Please don’t any oils or anything emollient or occlusive during microneedling or 48 hours after. You only want to use hyaluronic acid or a water based product safe for transdermal injection or you greatly increase the odds of infection. You even want to avoid sunscreen if possible by staying inside the first 24 hours. Any dermatologist or trained esthetician will tell you the same thing. Vitamin C or any actives are a no too, people have gotten foreign body granulomas from using Vit C and some of the cases were permanent. There’s no need to go over .50mm for collagen induction and I wouldn’t go over that anyway unless seeing a professional. Are you aware that you don’t want to microneedle more than every 4-6 weeks? Collagenase the enzyme that breaks down collagen peaks at 2 weeks so microneedling sooner can do the opposite of what you want. The only exception would be if you’re using .25 or the nano cartridges for better penetration of products.

Faux Wanata why are you wanting to add the magnesium? You want to sanitize your skin and your instruments as much as possible but you don’t want anything that won’t evaporate like alcohol does. It’s not solely about germs (though that’s a big one) but also about not using anything not safe for transdermal injection.

She did say every 6 weeks. I'm about to start this and I bought the ordinarys buffet with copper peptides. It's full of all types of peptides, no oil and no but c. I also have a their hyluronic with B5 serum I was going to use ....

Just got my Dr Pen and Hyaluronic acid! So excited to do this on my own. Treatments like these cost $150-300 depending on where their office is located. I live in SoCal so prices range from $150 outside LA to $300+ for anywhere near Beverly Hills. It’s insane how much they up charge just because of their location and client income. Same products, same technique, $100-200 more. A word of caution to anyone embarking on this journey: 1. Sanitize, sanitize, sanitize. Sanitize your table, hands, chair, tools. If you even think you’re going to touch it, sanitize it before you start. You’re damaging your skin and it will be open to all the bacteria in your room. 2. Easy does it. The hardest lesson for any skincare enthusiast is to be patient. Why try 1% salicylic peel when you can try 40%? Except that’s not how health works. Be kind to your skin, you’re hurting it after all. 3. No sunlight or anything oil related until fully healed (3-4 days after). Acne IS oil (sebum). You do NOT want to introduce oil while it’s healing. Water-based only. 4. Keep your wits about you. Don’t expect a miracle. Skincare can brighten and tighten to a degree but it will not give you perfect skin if it’s too late. That will need plastic surgery and fillers. You’re basically turning back time a few years. If you already have a lot of acne scars (me), the best you’ll get is even skin tone. The icepick scars will not be completely fixed from Microneedling. Best I can do is lessen it by a little.

Thanks for sharing this with all of us! I've been using at-home microneedling for about three years, and it does work for me. I'm 63 years old. The benefits that I've noticed are plumper, more glowing skin, and those two things make wrinkles and fine lines look smaller. These benefits start showing up about 4-6 weeks AFTER the procedure, and they stay for months. I found that I can do it once a week to maintain the improvement. If I stop doing it for say, three months, I notice a big difference in my skin... it looks flat and lots of dry lines. In my experience, you do NOT need to experience significant pain during the process for it to be effective. You do NOT need to see ANY blood spots AT ALL. And yes, starting with the smallest length needles (0.25mm) is the best way to do it. Then go up to the 0.5 needles, then 0.75 and then 1.0 (many kits have all these sizes in the package.) There are longer needles but holy cow, they draw blood and we don't need to be THAT vain, do we? Good luck with this, I hope you have success like I did. Thanks again for posting. :)

One more thing to say. I am in school studying aesthetics and we were taught that when doing the Micra needling you only go in straight lines whether it be up down to the side vertical, whichever way, it has to be a straight line. You don't ever go around in circles anywhere because that can cause scarring!!!

