I am sorry Anna, I just now found this comment. You really would not want to use more that 1.5 mm, esp. not on the face. Maybe on the body, if you have some scaring@@annapavlidou4730
Just found you. BEST microneedling video ever! Thank you so much. I was using a Dr. Pen for 3 years but JUST bought the new A6S when my old one lost power. I was not using the stamping technique as I hadn't known anything about it. My new pen will be here in a few days and I plan to follow your tutorials! Many, many thanks!
I’m a 48 year old guy and no idea about skin care etc but signs of aging have caught up with me and decided to do something about it. I have been using serums for around a year now and have finally got my head around their uses, layering them and the list goes on. I came across micro needling and thought here we go again something else to figure out, but your videos have given me the confidence to give it a go. Your explanation of all the 3 uses nano, cosmetic and medical are simply the best on You Tube. Just want to say a BIG THANKS for your time and passion in making your tutorials and I found your explanation of the pen depth settings and what to expect in terms of initial redness of the skin and post aftercare. Have you ever thought of making a video aimed at men? All the best from Yorkshire, England. ❤
Hi, I absolutely love reading your comment! I’m really glad that some of my videos have been helpful to you. I can only imagine that the skincare world must be confusing to a man. My husband, who sees me put on all kinds of serums and creams, still shakes his head, after being together for 13 years :-) I could definitely make a video for men, if you think that would be helpful. In the meantime, though, I truly think one of the most important things you can do is to use sunscreen on a daily basis. I wish I would have done so much sooner, but even existing some damage can be somewhat repaired with continuous sunscreen use Please never hesitate to reach out if I can help with anything x
@@claudiaglows Thank you for your quick response and encouraging words. I think a mention in your amazing videos about needling and how it could benefit male skin too would definitely widen your audience. Even us English Cavemen (it wouldn’t be admitted) do like to take care of ourselves and the rise in male grooming products/interventions is just as equal to that if females here in the UK - it’s certainly different from when I was in my 20’s! You will be pleased to know I always wear a factor 50 every day and what ever the weather, u fortunately I was a sun worshiper in my younger days and the damage is now starting to show - I wish I could talk to my younger self! Thank you again for your valuable time and the inspiration that you give many a newbie into the world of skincare! X
@@Happychappy-c5z Same here, I wish I could talk to my younger self and pull her out of the sun :) But we can luckily reverse some of the damage Thank you for being here xx
I tried the stamping with my doctor pen for my cosmetic needling. I like it. Especially at the tight spaces like around the mouth, and on the 11’s, and above the brows. Your tip for under the eyes was very helpful too. Thank you for investigating this and actually looking to see the effects on banana skin to see how the different penetration looks, that was smart ☀️
I'm about to start doing this with a Dr. Pen M8. A bit nervous! This video is fantastic and the information is so clear. Ideal for a 'newbie'. Thank you so much, and your skin looks amazing by the way.
Thank you so much for clearly explaining all the little details! I’m finally inspired to give it a go❤ I love how you really defined the difference between cosmetic needling and medical needling. I also really like your needling schedule. So logical and easy to remember!
