How to clean a dermaroller (a necessary procedure)
Disinfecting and cleaning your dermaroller is a necessary procedure before using it. A dirty, soiled needle can introduce bacteria into the skin's pores or cause an infection. The needle may be contaminated with dead skin cells, blood, oil, or hair.
Which alcohol should you use?
Use at least --- 70%alcohol. 90% is also fine. The only difference is that the higher the percentage, the faster it will dry.
Below 70%, disinfection will not be complete, and it is important to purchase 70%.
You can find both isopropyl and ethyl alcohol in pharmacies.
Step 1 – Check the dermaroller
Remove the mesoroller from the case and check that all the needles are in perfect condition.
When using a new tool for the first time, it is important to check that the needles are in perfect condition.
It is generally advisable to simply glance at it each time after the first use.
Step 2 – Sterilize the dermaroller with rubbing alcohol
Alcohol can be in both spray and liquid form.
If you have a spray, then spray it well all over the dermaroller so that all parts are covered.
If it is liquid, then pour it into a small bowl or glass and insert the dermaroller for 5 minutes so that the head is completely covered.
Step 3 – Drying
After 5 minutes, remove from the alcohol and place in the case. Wait 10 minutes for it to dry.
Do not place it on paper, a towel, or a napkin. The dermaroller head should dry without touching anything.
If the alcohol particles are still on the surface, you will feel a slight burning or tingling sensation, but nothing special.
Step 4 – Water and sterilize a second time
After the procedure, run cold running water to rinse away any blood, oil, or cells, and repeat the sterilization steps before placing back in the case for the next use.
Please note:The dermaroller is for personal use only and can only be used by one person. If you drop it on the floor, it is best to use a new one and throw away the one that fell on the floor.
After every 10-12 uses, the roller needles become dull and need to be replaced.
The dermaroller will be used on the face, scalp, and beard.
Dermaroller for the face
Step 1 – Wash your face thoroughly and dry it well. Before the procedure there should be no makeup or sunscreen on your face. Use micellar water, which will help you remove makeup, for example. Soak a cotton pad and gently remove the makeup. To clean your face, you can use a chlorhexidine solution, which you can moisten with a cotton pad. Of course, your hands must be clean.
As mentioned above, you can apply a soothing cream if your skin is extra sensitive. This does not mean that after applying a soothing cream, you change the size of the roller or go deeper into the skin. It's just that some people can't stand even the slightest stinging. If you apply the cream, wait until it's completely absorbed into your face. About 10 minutes.
Recommendation 1 – Divide the face (cheeks, chin), forehead areas.
Before you start using it, measure and divide the area of your face and forehead. Once you have applied it, take it off your face and apply it again from the same starting point.
Follow it vertically first and pass it 4 times. After each pass, pick it up and then pass it horizontally and diagonally in the same place 4 times. Do not apply too much force, gently and lightly. Not too quickly. On the part where the skin structure is much thinner, approach it with even more caution.
Recommendation 2 – Avoid the lips, eye area, and nose ..
Recommendation 3 - Carry out the process for about 2-4 minutes.
Recommendation 4 Of course, this procedure won't be the most pleasant in the worldbut it's not painful either. There should only be spotty, controlled bleeding that will stop on its own within a few minutes.
Recommendation 5 - After dermarolling is finished, the best time to apply apply a serum to your face is when your skin is open and most receptive. You can use serums that contain hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic gel). Do not use serumsthat contain vitamin C or retinol. Avoid exfoliants. You can also apply a facial moisturizer, but also without retinol or alcohol.
Recommendation 6 As mentioned above, rinse the dermaroller under running water, clean it with alcohol, and store it in its case.

Intense exercise that causes sweating on the face is not advisable. Sweating can open the pores again. Avoid exercise for the next 36-48 hours.
Do not take a hot bath or expose your face to hot water for a long time.
Do not swim for 48 hours.
Do not undergo laser hair removal for 3 days.
Don't apply spray tans for 2-3 weeks.
