    Unlikely that 0.5mm will cause bleeding. Its not THAT bad even with a 1.5mm. Yes it hurts, but its tolerable.

    Get an antiseptic to clean the dermaroller before and after.

    These growth factors and CB is my last hope Hellouser..which still might be too late for my hairline at this point. If I see zero progress over the next few months with both of these treatments, I'm opting for a HT with either Dr. RAHAL or Dr. Wesley.

    And be gone from this forum forever.

    I still believe dermabrasion + injections of synthetic FGF-9 could be the final answer, no HT necessary.

    Are you planning on obtaining FGF-9 and injecting it in you scalp? I can't wait any longer for these so called companies to come out with this sort of treatment.

    Time is not on my side when it comes to me balding..

    The problem with aggressive micro-needling is that there is really no longterm studies that have been conducted on the formation of scar tissue within the scalp that can ultimately adversely effect hair growth. If you couple that with potential tissue irritants found in these topical vehicles the potential for irreversible damage is certainly there. I really think people need to exercise caution when doing this, real damage can be caused.
