Does Derma Roller Work for Hair Loss?

Let’s know all about Male Hair loss through my video :

Yes, it does! Many benefits come with micro-needling especially in treating hair loss. Studies have shown that it’s an effective treatment for alopecia because it helps stimulate collagen production and can help trigger stem cell production in the hair follicles. Thus, increasing hair regrowth. Also, if you’re still asking the question, “do derma rollers work for hair growth?” then you must know that it helps with the absorption of products that treat hair loss like:

• Minoxidil
• Growth Peptides
• Platelet-rich plasma

However, before you implement derma rolling, you need to speak with your doctor about all the hair regrowth options and if you need to add any additional treatments to your haircare routine.

Dermaroller is a device, which uses the mechanism of micro-needling that stimulates hair growth.

• It makes tiny pinpricks on the scalp.
• The pricks stimulate new cell production and increase blood circulation, without causing any damage or pain.
• The scalp then reacts to the pricks to produce new skin, by releasing the human growth hormone.
• It’s been a proven effective treatment in most cases. But, again it depends on genetics, sex, diet, age, and health condition.
• It increases the blood flow to the hair roots and stimulates an enzyme named sulfotransferase that helps improve the efficacy of Minoxidil.

• Wet your hair before using the device, to prevent your hair from getting tangled in the roller.

• Begin using it from the front side of the scalp or near the hairline and roll your way down the back of the head.

• Focus on one section of the scalp at a time.

• Roll it over each area 10-15 times, horizontally, vertically, and diagonally.
  You should roll only in one direction when the needles are in contact with the scalp.

• Don’t roll forward and backward at a time to prevent any scratches.

• Make sure that the pressure you apply is only moderate to avoid over irritating your scalp and prolonging recovery time.

• Repeat this process until you have covered all areas requiring treatment.

• It is always advisable to get trained once about how to use dermaroller properly by your dermatologist before you start doing it yourself at home.

  Let’s have a glance on how to use Dermaroller for hair

• Yes, definitely Dermaroller and minoxidil as a combination treatment work best on hairs.

• Using Dermaroller and Minoxidil together boosts the absorption of minoxidil and makes it more effective.

To achieve maximum benefits, dermaroller can be used from 2-3 times a week to once in 2 weeks depending on various factors like area requiring treatment, needle length and hairloss.

It is advisable to get the treatment done under the purview of licensed dermatologist professionals. The derma rolling process is not surgical, hence, there are not many risks involved but the whole process does require trained hands, and this is where a professional comes in.

A licensed practitioner will do the procedure with minimal complications and scarring. Request a consultation before taking on the treatment and also ask about the approximate cost. A reputed medical practitioner will show you a portfolio of their work, during the consultation.