Thank you for your thoughtful comment! I am really glad this was helpful and it inspired you to start microneedling. I’m lease keep us posted on how you get on with it xx
Thank you Claudia! 😊❤This was just the video I needed as I consider starting the first use of my Dr Pen and doing cosmetic needling! It will be a video that I save to guide me through the basics. I love your stamp technique and to me that feels more doable, than the little circles in my opinion. Your explanations are always so very clear and easy to follow! Like someone said, in one of your comments, you are a great teacher… That really is true!😊 Hope your day is going well.! (Ps.. I started Oralift yesterday, so I’m very excited for that whole journey…)
Thank you for your thoughtful and kind comment Sara! I am really glad this was helpful and hope it will help you with your microneedling journey. I am here if you need more help. And yay, I can not wait to hear about your experience with the Oralift xo
Such a great, thorough, hands on educational video. It’s the 1st one that made me comfortable enough to consider it. Ur teaching technique is top notch & so enjoyable❣️
Aww, thank you so much for your very thoughtful and kind comment. I’m really glad this was helpful. If you start a microneedled in, please keep us posted. Wishing you a wonderful week. xx
This video is by far the BEST and most informative i have seen I have learnt so so much thank you for your time and sharing your great tips and information xx
Hi Claudia great to see you got the dr pens 🖊 I love mine great technique you use less damage allso. That serum you use I so expensive here in Australia il stick with the neogensis recovery serum and eye serum as we have a lovely lady in Sydney Australia who sells it the barrier repair cream is fabulous 👌 for our winter months. Thanks again I hope you get many views as I reckon this is the best way to microneedle 👌👍
Hi James, great to hear from you, as always. Glad you enjoyed this video. You know I really like the Neogenisis recovery as well. I used it for years, and I just ordered some more. Glad to hear you’re enjoying it and you found a good source for it. Wishing you a wonderful week, thank you for being here. xx
I haven't started cosmetic microneedling yet, but you've convinced me! I already have the needles, soI just need to add it to the routine. Friday night will be my first go 👍
Wow!! Great!! This is just what I needed!! I just got a .5 dermaroller and I thought I could do 1x a week!! This came at the perfect time! Thank you, Claudia!! Love your videos!!
So glad I came across this I'm a novice at microneedling but I was going to stamp despite most vids showing either circling or sliding across the skin. Just seems to make sense to stamp to avoid dragging needles. You have amazing skin and jawline. Thank you
I found your video tonight and followed you along with my micro needling Dr. Pen. I had bought it 6 months earlier but only used it once. I really hesitated trying it with numbing cream and doing a home medical micro needling session. So glad I waited. I like your way of stamping the skin instead of dragging the pen over my face cause that is painful. I’m happy with the outcome. I can do this every week. Thank you. ❤
Hi Teri, I am really glad this was helpful and you were able to follow along! I just uploaded another video, this time on medical micrneedling, last week, which might also be helpful. Wishing you a wonderful day and thank you so much for your kind words x
Thank you for going over the depth you use on certain parts of the face. I am still using my Derminator and only doing .050. I feel its the safest with autoimmune disease. Thanks for the video on the Altreno. I am using it and having very good results. I was worried about the sun on my vacation in Cabo, but nothing bad has happened. I don't spend more than an hour in the sun, and I am wearing a hat to shade my face. Thanks for all your hard work beautiful!
Hi Susan, glad to hear you are still loving the derminator and it is working well for you. And also great to hear you are loving the Alterno and have not side effects with it! I love it too. It is so hydrating. Lots of love, thank you for your kind words xx
My eyebrows are so improved since doing the nano needling..it is quite amazing! I just did my first cosmetic needling after doing only nano for 2 months...skin feels great!❤
@@peterpiper5300 Yes!! Thicker and healthier, even sparse areas at the outer corners...quite amazing....I use the nano cartridge and go over the brows 3 to four times per session twice a week
Hi Claudia, great video as always! I'm so happy you made a video using your Dr. Pen and using the stamping technique. Since your banana video, I have been doing the stamping technique and it's good to see how someone else does it just for comparison. I really appreciate the thorough information. Maybe next time you could show us medical microneedling on your neck? I am finding that area challenging and would not mind some tips. I know, you must think people must be tired of the microneedling videos, but no, I love them!
Thank you for your kind comment mon ami! I am glad this was helpful I do feel that people must be tired of these videos ;). Maybe we can finally catch up via video call and I can answer any questions you have regarding the neck xx
@@claudiaglows I just found out that these devices are banned from being sold in Canada for home use (Health Canada regulation) so it’ll be a long time before I’m in the US where I can obtain a kit. It’s rather annoying to say the least.
Hi Claudia! Great video. If I may, one note: it's always good to wipe the skin down with alcohol or cleanse the skin with hibecleanse before microneedling. It can also be helpful to wear gloves just to keep everything nice and sterile.
I’ll try the stamping technique. My dr pen has been sitting in the closet bc after I used the circling technique w hyaluronic serum I scratched my face and been scared to use it ever since.
