    Women and men use it for acne, wrinkles, etc. already. I haven't heard of reported scarring so we should be fine.

    It is actually being used as a treatment for scarring, so I would think that is not an issue

    Hi All

    First post here but long time reader.I added derma rolling to my regime about two months ago and without being overly optimistic I feel I'm getting some significant regrowth.

    Quick facts, age 30, NW5 going on 6. Regime has been nothing until 3 months ago when I decided to try get some hair back before I left it too long. Started loosing at 21, NW4 at around 25 and shaved my hair No.0 since. Started Minox 3 months ago, added derma rolling 1 month in, hoping to get increased absorption. Added Vita C and MSM around same time. Been sticking to it since. Never done Finasteride but have and am still seriously considering.

    Biggest plus for all reading this is that Ive been taking pics fairly frequently so maybe people can add their opinion on my presumed regrowth or not....hopefully the pic has uploaded

    Can you maybe upload the pictures ? Use http://tinypic.com/ for example.
    At first glance your results look very good but it's hard to tell because of the cropped pictures.

    Makes sense, however this guy in the link talks about the different needle sizes, and in the comments he recommends 192 needles since 540 will only cause unnecessary trauma and damage... I will do some more research before I decide.

    But the damage is exactly what needs to be done; wounding and regeneration with minoxidil causing a chain reaction of events... Minox --> PGE2 --> FGF9 --> Hair Follicle Neogenesis

    I can clearly see new hair follicles!

    What kind of dermaroller are you using and how many needles does it have?

    Thanks for posting!!
