I used the 100 yesterday. It was amazing!!!! I have oily, sensitive & acne prone skin but after using it just once my skin absorb serum & cream fast. And in the morning my skin was brighter & free from oil all day.
Ahh so glad you covered the reedle shot! I was hoping to see some progress shots to see results you got with it, but it's been on my list to try cause it looks promising
I have the 100 and my skin likes it, no bad reaction. I also have the 300 and an EGF serum but I want to build my tolerance before using. My concern is that the "needles" stay into the skin... Are we sure they dissolve completely ? How does it work? Dr Dray said her concern about this technology in her video Spicules in skincare.

I wonder if it’s safe for longterm use. If it gets so deeply into the skin, can it get into the bloodstream?…Block capillaries or cause other problems?

It’s barely penetrating into the epidermis. It’s not getting very far at all, therefore not getting to bloodstream
thanks for the vid i’ve been eyeing these!! have you used the reedle shot products with tret? i know tret tolerability is different for everyone but i’m wondering if you found that combo too irritating
what happens to the spicules afterwards? Do they get dissolved into your skin? Or are they gonna stay lodged in there and accumulate as you use the product?
im curious about this as well. i watched a video from dr.dray about silica granuloma and it scared me so much cause the side effects wont be noticeable for like years and even decades

Hi Ramon, you are awesome explaining products. I have e a question. I am 54 and I'm going get the 300 to try out. I am also doing tretinoin every other night. If I get the serum in combination with the 300 and use it the days I don't use tretinoin will that be too much actives on my skin? I'm combo skin and also have Rosacea. Hope to hear what you think. Thank you❤
I just started using this stuff but I won't lie, I am a little nevous about it. No one is talking about where these little reedles go afterwards. Do they disintedrate, do they wash off, do they get absorbed in to the skin, and my main concern, can they migrate through the skin into the bloodstream and be damaging to your health in the long run? Anyone know?

They stay in the topmost part of the topmost layer of the skin, and they fall out as your skin sheds naturally
Hi! Just trying to understand how it works. Are the ‘reedles’(the microneedles that feel prickly) made up of the ingredients in the serum? Like the ingredients are made into the shape of a needle? And the needles are later absorbed into the skin. Or is there an external ingredient in a needle shape that makes a path for the other ingredients? And that needle is later on is expelled from the skin?

The “hydrolyzed sponge” on the inci are the reedles (spicule) themselves. They then basically do the second thing you said, although they can also be coated or soaked in ingredients as well (like in the reedle shot products)
@ ohh, I see! Thank you for clearing that up!! Does the hydrolysed sponge get automatically expelled from the skin? Or does it like break down and get absorbed too? Curious because they say the 100 is safe to use everyday, but I’ve seen reviews where people still feel the prickling the next morning.
Do you know how this compares to self dissolving microneedle patches? I love using the patches overnight (and sometimes over actives) when i really want diminished wrinkles the next day. The patches i am using now have niacinamide, caffeine and argireline.

The one thing I’m not sure is the longevity of the needles in the patches. From the data I’ve seen, the reedles can last in the epidermis for up to 72 hours, which I assume means you’ll have some sort of penetration benefit for majority of that time
Ok but what happens to the Reedles once they’re in our skin/bloodstream? Do they dissolve into something our body recognizes or are they more of a foreign entity our bodies see as intrusive? do they get absorbed into our bloodstream and we have to secrete them out?

Do you think we can use with retinol? On the same night I mean

Yes, especially since this is supposed to go with their reti-A line. Individual skin sensitivity definitely plays a big role though. Enhanced penetration means increased potential for irritation for those with sensitive skin
@@Elrewin59since the 300, 700 and 1000 are meant to use every x number of days, I would skip using a retinoid on those days. The 100, I've been using everyday, some days with BHA, some days with tretinoin and experienced no irritation. I can just feel the spicules for longer

Vt reedle shot 100,300 and 700 can eliminate perforated scars if we are consistent?honestly from you..because VTCOSMETIC says the effect is like doing microneedling
Im so glad you talked about this. You have been the clearest so far in explains how it works. I own one that i bought a few months ago and haven’t used yet just becsuse i use facials retinol etx. I am going to start in operating after my next facial.
I have been using this for 2 weeks now, using vt reedle shot 100 with instree retinol MWFS then TTHS vt reedle shot 100, vit c + moisturizer with cica. So far, it is good.
Hello, great video! Quick question, do we need to wash our face again after applying cica reedle shot OR should we just proceed right away with our skincare routine after applying the cica reedle?:) Thank youuuu!!
I very much appreciate your discussion of the VT Reedle Shot products, your experience and how they might be incorporated into a skincare routine. I have the 100 and 300 on order and hope for better penetration of my active products with subtle results over time. I have mature, dry skin and rosacea, so I expect I will need to approach my most sensitive areas with care.
yeah true, my face act like that for the first n i stop like a month . and use it 3 times a week n use moisturizer . also dont use harsh cleanserr @@petrastree
uhm.. extremely gimmicky isn't it? ;) But even if it worked, micro damaging my skin with "needles" to have a cica complex help restore the damage (I just made) is sort of contradictory right? I dunno I guess my point is: this is not what cosmetics are supposed to do, (if it works as it is supposed to) this is pharmaceutical or medical territory.
8 місяців тому+9
Think of it a penetration enhancing. It creates very very very small channels in the skin. The cica isn’t repairing the skin necessarily. It’s just a means of delivering actives. There’s been some interesting promising evidence on these for delivering actives just a little more effectively into the epidermis (still cosmetic) by helping ingredients suppress the barrier easier. And the studies shows very good sensitivity profiles. I personally find them interesting, and a handful of brands and companies have decided to explore the technology more. I do have studies in the description box.
What happens to the reedles? Do they dissolve? Are they forced out by the skin? Do they stay in the skin and accumulate?? Nobody addresses this question!!!!

