How does the Dermaroller Work?
The Dermaroller is rolled over the skin creating tiny pin point punctures in to the dermis, the majority of which actually simply push open the pores temporarily. The body perceives this as skin damage and releases the growth factors that trigger the production of collagin and elastin. The human body reacts to any injury by initiating the healing process, but usually it will only heal as far as it must to keep you healthy – which is different from healing to a cosmetic level. By persistently triggering the healing process, you encourage your body to continue healing until the job is finished.
After the treatment your skin will look like it has had mild sun burn and sun screen will be applied. 24 to 48 hours later the skin will show minimal changes therefore reducing the amount of downtime.

An effective treatment for stretch marks
The process of removing stretch marks or treating stretch marks happens as the Dermaroller stimulates the production of new collagen fibres and elastin in the skin. The stretch marks fill in, the skin thickens, tightens and elasticity is restored. The rate at which stretch marks removal can be achieved varies depending on the severity of the case, but noticeable changes can be seen in as little as a week with dramatic results in a month or less.
