    hi fred no im going by the australia dermaroller skin care centre they also have a video and they say use a 0.5mm roller everyday and minox once a day.
    But the study here does seem more impressive with the 1.5mm roller note they do say in the study not to use as hell does and cause bleeding that is over the top i will use as per study only to cause slight redness of the scalp.

    Hey guys,

    I jumped on the dermarolling 4 weeks ago, so it'll be my 5th time rolling tomorrow.

    I just want to report my results so far.

    I use a 1.5mm roller, once a week.
    Rogaine foam 2x a day except on day of rolling
    Started on Propecia on week 2.
    I keep my head buzzed, so its easy for me to track any changes

    After first week I saw some white fuzz on left side of my head.
    By the second week there was alot more white fuzz on both sides and two or three black hairs on left side.
    This week some of the fuzz are starting to turn black, and there are few more black thicker hairs coming out.

    I take pics every week. The camera doesn't pick up on the fuzz, but the amount of regrowth is pretty noticible by eye. I'm only 4 weeks in so I'm pretty excited and suprised I'm getting results that fast. The propecia is probably contributing also, but its still pretty fast. I'm not sure how much regrowth ill get, but hopefully it'll continue to grow.

    Great update Bro but the problem is we don't know if your regrowth is because of Dermarolling or Finasteride!!! :confused:

    As promised here are my 3 month update photo's which I'm posting for all to gauge the effectiveness of this treatment.

    To summarize, I haven't changed anything in my regime from my first posts on page 6-8 of this thread as I didnt want to blur any results by changing techniques. My understanding was the original purpose of this thread by Hellouser was either to replicate the study or undertake a regime with slight variations on the technique. I'm planning to stick with my regime until I see someone yield better results with theirs. In no way am I saying mine was better than the studies, I had just been doing it for 2 months so thought to carry on.

    Ive tried to match close ups over various area's of my shiny NW6 head to compare each area individually. Sorry if they are not exactly correctly positioned as these were all taken with an Galaxy SIII but I think they show enough detail.

    Would like to hear everyone views on them, whether there has been any progress. Be gentle with your comments please, this is my head after all:o

    For those using this technique, please please please keep going, it's only been 1 month since this thread started and the only way we can verify or disprove the study is with multiple cases. Close ups before and during are the only way to see if anything is happening as its VERY slow in my case so please take baseline pictures.

    I only took temple shots at 1 month into treatment.

    Sorry its so many.

    My view: Regrowth is still happening but more slowly now, I think Im seeing new very fine hairs sprouting from my slick temples but can't be sure as the old photo's go blurry there. Older regrowth seems to be thickening but is VERY slow. There are thousand of black dots just below the skin and I'm hoping those are hairs resting.

    Intresting to note the hairs on the crown are growing in the classic whorl pattern suggesting its regeneration of older follicule rather than new ones.

    Could be a super responder to fin, but fin rarely if ever grows back terminal hairs on previously bald areas.

    @prettyfly: that regrowth is amazing! So pleased for you. Maybe we don't need to draw blood afterall.
