glycol, etc)
I've always heard people saying it's about the minox going systemic where you get unwanted side effects that's why people leave it until the next day. Everyone is different and if you're prone to the side effects of min then apply the next day to be safer
"It doesn't hurt . . . much." I've voluntarily had hair transplant surgery *twice* and the 2nd time they even took some of my beard to fill in the crown - that was a special kind of pain that their numbing agent, which worked great on my scalp, didn't help much at all. I ain't scared of no tiny-needled dermarollers! Bring it on!
@@lion7676 yes, side of my temples has new hair and the back of my head where I was getting a bald spot has starting getting new hair growth also. Wasn't expecting much from this dermo rolling but there is new hair growth for me. I do it once every 5 days. I was afraid to try minoxidil because of the so called shedding stage. I may still use it though but for now I want to see how far this dermo rolling actually goes in terms of hair growth.
Not sure what's after happening but the gains I got has slowly reversed. I haven't done anything different. I'm going to try a 1mm derma roller and see if I can fix it again. Failing this I'll use minoxidil along with the roller. Very unfortunate as my confidence shot up before :/
The aqua blue transparent rollers with the needles are much better than the red rollers with the disc blades. The blades tend to slice and tear whereas the needles punch holes. Make sure you buy the ones where you can see actual needles running through the roller.
use a derma stamp instead.. you can choose your deapth, and it doesnt tear your scalp up because of the angles. Much less pain and recovery time as well.
@@salman13every time I put in a link it gets deleted. Google 'Derma Rollers' it and select images, you will see ones with an aqua blue transparent roller and you can see the needles through the roller, they are clearly not blades.

Pro tip find a derma stamp if possible. It stays sharp for longer. Reduces the chance of scarring significantly. And is also faster and doesnt pull out hair like roller when it rolls
I know some people that use minoxidil, and yes their hair grow faster, but the problem is you have to use minoxidil permanently, because if you stop, your hair will fall again, at least that's what they said to me
If dermarolling didnt work for you and you want to try the derma pen, then maybe it as because you didnt use the derma roll correctly. People usually dont apply the correct ammount of preasure. Everyone thinks that "slight preassure" means just roll it on your head. Some dermatologist even say that bleeding a little bit is totaly fine and for some even means that you are doing it correctly.
Thank you for the demonstration. Why do you place the words over the person showing the example of how to do it? Maybe place the words above, below, or off to the side. I will try these methods and hope for the best results. Thank you! 🤞🏻
Does it burn or feel inflamed when you use minoxidil after derma roll? Also, are we supposed to use derma roller after shower to avoid infection ? I have used Rogaine foam but is it better than minoxidil oil? Thanks for your support and I really appreciate this information on your channel ❤️
Worth noting that excessive microneeling can cause scar tissue to form. No big deal but this can be an issue if you want a hair transplant down the line.
Had this exact thought today my man, just got a derma roller but was wondering if I needed to transplant down the line (just have a little temporal recession) if it'd affect transplanted hairs etc
Don't use minoxidil unless you want to use it for LIFE. The day you stop using minoxidil your hairloss will be worse than it was. Thanks for the content
Minoxidil has downsides too. It's a medicine , even Applied only on hair it is absorbed by the organism and it can be Dangerous if you have any cardiovascular problem
@@AzamatSlowedAndReverb yeah infact i won't use It. I would personally maybe consider the derma roll , Natural oils and Also some supplements of Biotin and other vitamins for the hair strenght
I can also notice the grey hair effect from minoxidil & when you stop & belive me you will stop one day you will lose it again, it’s better for people that don’t have real problems to just dermaroll or pen once a month
Only Derma roller can cause hair thickening?? I'm on my initial stages of baldness, I have small gaps, can Derma roller help me out?? B/c I don't want to we minoxidil. If yes plzz suggest a good Derma roller that you are using.
