    This is my view on microneedling. In summary I do use this on a daily basis, however I prefer manual microneedling over devices. The BIGGEST mistake I see is that people go too deep with this procedure. Stay safe. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.

    I did micro needling in a dermatological clinic two days ago. I've been doing it since 2017. My skin is younger and prettier. The pores on my skin are smaller, the wrinkles around my mouth are gone. The dark circles under my eyes are clearer, too. I love micro needling 😀

      @@dimplepandey9570 Yes, microneedling will absolutely help. I am speaking from first hand experience. I had rolling & boxscars that I successfully resurfaced and improved on my own with at home microneedling. But you must use tretinoin or retin-A in conjunction with that regularly for maximum optimal results. I recommend you use those nightly. Make sure to moisturize afterwards and night, and always use sunscreen, that's extremely important.

    This is the best explanation about scars I have ever received. The comparison with the wire on the ceiling makes it so clear. Now I understand how a scars form. Here in Belgium you get little attention from a dermatologist if you consult them in connection with blocked pores or scars. I am now 75 years old and sometimes still get outbreaks with skin rash accompanied by blisters. Through a treatment with Roacutane (years ago) and repeated antibiotic cures, my skin is now oversensitive and extremely dry and thin. Unfortunately the distance to Australia is so far .....

    You should spend some time to chat with older tattoo artists. We have been doing scar relaxation, and dry needling for at least sixty years. Our needle groupings in my experience having used both micro needling wheels and tattoo machines, offer superior results for very specific issues. Such as relaxing burn scars, helping to plump up deep groves and wrinkles. As well as treat very thin skin. The way our machines work, they do not penetrate as deeply. And the variety of needle rigs make a real difference as well. The needles are grouped differently, closer together, woven in rows or arranged into rounds. This allows precise usage, and the added benefit of being able to use pigment when treating scars to help blend them in as well as relax them.

    Questions:
    1. What depth for best collagen production & how often.
    2. What depth for product like bit C absorption and how often?
    3. Is it true that Vit C should not be used after or with micro-needling because it causes granulomas?
    4. What to use with and after deeper micro-needling 0,5 and above ?
    5. Are NOT genuine needle derma-rollers safe? ( the ones that are made of needle uni blades where needles get wider, where the needles are bet 400-600 needles per roller.
    VS the genuine dermatollers where needles installed within a wheel , where the needles are the same width on the bottom and middle and are not as many max 200 needles per roller)

    Dear Dr. Lim, I am an Esthetician and so appreciate your professionalism, honesty, and informative (as well as scientific) explanations of products and procedures. The micro needling trend is just one example. Just to know that using it for Melasma can create problems on the dermal level of the skin is so important to avoid as a responsible professional! You’ve saved me from spending money on esthetic equipment/devices that may not produce the expected results as presented by distributors. I would very much like to be able to contact you for further guidance if possible since I aim to treat clients effectively and honestly with realistic expectations. Please let me know how I can contact you. Thanks and please keep your RUclips videos coming!

    At age 51 I am still battling acne scars. My scars are mostly pock like rolling scars from years and years of severe acne. Over the course of about 3 years, I had painful Fraxel laser three times on my face and on my shoulders. I’ve used TCA peels for years, yet I still have my scars. They are a bit shallower now, but they are still very noticeable. I’ve spent in the thousands. I avoided social functions that involve cocktail dresses or bathing suits my whole life. The emotional toll of acne is horrendous. None of the the derms I’ve seen here in the US do the subcission technique and just want to have a technician zap a laser or write a script for retinA. I recently bought a derma pen, I’m going to try that now. I appreciate your advice on the depth. I wish more docs were like you Dr. Lim. Thank you for taking the time to make these informative videos and get the correct information out there. Too many of us have been misled.

