Finding the Right Derma Roller Needle Length for Your Skin Problem.
Derma-Roller come with several needle lengths to reduce different skin conditions, so it is best to buy the needle length which best suits the condition or body part you are trying to treat.
Derma Roller Needle lengths are available for home use: 0.5mm, 1mm (1.0mm), 1.5mm and for professional use: 2mm (2.0mm) and 2.5mm there are a few longer derma roller sizes only to be used with numbing cream. A few companies even provide 3 line rollers (made narrow to reach harder to improve areas such as around the nose) in 1.0mm and 1.5mm sizes.
whats the best needle size for stretch marks?
It is recommended to use 1.0mm derma roller for light stretch marks and 1.5mm for deep stretch marks, you would need to decide which would best suit your needs.
The correct needle size for acne scars or other facial scars?
The 0.5mm is best for light acne scarring, mild chicken pox scars or ice pick scars, or just normal anti ageing treatments as it is gentler on the delicate facial skin. A 1.0mm roller is more suitable for deeper acne scarring, surgery scars, ice pick or chicken pox scars, and 1.5mm Derma Roller are for very deep scars. A Dermaroller 1.5mm is the biggest size recommended to use on the face (except when carried out by a proffesional), but your face has a higher sensitivity to treatments then say your legs or arms, so it is best to go for a smaller needle rather than a longer one.
You may also wish to choose the 3 line roller as it is more suitablebetter suited to use on certain sections of your face (such as around the eyes), but it is not essential as the normal roller may suit you best for all round usage.