Such a helpful explanation!! I have been using the reedle shot 100 on rest nights and haven’t had irritation but from everything I’ve seen no one else seemed able to confirm if you could use it with retinoids or in the morning. I can try it out and if not it’s good to know there is also a 50 version milder
Comparing reedle shot to 'other exfoliants' or microneedling is NOT an accurate comparison. Those other methods do NOT stay on or in the skin. These 'reedles' are being massaged into the skin. There is NO control over depth, penetration or even trajectory. They are being left IN and ON the skin. This is dangerous, stupid and unsafe. Products put on the skin are also absorbed by the skin and into the body...so what happens when these 'sponge spicules' are absorbed into the body? This trend is just disturbing. There's no reason for it. There are better and safer alternatives. Sooner or later there's going to be some medical horror story of the consequences of these 'spicules' being left in and on the skin and absorbed into the body. It's just stupid...right up there with the tide pods.
7 місяців тому+6
They penetrate just slightly into the epidermis and don’t actually go into the body. They shed naturally with skin desquamation. Did you look at any of the attached studies?
@ I reject this dismissal explanation. They are microneedles. If you are rubbing them into the face, there is no control over depth, penetration or trajectory. This action does not have the effect of 'shedding' but of penetration, as described. This is the action that is 'allowing other products to penetrate, ' both during and after mechanically massaging them into the skin. They are NOT all 'shed natually with skin desquamation.' Is that word supposed to impress me? This explanation is even more disturbing. So, if someone uses this before bed, and some of these microneedles are 'shedding' on to bedding that they are sharing with a baby or pet...that's also concerning. What about shared towels These microneedles are Actively penetrating and remaining in the skin. Anything put on or massaged into the skin is also absorbed into the body, especially if they are 'microscopic.' This is how many topical medications/ hormones are also delivered 'transdermally' into the body for a systemic effect. I look forward to the day this ridiculous, unnecessary and harmful fad is over. There are better and safer alternatives.

@sebrinadickerson3341 cosmetics don’t absorb into the skin. That’s actually a big benefit of penetration enhancers. I’m not forcing you to use this. You can choose to do as you please, especially if that comes to refusing to consider some of the studies around the ingredient and how it works. What I’m trying to explain is that, again, the spicules are very very tiny. Even with the penetration into the topmost layer of the epidermis, they’re not getting very deep at all, and they naturally shed with the skin. That’s all that desquamation means. As you said, MEDICATIONS penetrate deeper than the epidermis because they’re DRUGS. COSMETICS don’t have that same effect because they can’t.
@You Sir, are an extremely patient and kind man. This person is rude, condescending, and disrespectful. It’s just sad that we live in a world where people can’t express themselves properly, or are so intolerant of things they disagree with or simply don’t understand. Im so sorry that you had to deal with that, but I also commend you for having so much patience 🫶🏽
Ive used the 300 a total of 3 times over the past 2 months, but every single time Im left with irritation. Used it last night and woke up to some plumpness but lots of redness (skin barrier is definitely compromised), it seemed I have more noticeable pores after using it? (I guess this is the channels created). Can't really say if the irritation is worth it as I was trying to improve skin appearance and some small hyperpigmentation spots😵💫, but the irritation may very well end in more hyperpigmentation 🥲🥲 So for anybody wanting to try it put I would suggest going below 300 if your skin is sensitive. Btw 300 does feel slightly gritty when rubbing
I've been using the 300 for 2 weeks now and I have been receiving compliments that my skin is glowing and looks smoother! My new HG!
Hello does the 300 means it’s ppm? And May i ask, do you use it as a moisturizer?

As you said, MEDICATIONS penetrate deeper than the epidermis because they’re DRUGS. COSMETICS don’t have that same effect because they can’t.
Hi.
@You Sir, are an extremely patient and kind man. This person is rude, condescending, and disrespectful. It’s just sad that we live in a world where people can’t express themselves properly, or are so intolerant of things they disagree with or simply don’t understand. Im so sorry that you had to deal with that, but I also commend you for having so much patience 🫶🏽
Ive used the 300 a total of 3 times over the past 2 months, but every single time Im left with irritation. Used it last night and woke up to some plumpness but lots of redness (skin barrier is definitely compromised), it seemed I have more noticeable pores after using it? (I guess this is the channels created). Can't really say if the irritation is worth it as I was trying to improve skin appearance and some small hyperpigmentation spots😵💫, but the irritation may very well end in more hyperpigmentation 🥲🥲
So for anybody wanting to try it put I would suggest going below 300 if your skin is sensitive. Btw 300 does feel slightly gritty when rubbing
EXPERIMENTS WITH ANIMALS? No thank you. NOT CRUELTY FREE 🧪😡☠️
