Derma rollers have become increasingly popular over the last decade, and many women and men use them for all sorts of skin-related problems: acne,scars, cellulite, stretch marks, anti-aging, wrinkles, and even hyper-pigmentation.
A derma (skin) roller is a small barrel-like roller with around 200 tiny micro-needles that, when rolled on the skin, create tiny punctures in it, pushing the pores open for a short period of time. The body reacts as if it has been damaged, releasing growth factors that stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, forming new, healthy skin. The roller can be used on almost any part of the body, except the eyelids and lips.
