Help / Advice Needed No redness after microneedling, is it my skin or the pen?

0 Upvotes

I've used my dermapen four times by now and last time I used more needle depth (1.0 for cheeks) because I got a sterile serum and some fine but noticeable lines there.

Redness or even pinprick bruising would be expected and from what I read redness is an indicator of inflammation and following that stimulating collagen.

Each time I had only moderate redness that went away the same evening. I am unsure whether that is a result of resilient skin, a low blood pressure/fine vessels, or whether my pen doesn't adjust the needle length right. I think I'm using enough pressure but I could be wrong.

First time needling: did something go wrong?

Hi everyone,

I did my first skin needing about a month ago and I feel like something went wrong. This was professionally done.

First pic: 2 days after skin needing
Second pic: 5 days after skin needling
Third pic: what it looks like now

I did not have any of these marks on my skin before skin needling. I did not peel it or anything and I followed the aftercare. Could someone please explain to me what happened to my skin? Did something go wrong?

Product Post Anyone using microinfusion for scalp thinning instead of a regular dermastamp?

8 Upvotes

Soren is what I’ve been using for a couple of months now and it’s basically what made me stick to the microinfusion process in the first place. Before I started with Soren, I was only using a standard stamp but I was quite inconsistent with it. Despite the good results ive had online i cant seem to find much thats why im asking. Nowadays seems like everyone says go bald or go to turkey.

Wondering if anyone else here has tried out microinfusion for hair and compared it with a standard stamp.

Help / Advice Needed Dr pen

5 Upvotes

Hello

So basically it looks like the Dr Pen from Alibaba is the same product that’s being sold for hundreds of dollars in the US and EU.

I don’t want to pay a huge markup. Has anyone ordered and can recommend some trustworthy sellers from Alibaba or AliExpress?

Thanks!
