SUGGESTED USAGE:

For best results, USE SKIN ROLLER ONLY AS DIRECTED. Always first cleanse the area thoroughly with Dr. Pickart's Face & Body Cleanser. Be sure your fingers and hands are completely clean as well. DO NOT use on skin that is red, irritated, experiencing an active breakout, or if you have any skin condition. Skin area must be completely clean before rolling. Remove makeup before use. DO NOT USE AROUND THE EYES. Depending on their goals, clients have successfully used skin rollers in various ways. Here is the best technique that works well for most:

1. Gently roll on thoroughly cleansed scalp, letting the device do the work for you. Avoid pressing too hard or rolling too swiftly.
2. After rolling, apply a light amount of Folligen Therapy Spray. Folligen Spray can easily be diluted with water by taking 1 spritz in the palm of your hand, add 3-4 drops water, then lightly apply to the area.
3. Optional Tip: Emu Oil-S Lipid Replenisher for Hair OR Squalane Oil can be applied after rolling to calm and soothe the scalp.

WHAT LENGTH OF NEEDLE TO USE ON SCALP?

Since there are no controlled studies on varying needling methods, we must direct that clients thoroughly investigate and research for themselves what would be the best starting point for them and how to use another scalp product (i.e. Minoxidil) when micro rolling.

Some online information will state that the size of the needle should depend on how much hair is on the head. If hair is sparse, typically a very short length is recommended for at-home use.

ALWAYS start slowly and only after thoroughly researching what may be the best technique for your individual situation, scalp sensitivity, and goals. Keep in mind that longer needles may require a numbing cream and professional supervision.

IMPORTANT TIPS:

Take Periodic Breaks to Allow Skin to Recover | Remember: Less is More

LESS IS MORE: Overuse of your device will not improve your results and may harm your skin. Only use the device as instructed. DO NOT use around eye area.

Areas of skin to avoid: Do not use roller around eye area, on lip skin, on nose skin*, or on any area of skin that is red, irritated, experiencing an active breakout (acne), or on any skin condition (rosacea, eczema, etc). *There is less blood supply on nose area. If needling is not done properly in this area the skin can fail to rejuvenate.

How to clean your roller head: Be sure the device is thoroughly cleansed by soaking for 5-8 mins in alcohol. Do not try to use boiling water or steam to cleanse your device.

Prepare the skin before use: Skin area MUST be completely clean of dirt, makeup, etc. before rolling. Be sure that your fingers and hands are completely clean when handling your device. It may be best to only use the 1.5mm size on the body. DO NOT use on skin that is red, irritated, experiencing an active breakout, or if you have any skin condition (rosacea, eczema, etc). Start with the shortest needle length first.

Example: Think of skin needling as a method similar to cultivating a field. A disc machine is typically used first before using the actual plow. In like manner, a shorter needle length (0.5mm) will work well to prepare the skin first as you very gradually work up to a longer length (if needed).

Do not share with other persons. Do not roll too much. Keep microneedles extremely clean. Store in a safe place out of the reach of children.