@@claudiaglows I’m sorry, I should have worded my request differently. I did watch that video when you posted it. I was hoping you might possibly release another video on the subject using the Dr. Pen, as the techniques are obviously quite different between using a dermaroller or dermastamp on the scalp versus a microneedling device like the Dr. Pen 🙏🏼
❤Thank you so much for obliging and uploading this amazing video Claudia you’re the best and so beautiful. I have the same Dr Pen in that lovely colour thank you again greetings from Canada I’m off for a one week visit to Germany today to my 40 year high school reunion! Liebe Grüße ❤
You are a sweetheart! Thank you for your lovely comment. I am glad this was helpful. Wishing you a wonderful time in Germany, my best friend from high school is coming to visit me today from German :) xx
Thanks Claudia, love how detailed you’re in “teaching” ! I wish I could be the same as you! I go on circular motion since I move to dermapen from dermarolling! But after this explanation. I will definitely go to stamping! It take bit more time, but efficient! Thanks! Ps: I’m trying to search about Microneedling with Rf in med spa, and I was wondering if this sequence could be done at home. Med Spa of course has unique machine that performs both simultaneously! Have you ever heard whether it can be done at home, Microneedles first and Rf right after! Your opinion or info are highly appreciated. You know that you have been my tutor for Led Therapy and I will never forget! Bisous 💋
Ciao Bella, it is really great to hear from you, thank you so much for your sweet comment. I am glad this video was helpful. Regarding radio, frequency, microneedling, unless you have a specific device, doing the two separately at home is not going to give you the same results as an office. The radio frequency has to be delivered through the needles to be as effective as an office treatment. You can buy those devices for at home, but they’re quite expensive. I would also be really careful with this treatment, because I do think there is a risk of facial fat loss. Sending you lots of love.
@@claudiaglows I have been doing the rf micro-needling myself at home for 3 years and have not lost an ounce of fat. These are some erroneous theories. On the contrary, my facial skin has tightened up and I have got puculic cheeks like in my youth. I laugh about it because I am 54 years old, such a little return to the past....😅
Love this video Claudia! That you actually SHOWED us the process is beyond words helpful. Question, might seem basic or obvious, but what is the biggest benefit you find with microneedling? What would you say has helped you most with fine lines/wrinkles? Thank you pretty Claudia!
Thank you fir your lovely comment Melissa! For me, microneedling has transformed my skin. It used to be paper thin. It n facials, when the aesthetician would give me extractions, is it my skin would lift off. It has gotten much thicker and more resilient. xx
Such a friendly person and great explanations. Thank you so much. So I won't be circulating with my pen. But my question is: I would like to use 0.5 depth. Then hyaluronic acid. I had seen somewhere that you can also apply Vaseline afterwards. Is that okay, or just hyaluronic acid and a day cream? Kind regards from Germany.
Hi, thank you for your lovely comment. I am actually posting a video today on that subject, I hope it will be helpful. But personally I would not apply Vaseline, just the HA and I talk in todays video about why Liebe Grüsse nach Deutschland
Thank you So much for your vidéos dear Claudia. I am 56 years old and I am going to start thanks to you 👍🤞👍 can I put Retinal or TRETINOINE after COSMETIC needling ? Thank you 🙏❤️🙏
Hi Claudia. I didn’t understand why you stopped using the derminator . I recently bought the derminator and I love it saw your old video on that and stumble in this video today. TY
Great video! I just got my micro needling kit and wasn’t aware that it should be used once a mont, I’m 56 so I have some deeper wrinkles on my forehead and in between my eyebrows, went over the areas a few times and not seeing the results yet. I’ll try it again next month and see what happens I did not go near my eyes , was not aware that I can do that. I did not put on any product on after the micro needling because I thought the serum was sufficient Will put my cold plasma on this evening
Hi, thank you for being here. Please be aware that they are different forms of micro needling, depending on the depth. I have a whole playlist on micro needling and some of those videos in them might be helpful for you to watch. If after you have questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
The thought of swirling or rolling needles across my face really freaked me out (although I have a roller for my stomach) so I went with a stamp. I may opt for a pen in the future, now that I have seen this technique can he used. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤
Claudia, you explain everything so clearly. Thank you so much. I've been doing microneedling for a few months and haven't seen this technique before. I'm going to try it. I do the little squares technique where you cover a small square of skin vertically, horizontally then diagonally. I like the look of this as it seems to have less drag on the skin. Just to check- do you still do a cosmetic needle one week after your medical one or do you leave it a bit longer?
