What is microneedling?
microneedling is basicly stabbing your face with needles for derma-collagen levels.
there's 3 types of microneedling; derma stamp, dermaroller and the best one being a microneedling/derma pen.
What is collagen?
Collagen are basicly building blocks for your skin, hair, nails, bones, cartilage and tendons.
Once you hit the age of around 20 your collagen levels will decline drastically which is the reason that old people have those wrinkles and that saggy skin. There's no real way to stop this process, so our only choice is to slow it down as much as possible before its to late.
How does microneedling increase collagen?
1: The repeated stabbing of your face will result in your body's natural healing response which will make collagen and elastin resulting in firmer and more youthfull skin.
2: The second reason why microneedling is very good is because it grants more absorption from products like topical ghk-cu and hyaluronic acid after your session.
microneedling causes an increase of 400% for collagen and elastin production in the derma after 6 months.
How to microneedle?
Now that we know the benefits and you want to start microneedling we need understand how to microneedle correcty.
What we will need
Microneedling pen ~60 usd
microneedling cartridges ~0.5 usd per session
Face wipes ~0.10 usd per session
numbing cream with 2.5% lidocaine and prilocaine ~1 usd per session
hyaluronic acid + ghk-cu formulation
Step 1
use the face wipes to rinse your face.
dont use any skincare or skin product 8 hours before your session
Step 2
wash your hands and apply the numbing cream, make sure you dont under apply.
if certain parts still hurt remember to apply more for next session.
wait 30 mins for absorption to proceed further.
Step 3
remove the excess cream with face swipes again and wait till dry.
optionally you could already apply your hyaluronix acid + ghk-cu solution.
Step 4
make sure theres a new cartridge on your pen.
cartridges are one use only since they become dull after.
Step 5
Start the treatment, follow the instructions and order i give you.
1. Forehead, 1.0mm deep
2. Left side of the face, 1.5mm deep and (zygo's 1.0mm)-
3. Bottom of the face, 1mm deep and (dont do the lips)-
4. Right side of the face, 1,5mm- deep (zygo's 1.0mm)-
5. Midface, 0.5mm deep
If blood occurs just fastly wipe it off with face wipes.
Step 6
Apply your hyaluronic acid + ghk-cu solution and youre done.
Repeat every 28 days.
Your face will be red for around 48 hours so think about that when implementing to your routine
Dont's
do not wash your face with water. do not showder. do not sleep with your side of the face touching the bed/pillow. do not use any skincare products. Minimize going outside.
After 24 hours and only after 24 hours may you put lukewarm water on your face and shower.
Also do not use any blood thinners like ibuprofen, omega-3 or topical vitamin solutions 48 hours before and after your treatment.
How to microneedle the scalp?
instead of every 28 days you could do this every week but dont use any products like topical minoxidl, ru58841, topical dutasteride etc 24 hours before and after your treatment since this will cause irritation.
What microneedle pen to buy?
i would recommend only buying a dr. pen dermapen since all other pens are basicly clones/unbranded. Dont buy any expensive dermapen since they are for clinics so the pens contain AI to see their handmovements etc.
Side effects:
the obvious like redness are not listed.
Infections
Only happens when youre an idiot, so follow the protocol given.
Scarring
doesnt happen unless you do it to often or stay to long on the same spot.
so follow the 28 days (not that bad if ur a few days off) and have consistent motion.
Nerve damage
Not possible if you follow the depths given. The closest nerve is on and about 3.0mm deep so make sure you max out at 2.0mm deep.
I'm on phone sold my laptop so I'm not doing the extra effort of coloring and font so bare with me until then.
