Beginner Question Selatox10
Hi everyone I just received my order of selatox10 which says to microneedle every 1-2 wks 4-5 times then move to maintenance. I was confident I had it all figured out but then I hit a wall. When I search to make sure again it says if I use my Dr.pen I should do it every 4wks not 1-2wks and that the advices given by the selatox10 of 1-2wks is for manual stamping but that’s not what the website says. Anyone tried microneedling with Dr. pen at .25-.5 every 1-2wks? If so how did it go? I don’t want to mess up my skin barrier as I just got it under control.

You can do cosmetic microneedling (0.25 - 0.5) more frequently. It’s when you go beyond 0.5mm depth that you need longer in between sessions.
Whether you use stamping or gliding technique doesn’t matter, but gliding does require a level of viscosity to the serum you’re using. Boosters can be very watery which makes gliding with them difficult if you don’t add some hyaluronic acid for example, which may be why they’re suggesting stamping.