You need to have a numbing gel for 20/30 minutes. Prep your face, wash it and sanitize it. Then use microneedling with hyloranic or water based products to deliver these products deep into your skin and to glide the pen on. Use the pen in vertical, cross, an circular motion in each area. It is ok to feel hot, tight, swelling, and slight pain with it. It feels like sun burn. Then do not touch your face or wash it til 24 hour period. You can use cooling gel to cool it down. That's at least what is my Aesthetician do. Redness would resolve in 2 days for me. The skin might flakes after word. You would see beautiful skin on the 4th day and on.

I have deep scars on my cheek from cystic acne and further scars from DIY-gone-wrong to fix ice-pick scars home-use TCA- I use cotton bud instead of toothpick & cause even bigger holes on skin and uneven skin tone. I just did my first session today. I feel that stamping can target the the scar area better.

Thank you for sharing! I'm contemplating on buying the M8. I noticed that you never used numbing cream. Does it hurt to do this without it? I'm hesitant to use numbing cream as I have very sensitive skin. Dr Pen also recommends wiping the numbing cream off with 60% alcohol. Yikes! Wouldn't that dry out your skin?

@LifeDIY

Yes, you have to clean the skin with alcohol prior to needling, whether you use numbing cream or not. It is drying, but it will be ok. I hate breathing it in though. And, I just prefer not to use numbing cream. It was very painful at first and it often is quite painful when doing treatments (just certain areas like the forehead) but I am kind of used to it now.

Em, so sorry for the late reply. I think you may want to ask Penny this on her channel. But, I can share my opinion and experience here though. I used to get absurdly red and inflamed from microneedling. Now when I do it, I sometimes barely get red at all. What depth did you do? Even if I go deeper now, I barely get red. I don't think it means you are doing anything wrong. You may want to try with the 12 pin cartridge though. Have you seen any results yet? Did you get any flaking or dry skin the week after the treatment? And, did it hurt during the treatment? Maybe your skin is just not super sensitive and can handle this needling injury a bit better, not causing a lot of redness. My skin usually gets red from everything. But, it has become used to the treatment where I now barely get red but I still get results. :)

What number needles are you using. I got number 12 and 36 ? How do we choose which one is perfect?

What depth did you use under the eyes? I just purchased this and received it today. So excited to use it and see if I can get results on myself.

The day after my treatment, I tend to use things that are super healing - so I use avocado oil mixed with a hyaluronic acid serum and then I will also use emu oil. But, any soothing oil should be fine to use. The Emu oil I buy is from Platinum Skincare.

I use numbing cream and put saran wrap on those areas to numb them. Wipe of the area with a cotton ball soaked in water, use a serum to get a slip, but do not take off other areas with saran wrap so cream does not dry.

Really? I haven't tried doing my face yet and the numbing cream was just delivered. On other videos I watched it said to completely remove the numbing cream and wash the face very well to be sure its all removed and then sanitize. They said it would stay numb for something like an hour. But I don't want to find out the hard way that they are wrong. And that's a very small bottle so I'm thinking it probably won't last for many treatments.

Yeah I love the Doctor Pen Ultima A6 I have - the link is in the description and I am so sorry for not replying 6 mos ago. What in the world...youtube is not showing me new comments! :)) Which one are you using?

Hey I was just wondering if it’s supposed to be swiped across the face or stamped? I feel like sweeping it will tear your skin.

Hi Sophia! It doesn't tear the skin when sweeping or swiping it across the face thankfully. It doesn't need to be stamped because it does that for you and is automated and quite powerful.

Your technique was gentle and it appeared to do the job! I can't wait to see how your face looks afterwards! 👍💃👍

She has a link to where she bought it from Amazon in her description. Hope that helps.

How many needles were on your tip? And what about the nano?

I'm using the exact same pen! I use the 1mm depth on the highest speed for my entire face. For some reason, it only hurts on the forehead and the nose, and this is where it goes most red, everywhere else it doesn't hurt or change colour. Is this normal?

It hurts more on the forehead and nose areas because they're more boney.

Hi, did you not use numbing cream first?

Erin, I didn't use any numbing cream. But, next time I will for sure - especially on the forehead.

Is hialuronic serum and lidocaine noming cream goes together?