Hi Sharon, I am glad this was helpful. Let me know how it works for you. And yes, I still cosmetic one week after medical, unless I feel my skin needs more time x
I have seen somewhere that you could use micro-needling on the body as well. Examples were to reduce cellulite in legs and buttocks and in areas where you have lax skin from a procedure. What are your thoughts on this? What would you say is the best device to use, pen or roller? What would be an ideal needle length? I imagine areas with cellulite would need 1-2. Lastly, recommended pen speed and pin number for moat effective results? Great content, thanks!
yes, you can def. do it on the body i think for the body, the easiest device to use would be a dermaroller You could use a pen, but it would take along time As far as depth, I personally would use between 1-2mm on the body xx
Hi, thank you so much for being here and for your kind comment. I’m glad this was helpful. I actually go over frequency in this video. A cosmetic needle once a week, and medical microneedled once a month. This is also a good frequency for beginners. Wishing you a wonderful week xx
Hey Claudia, thank you so much for your videos. Sorry if you already answered but what happened to your derminator 2? Trying to figure out why you changed to Dr Pen.
I always love your videos & your voice is so soothing! I'm 52 & my skin is in better shape than it has ever been from watching you. I've been doing more cosmetic needling than medical just because there is so little down time, especially when I use my red light afterwards 🙂 I had a couple of questions...1. Have you heard of or tried the Medicube booster- H? It's supposed to be for product penetration & I was wondering how it compares to cosmetic needling since both are mostly for product penetration. I'd love to hear your thoughts 2. How long does the Calcium professional serum last before it goes bad? I was thinking about trying it w/ the Qure micro-infusion system but I wasn't sure how long the serum would stay fresh & it's too expensive to let it go bad. Thanks for all your lovely videos!
Thank you for your very thoughtful comment Fran! I am really happy to hear that some of the video have been helpful. I am not tried the Medicube booster, so unfortunately I do not have an opinion on it. Regarding the calecim serum, I would say one of the little bottles lasts for about 3 or 4 treatments. It keeps pretty well, as long as it is not contaminated, meaning any sort of bacteria got into the bottle. If you end up trying it, please keep me posted. I am not sure if I love it yet, will keep you posted as well xx
Hi Claudia, you didnt finish saying why you switched from the Derminator to the Dr Pen? You ended saying stamping technique is best, but not why you no longer use the Derminator? Your videos are amazing ❤❤❤
Hi Madeline I am glad this was helpful! The company that makes the derminator has very strange business practices as well as customer service, and they do not want to support that. Wishing you a wonderful week.
Excellent video! Thanks for being so detailed with your instructions 😊. I would also be interested in your neck microneedling technique, so pls show us that next time. ❤❤ Thanks again!
Hi Renee, thank you for your kind words. I actually, just a couple of weeks ago, uploaded another microneedling video in which I show how to do the neck. I hope it is helpful xx
I bought a Vega LED Space Touch. Just to realize my husband already surprised me with one at Christmas. I paid $4000 for it brand new box not opened. Now I want to sell it.
Thank you so much Claudia for the best tutorial I came accross on microneedling ! ALL we need to know before, during and after👍 What do you suggest for the Day after..normal skincare routine ?
