WHY A DERMA ROLLER? 

Microneedling both as a medical therapy and at-home treatments are known for their skincare benefits. Microneedling is the process of creating tiny micro wounds that trigger the body to fill them with collagen while leaving the epidermis intact.

And, derma rollers help to increase the absorption of skincare products, as the microneedles create microchannels which allow active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin. It is for this reason that you must choose the most effective and safest products available. Here are our favorites: 

THINK SERUMS

Using a serum is an important part of derma rolling, as the small injuries you’ve made to the skin allow for deeper and more effective absorption of your product of choice. Thus, it’s an excellent way to ensure key vitamins, minerals and antioxidants reach the innermost layers of your skin. 

VITAMIN BOOSTS - VITAMIN C

LOOK FOR HYALURONIC ACID 

By providing an intense hydration to the skin, hyaluronic acid effectively restores elasticity and promotes cellular regeneration. When paired with a derma roller, the skin is densified and softened. A form of hyaluronic acid that has a low molecular weight, allowing it to penetrate the epidermis layer more efficiently, stimulating the production of collagen and keeping the skin hydrated, firm and elastic.