Hi bro thank you for a great video!!! I want to ask, when is the best time to do derma Rolling? after shower? before shower? before going to sleep? in the morning? Let me know, it might helps a lot of people too! thanks! :D
I think doesn't really matter but i felt better to do dermarolling in the morning or afternoon..then at night can apply minoxidil or rosemary oil..food also plays an important part..try to eat gluten free foods..
Last week I started using derma roller(0.25mm) and rosemary oil diluted with castor x olive oil for my receding hairline it's been affecting me for a long time and Insecuring i really hope I'll see some changes
The recommended depth according to studies is 1.5mm but 1.0mm is okay too. The depth you're using will do nothing for your hairline. 0.25mm is too shallow.
Very useful video! Is this that after you have dermarolled for 1 year you have a permanent solution for your hair loss, or do you constantly need to dermaroll in order to let the hair growth?
Hi, I see everybody who is showing how to use dermaroller is not mentioning moles on skin. Is it a problem if you go with dermaroller across the mole on your head?
I think 2 times a week really improves results, but people should be careful to do it right. Dermarolling too often and too harsh can be worse than not derma rolling at all. If after some time people are confident with the rate of derma rolling, they can increase the rate, but doing it carefully :)
I’m doing the same thing but instead of .5 I’m using .25 and I’m using minox twice a day it’s helping a lot with my beard but my temples are slowly growing
Do it max once or twice a week. You will be at higher risk of getting scars in your scalp which will cause further hair lose in the long run. Also, use minoxidil the day after since it can cause irritation and further worsen the condition, as well as getting unwanted side effects from Minoxidil. You can probably use Minoxidil twice a day everyday, but the day you derma roll, just don't apply any in your scalp for better and more long lasting effects. Hope it helps.
@@TheManshink i don't use minoxidil but i use some anti loss lotions (i don't need minoxidil for now). According you i should use lotions the day after derma rolling or in my case it doesn't matter?
Just got one today. Only gonna use the roller first and we'll see if it makes any changes. I won't be using minoxidil as of now cus you have to basically use it for years and years once you get on it. We'll see what happens.
Hey Al, great video!! Quick question, would you only use Minoxidil once a week after derma rolling or everyday? You don't mention the frequency of the minoxidil use. Thanks!
@@_desaix9174minoxidil is a vasodilator. Originally used for treating hypertension (in form of pill) so it could cause hypotension, tachycardia, swelling to extremities and much more
It might be the case that you have androgenic hair loss, like me. My doctor told me to do the rolling, use minoxidil and also take finasteride. Its about to be 4 months and I have recovered a noticable amount, my hairline is also much more defined now. He said in a couple more months I should be near fully recovered hair
Can I use derma roller with coconut oil instead of monoxidil ? I'm 28 years old from India, my hair density is getting low...day by day . What to do ???
if mox gets into your blood stream it can cause a LOT of heart problems .. not to mention with this way most of the work being done here is prob the mox.. A decent heathy sawp would be rosemary oil (home made) and showering with rosemarry water.. tho it does getting tiring
Very Useful Video I started dermarolling from past 2 weeks.I have 2-3 confusions.Can you please help me Out Firstly I am using 0.5 mm derma roller twice a week .Is it Ok ? Secondly it causes bleeding so does it is good or I am doing too hard/deep? And lastly Can I apply topical minoxidil after derma roller? Kindly Guide me
Hello~ I sincerely want to ask you some questions. I saw that Derma Roll is divided into two types: 540 & 600Needle number. I would like to ask which one should I buy if I want to use it for hair growth?🙂 Also, how to use Derma Roll with Minoxidil? Can I use minoxidil immediately after using Derma Roll?
Hi, I think you meant 540 and 192 needles? It's surely better to buy the 192 needle roller, since those derma rollers have real needles, and cause less damage. But they are also a bit more expensive
@@QOONS More needles for short hair and hairless areas, less needles for longer hair. With greater needle density, risk of plucking hair increases. Needles should also be sharp and clean, to avoid scaring and infection. Also, derma pen is far superior to roller. Experiment a little, and find what works best for you.
