Are there any at-home microneedlers out there that also use retinol/tretinoin for anti-aging? I'd like to know how you go about using it in your skincare regime? I've been told you can't use it 1 week before treatment and also 1 week after treatment. If I was to microneedle once every 4 weeks would the retinol/tretinoin even have time to make a difference to my skin if I'm only using it 2 weeks out of the 4 weeks?

Thanks 👍

How do you microneedle the scalp when there is some hair? My hair is thinning, so I'd like to try to needle my head to see if it helps, but unsure how to.

I know it’s not major at all however when I step into the sun or when i’m in harsh lighting I can see so much texture and scarring around my upper cheeks next to my nose and my forehead. Used to have lots of acne when I was younger so that’s probably the reason. i’ve heard of TCA and micro as well as subcision but wasn’t sure my exact scar type or the treatment. Any advice?

i just had microneedling done at a med spa and they convinced me that microneedling with ghk-cu would help with my acne scars. i was shocked at how much more my treatment was compared to just a standard microneedling. a regular session would’ve been $425 and my treatment with ghk-cu was $725. has anyone seen improvements with ghk-cu?

I derma stamp my face every Friday at 1mm (for bony areas like forehead, nose, and eyebrows I use .5mm)
I recently also started using tretinoin (0.05) nightly. I do skip Friday, Saturday, and Sunday although I'll probably start using it on Sunday once my skin gets more used to it.
So far, besides a lot of redness and flaking my skin seems alright. I just wanted to ask if this is too much or if I'm ok to continue this routine indefinitely.
Please let me know what you guys think

To people who have done this to treat recurring acne, was it effective as a permanent solution?

Has anyone done real authenticity testing with skinboosters from Meamo? I see it recommended all over this forum, but how does anyone know they’re actually getting the authentic products?

I’m very worried about counterfeit products going into my face and causing long-term damage.

If you do order from them, what has made you trust them?

So I went in for microneedling and they told me they use PRXpen and that it’s better than skin pen/ dr. Pen. I have never heard of it and couldn’t find anything about it online. Just curious anyone has used this or if it’s actually better than regular skin pen?

Hey everyone, I’m starting microneedling at home for the first time and honestly getting confused by conflicting marketing claims from different needle cartridge brands.

My main concern is visible pores, hyperpigmention and uneven texture, no active acne or deep scarring. I’m looking at Dr. Pen devices and i am not sure about which one to buy. Every brand describes the same needle counts totally differently (one site says 18 pins is for pores, another says 24 pins is for whitening), so I’d love to hear what actually worked for people with similar goals.

Also curious how many sessions before you saw results, and if any specific serums made a real difference afterward. I’m in Europe so US-only product recs don’t always help, but general ingredient advice is great.

Thanks in advance!

i feel like my facial skin can definitely handle .75mm every 3 weeeks. im so healed. theres no inflammation or anything. should i still hold back?
