Dermarolling Community Trial

[brunobald]

This is my third Sunday night with this - did I mention that this hurts a lot. I will soldier on through though to see what happens in four to six months.

Tracy I have been hearing quite a lot of good reports regarding the derma pen and the fact that it is a lot less painfull. Im not sure how well it works with long hair though?

3 weeks on 2.0mm dermaroll, and 2+ years on minox

I don't think it'd be a problem going in one direction or even a little back and forth or even circular motions. My hair is quite short at the moment so am not having any problems.

Guys I'm slowly seeing terminal hair in the corners of my hairline (areas where I vigorously apply) that I haven't seen in years. Im slowly getting very excited.

I obviously need much more regrowth to be satisfied and to gain the necessary coverage, but clearly this has some substance to it. I will no doubt keep with this.

this is great news staythick, you're a trusted dude so it's good to hear that you're getting results. please take pics if things get interesting.

Does your head look all butchered like after a hair transplant right after you've done your rolling? I'd love to see some photos

Rather than growing hair, micro needling is known to improve the appearance of scars rather than create new ones.

I'm continuing with the rolling yet I'm tapering off minox as I hate the stuff. I'm going to see if just rolling and nizoral will have any results. Even maintaining what I have will be a result for me.

Hellouser, as the starter of this thread are you seeing any results?

Nope. And I'm on Kane's CB + Kirkland's Minoxidil 5%.

Which week milestone are you at, Hell?

From lurking the various forums, this sounds like the Big 3, as in some people are responding quicker than others.

How heavily are you rolling, BTW? Some are hypothesising that if you really butcher your scalp, waiting 10-14 days between rolling sessions may be better. That's just conjecture at this stage, however.

I've posted photos of my scalp after rolling. Theres some bleeding. Its not heavy but its definitely gone deep enough to bleed a bit. I'm pressing hard on my 1.5mm dermaroller ensuring it goes the full 1.5mm. Obviously, it won't go furhter than that since the needles aren't any longer.

Hellouser, you're on both CB and Minoxidil, plus the derma roller, and you're not seeing ANY results? I don't know if I missed anything you've said against fin or dut, but have you tried these two? They could be what your treatment has been missing. I would never get on any treatment without fin or dut, that would be an uphill battle.

Never tried.

However, Merck just announced theyre cutting costs, 2.5 billion and cutting 8,000+ jobs.

That put a big smile on my face. All the more reason for a superior alternative to Fin.

I should mention though that any results I may have now are going to be slow to be seen as I endured a long and REALLY BAD shed for about 3+ months.
