The Dr. Pen New Zealand Derma Roller is a fantastic entry point into the world of microneedling, allowing you to experience the anti-ageing benefits of microneedling without the hassle and expense of regular beauty clinic appointments. And because it's a mechanical device, you control the pace and pressure, giving you greater control.
Differences Between a Derma Pen and Derma Roller
A derma roller is used for microneedling in the same way our Dr Pen derma pens deliver collagen induction therapy through microneedling. The derma pens are electric and powered by a motor, whereas the derma rollers are powered by hand. For this reason, derma rollers are more time consuming to use than a pen and are far more and limited and less sophisticated devices. So while both products do deliver collagen induction therapy through microneedling, the derma roller is more of a basic intro option and the derma pen is the superior choice.
However, this also means there is a big difference in price point too. The appearance of a roller is also different. A derma roller features a cylindrical attachment cartridge which connects to a handle. The cartridge is covered in lots of tiny needles which prick the surface of the skin, creating "micro-wounds" in the same way a derma pen does (you can learn more about this process here) except because a roller is less flexible and the cartridges are much bigger, you will find it harder to reach those little curves and crevices on your face in the same way a pen can. The pens have smaller, more flexible cartridges designed to reach those hard to reach areas on the face, such as around the nose and eye areas.
Benefits to using the derma roller:
Derma rollers can improve the appearance of
- Fine lines & wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
- Sun damage
- Uneven skin tone (smooths skin)
- Acne scarring & other scarring
- Stretch marks
- Loose skin
- Dullness (brightens skins)
The Dr. Pen New Zealand Derma Roller has a static 3mm needle, ideal for improving tougher and irregular areas of tissue such as stretch marks and scarring.
Directions for Use:
- Cleanse skin with cleanser of choice to remove all traces of makeup. This will also prevent the exchange of bacteria.
- Apply hyaluronic acid onto skin before rolling.
- Roll the derma roller back and forth about 4-5 times in each direction horizontally, vertically and diagonally, on the area you wish to treat.
- Maintain a uniform speed and pressure for the best results.
- After treatment apply a serum such as hyaluronic acid to skin while micro-channels are still open.
How often should you derma roll?
- How often you derma roll depends on the length of needles, you’ll be using.
- For a derma roller 0.3 mm - use 2-3 times per week (starting with less)
- A sensation like a mild sunburn is normal and may last for 24 hours.
- Derma rolling is best performed in the evening.
- Make sure your skin is completely recovered before starting another session.
