Description What is it? And how does it work? Microneedling is one of the most popular and recommended skin care treatments today! It decreases the appearance of many common skin flaws on the face by improving elasticity and complexion of your skin over time. PRECAUTIONS: • For hygiene reasons never share a derma roller with anyone else. • Not recommended for use on irritated or infected skin, active acne, rosacea, eczema, moles etc. • Be extra careful when rolling around the eyes; don't go any higher than your cheekbones (you can roll higher than this by pulling the skin away from your eye with one hand whilst rolling the skin using the other one). • Don't use a derma roller on your eyelids as the skin is too thin. HOW TO USE: 1. Wash your hands and the area to be treated thoroughly. 2. Wipe the skin and your hands with anti-bacterial gel (you can skip this step if you are using needle lengths of less than 0.5mm). 3. If you are using numbing cream, follow the manufacturer's instructions for use. Always remove the cream completely before rolling (you can use cotton pads soaked with alcohol to do this). 4. Rinse the derma roller under hot running water for a few seconds. 5. Apply skin care product, if using. 6. Whilst pulling the skin taut with your free hand, roll forwards and backwards over the area to be treated. Apply a bit of pressure to allow the needles to penetrate into your skin. Roll 8-10 times in each direction: vertically, horizontally and diagonally (forwards and back equals two rolls). Apply sufficient pressure for the needles to penetrate the skin to their full length. Lift the derma roller slightly after each roll - this will ensure that the needles create new micro-channels in the skin rather than going over the same ones repeatedly. 7. Wash treated area and dry with a clean towel or air-dry.