    I went to a dermatologist run clinic today (staffed by qualified dermatologists alongside dermal therapists) and they’ve suggested microneedling to me. I went in for concerns around rosacea, but I also have some mild (light/faint) melasma, and because of the melasma they said they would not recommend any laser treatment for the rosacea - as they believe this would definitely make the melasma worse. I don’t have any scarring on my skin.. my biggest complaint is just the rosacea.
    After seeing this video I am so confused.. It seems microneedling is best for people with scarring more than anything else. They told me the microneedling was to help rejuvenate my skin and improve it’s appearance - saying it should help stop the rosacea getting worse and calm it down, and also saying it would possibly improve my melasma spots.
    I’m at a loss, because even qualified dermatologists seem to have varied opinions etc. I’ve been to a few different ones and been recommended different things (although haven’t gone ahead with any treatment yet), so just can’t wrap my head around what the best path is.

    I used 0.5 mm microneedle to my cheeks, and it bleeds a lot. So I prefer to use 0.5 instead of 0.75 to 1mm, except for pain (I use numbing cream) it has less downtime than the 0.75 - 1 m. So it means I can perform microneedling 2x a month for 1 year and I am very happy with the results.

      @0000AT 5 лет назад

      No there is micro needling called Endymed Intensif that reduces pore size and tightens skin and reduces hyperpigmentation (if you have any).
      You might have to do 10 treatments to see drastic results if you have deep wrinkles and when you’re done your skin still gets better in time (that’s including your aftercare)

      He clearly mentioned that the method can help with fine lines anf wrinkles. The idea of the video is that it's not a universal solution, a holy grail for everyone, and you should be careful when doing it at home. But a dermatologist can assess your individual case and pursue the best course for you. That's the idea that I got from what he said.

    • @skinsciencebymira
      @skinsciencebymira 5 лет назад +7

      Bridgette Collum 80% of extrinsic skin aging is caused by sun exposure.... are you wearing a broad spectrum sunscreen that’s SPF 30-50 and applying enough as well as reapplying? As far as topical skincare, there’s a mountain of evidence supporting tretinoin for anti aging. AHA specifically Glycolic Acid, peptides, Vitamin C, niacinamide, and other antioxidants are also good ingredients to look for. Once you have deep lines though you’re looking at in office treatments. Botox and filler will of course take care of fine lines and volume. You can also try peels and laser.

That was honestly the worst waste of money of my life and I'm still pissed about it. It was like $900 🙃

    👏👏👏 In the US, especially on social media, the rampancy of "results may vary" in advertisements, especially for laser centers. The term "maintenance" is even being used widely for procedures very young clients go in for, which are completely unnecessary. I have serious boxcar, icepick, you name it scars, so to see these fresh faces going in, gives me pause. From not being able to tolerate Accutane due to *shocking* back pain, I used all sorts of drying products. now i know my skin was exacerbated from all those acne products. The video was amazing, I did not know the scars were anchored down Id love to find a dermatologist with your integrity here where I live but am still early on in my search.

    Dr. Lim, as always, great video. I discovered your videos completely by accident. I was looking for solutions for my mother's melasma and your tips have been incredible. I was wondering if you could do a video/insta on how to "control" hormonal acne? Or how to go about it I guess. Or at least your viewpoints on this. Then again it seems the subject of acne is expansive...anyways, thank you so much for your efforts. I share your videos with friends whenever I can. Seeing your videos make me so happy. You love your work and it shows. Truly, I'm a fan. Take care!

    I doctor, you are right microneedling can worse melasma specially doing it too deeply. In order to help one should use it at a depth of 0.25 with tirosinase inhibitors including peptides. I also like to use it alterned with chemical peels and an at home treatment using despigmentants and anti oxidantes

AHAs? Which creams should I use (actives?) to somehow help the skin to regenerate after the procedure?

    I would like to ask you some questions if you don’t mind,
    1) do you have a long waiting list? If so roughly about how long
    2) do you charge for a consultation?
    3) For some one who has medium rolling and tethered scars, roughly how much do they pay?
    Reason why I’m asking is because I’m trying to find out how much money I’ll need before i decide to go to Brisbane

I remember you mentioning that getting a cheap disposable dermaroller off of ebay is perfectly fine but am having a hard time finding one, as there are so many options and have heard horror stories of some with fake needles i.e. just pointed pieces of metal vs. actual titanium needles. Would you happen to have a brand or link you recommend that I can feel confident in buying? Thanks so much

The medicine like hydroquinone after needling shows better result. It doesnt make epidermal melasma to dermal melasma.if sun exposure is avoided.
