    I'd recommend anyone needling for wounding purposes get off the dermaroller and get hold of a dermastamp. I find it much, much easier to get the job done with a stamp, especially if you're treating a larger area of scalp.

      james have you seen actual regrowt with the derma rolling?

      i feel like theres so many ppl talking about rolling, but not reporting on any regroth? what have your results been so far

        I just started a couple weeks ago... it definitely makes my scalp feel great the next day, that's about it so far

          Where do you buy sucralfate?I know that it can't penetrate the skin because it has a molecular weight for about 1000.And for something to penetrate the skin,it has to be max 500

            Bloody hell I have not heard of sulcralfate for many years that's a really old hairloss product that did nothing holy moly.
            I Tried it its a gastric product made from fructose a suger when I used it it was powder that was a bit sticky on the scalp and did not do anything.

              Not sure of your age but back in the mid late 70's "Bio-Genesis Original Helsinki Formula System" was the smoke & mirrors miracle cure > > > that did nothing.

                Is there a general census with rolling? A lot to read through here...

                  Don't get your hopes up. PrettyFly will return to baseline in a year or so.

                  As if dermarolling would work on only 1 person out of thousands who tried it. Have some common sense here.
                  Return to baseline? Doesn't look that way

                  3 Year Update, ~6 months since last progress pics

                  Thought I post an update as I'm still getting gains from this treatment:

                  First pic: ~1 year into treatment
                  Second Pic: ~2.5 years on treatment
                  Third pic: ~ 3 years on treatment (6 months since last pic)

                  You can see the time and date stamps in the picture headings

                  One thing I added in the last 3 months is a Betadine based shampoo which I use prior to rolling which is about once every 1.5-2 weeks.

                  Ive had some new regrowth on my temple which was slick for the last 8 years and some of the hairs are clearly turning terminal. Wondering if the Betadine shampoo has been responsible for this latest regrowth....?

                  Ive highlighted the area

                    Thanks for the update Fly, great progress. I haven't rolled for months now but still use Rogaine. I haven't seen improvement since I stopped rolling. Really need to start again.
                    When I did roll, I used a Betadine solution right before rolling each and every time.

                          Hey Vic have you tried Dr Bronner's peppermint soap? been using it for a couple weeks now, i add rosemary, teatree and lavender into it. Haven't noticed much on the frontal front but the temples just above my eyelashes to about 2 inch up has been sprouting darker vellous hair about 2cm long with more getting darker and growing each time, my crown seems thicker and got darker vellous hair growing at my nape, which is the only place i don't dermaroll. I roll 5mm every 3 days and 1.5cm every 10 days.

                            Are you adding essential oils? How much of each?
