Skin Roller therapy (also referred to as skin needling, dermal rolling, and micro-needling) is performed with 192 micro needles mounted on a small wheel that gently rolls over the face and painlessly penetrates the skin’s upper surface. This simple but revolutionary treatment provides multiple benefits:
- Research has demonstrated that the effectiveness of active ingredients in topically applied skin care products (such as Vitamin A and C) is greatly improved when an intervention allows those ingredients to reach beneath the skin's outer surface.
- Rollers have been shown to increase the absorption of active ingredients in creams, lotions, and serums by up to 1000%.
- Rollers create thousands of micro-channels in the skin that allow nutrients to absorb; the channels close after several minutes, locking in the anti-aging nutrients and antioxidants.
- Skin Rollers stimulate collagen production, resulting in improved appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks.
The length of the micro-needles varies significantly among skin rollers; some rollers have micro-needles ranging from 0.2 to even 3mm in length. These are designed for use with anesthesia in a clinical setting.
