    giving it a go

    Hi all,

    I have been lurking this site for a while now, and after coming across this thread I had to join and hop on the derma rolling wagon.
    I am a nw 2 at the moment, looking to fill in my temples and crown.
    My method will be 1.5 d.r, minox once a day, and nizoral/eclipta alba oil every 3 days.
    I remember my bro had bad acne on his forehead in his teens and the dermaroller worked wonders, furthermore he has a perfect hairline eventhough he has a solar panel showing at the back.
    Probably wishful thinking but maybe the derma roller saved his hairline as he was very thorough in the areas he treated. Who knows.
    I still remain skeptical but can't help feeling rather hopeful as well.
    Ill take updated photos weekly and report my progress.
    Nice to be part of a forum that cares.

        GreyGhost, I appreciate your inputs! Any thoughts on whether Nizoral, with its anti-inflammatory abilities, could hinder the process?

          i'm wondering this too about pgd2 blockers.

          i think i'm gonna start doing i/c combo once a week, after i've fully healed from one rolling session but a few days before the next session.

            Guys I have no clue. Biz never did anything for me. Minox and fin never did. Only thing that ever worked for me was zix. It regrew my crown but I quit when I got married. Turned our sheets yellow. Women **** them! Now what am I! Just a bald ****

              When you say zix, do you mean Lecithin? Because it has been posted that it works wonders but it turn everything yellow, I have used it for two days and sure enough, all my sheets are bright yellow, including my scalp which not even with a shower did it remove all. That's how things usually go in the nutrition field, the most beneficial food are very saturated with color. These include blueberries, beets, pomegranates and a few others to name a few.

              I will just be using Lecithin and Cyrtec for 5 months and see if that helps, I will only be using the derma roller to make them absorb better. I tried it yesterday and sure enough, the Lecithin absorbed way better and I felt a bit of tingling on my scalp.

              I would try your method Ghost, but I am broke as hell, damn I hate having no money and those things you mention cost a shit load of money.

                    Of course you can infect yourself. There is a reason why they used betadine in the study. Even when you have an sterilized equipment, the skin and room where you are needling need to be clean

                    Now add that most of us will be using the same equipment several times, with varying degrees of sterilization, and an infection turns into a possibility. There is a reason why needles (even subcutaneous) need to be used only once

                        Guys look at this woman how she's making the rollin procedure in a man's face...



                        Have you seen? 1.5mm roller... and loads of blood! NO PAIN NO GAIN!

                        It seems she has a lot of practice! She could earn a lot if she'd start to do it on our scalps...

                              It needs to be pointed out that the study's mild erythema should not be considered as the same wounding which is what Dr. Cotsarelis' theory is based on. It'd be very presumptuous to say this study's dermarolling 'wounding' is the same as Follica's approach. We don't even know if it requires even more vigorous dermarolling and puncturing of the skin. Let's just go by what the study did, and see the results and THEN experiment.

                              Unless, if anyone is brave enough to go further than the study and wound once a week but using a 2.00mm or higher dermaroller. The results should be interesting if in fact we are releasing WNT proteins from this method.

                              I'm still curious as to what this could be like if we go our hands on FGF-9 and injected ourself with it using a diabetic needle AFTER the wounding.

                                I tried it on my face with a 1.5mm and it's impossible. It hurts so ****ign much, that guy in the video is taking it like a man. It is kinda retarded because all the studies to induce collagen say that you only need a .5mm a 1mm at most.

                                That looks painful as hell, anyways, I tried it on my stretch marks the other day with a 1.5mm and I have been sore ever since. I did notice that the color got better, so I guess the pain was worth it.
