Step 3: ready to roll<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nNow you\u2019re ready to get rolling. If you like, you can apply a numbing cream to your face first, but it shouldn\u2019t feel too uncomfortable to use a Derma Roller straight onto freshly cleansed skin. Just be sure to wipe away any excess cream before you begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Firstly, roll vertically and as you roll, apply a small amount of pressure to ensure the roller breaks the skin, and roll upwards starting from the bottom of your face. Avoid sensitive areas like under the eyes and your eyelids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Repeat the process between two and six times, depending on how sensitive your skin is. If you notice areas of your face have started to bleed a little, don\u2019t go over those areas again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Make sure you properly cover your entire face. Then, do the same again, but roll horizontally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Step 4: apply any aftercare<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nGive your face a quick splash of clean water, especially if you experienced any bleeding. To soothe your face after rolling, apply a gentle toner and then complete your usual skincare routine, making sure you include a good moisturizer. It\u2019s a good idea to apply a nourishing serum too because your skin will be more susceptible to the ingredients straight after rolling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Step 5: clean the Derma Roller<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nOnce you\u2019re done, your Derma Roller will be covered in any dirt from your pores and possibly a small amount of blood from piercing the skin, so it\u2019s a good idea to give it a wash with some warm soapy water just to make sanitizing it easier next time you want to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to using a Derma Roller on a weekly basis, it\u2019s recommended that you start off only using it once a week to allow your skin to get used to such an invasive procedure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After a few weeks, you can start to do it more often. Eventually you should be able to roll up to three times a week and start seeing the amazing results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