Hi Karin, I am really glad this was helpful. I actually just made another video on all the do's and don'ts of microneedling in which I talk in detail on what to use before, during and after. Here it is ua-cam.com/video/t6GIEGPSdfU/v-deo.htmlsi=0RXOblu5nWBE7qLO But in a nutshell, it depends on the depth. After cosmetic needling you can use your regular skincare, after medical microneedling you want to wait a few days and just use high molecular weight HA or products made to be used after medical needling or post procedure x
Thanks a lot for your reply. I think if you use the Cos de Baha hyaluronic serum, and others use it too with success, then it must be good. I don't think it has to be sterile like some few recommend. I actually think that this is a bit of an overkill. I only use it for 0.5 or 1mm dermaneedling. besides, it is still inside a bottle so its almost as good a sterile. Thank you Claudia. 😊
Thank you for doing this great video Claudia.. I am going to do the 'stamping' with my device next time, and realize I have to be a bit more patient when I'm doing it!!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t .5 Needle-depth considered medical? Therefore, it advices NOT to use topical Vitamin C after procedure. In Holly’s tutorial (she uses the Dr. Pen A6S) and advises to avoid actives immediately after micro needling.
Hi Claudia, love your videos they are very precise and clear. Can you help me understand the difference between cosmetic and nano needling and also what cartridge should we use for cosmetic with a M8 S Dr pen.Thanks for sharing wonderful videos!!
thank you for your very kind comment. Cosmetic needling uses a needle length of 0.2-.03 mm. The needles pierce the outer layer of the skin but do not enter the dermis. It helps with product penetration and a little bit with collagen (some say) Nano needling actually does not use needles but tiny cone shaped cylinders, that help to break up the cells of the outer layer of the skin for product penetration. So basically both help with product penetration, but nano is very superficial and does not involve piercing the skin, vs cosmetic needling is a bit deeper. I hope this helps x
Hi, thank you for being here. I actually do my neck, I just did not show it in this video, but I have other videos in which it show doing this on my neck.
The cartridge is actually all go the same depth. You dial the depth in on the Pen So a cartridge can go .25 deep or 2.5 deep. You can find cartridges at the website I linked below this video
Hi Claudia! Thanks for making such well researched and informative tutorials. I have a question for you. Throughout your years doing micro needling at home, have you noticed a visible improvement in pore size?
Hi, thank you for your kind words. You know, that is a great question. I have some enlarged pores on the lower part of my face, which I do think have gotten better. But I also do so many other things, such as retin a x
Hi Claudia. I just microneedled my face and it was the most painful experience of my life! I noticed that using the stamping method went deeper and hurt more than going in a circular motion. Do you find that as well? I used 16 needles, level 2 speed, 0.25-0.5 depth.
Hi Claudia, may I know why you don't use your derminator 2 this time? Some ladies told me it is better than Dr. Pen. What is your review on both devices? Which one is better?
Hi Stefany I think it is a great device, but the company practices very strange business practices, including billing customers if they date ti ask questions or have a different opinion and I do not want to support that It us a hit more powerful than the dr pen, but I am really happy with my dr pen
I’m sorry if I missed the answer to the question I’m about to ask… What are the needle depths you use when medical microneedling in the different areas of the face? Thank you 🙏🏼
Hi, I actually made a separate video on medical needling you might enjoy. If you go to playlists, there is one on micro needling. I really vary, sometimes I go 0.5mm all over, aside from under the eyes, sometimes deeper on my cheeks, like 1mm but only 0.5mm on my forehead and 0.25 under the eyes..
Thank you for this excellent explanation and demonstration! Can you tell me what the Hyaluronic acid is that you recommend? I couldn't catch the words you said after hyaluronic. Thanks- I really want to see how you do the neck and décolleté!
thank you for your kind comment. You want to look for high molecular weight hyaluronic acid. The Cos da Baha is a good one I made another video shorty after this one showing how I do my neck and decollete. If you go to playlists and then microneedling, it will be the most current one x
Can you microneedle over a short cut beard where skin is somewhat visible or do you need to shave? What about the chin area where it might be a bit thicker but still close?
Hi Claudia, what are your thoughts on medical micro-needing and the utilization of your own plasma during and after the procedure with a Dr. Pen at home?
Hi, I am assuming you mean PRP? If so, personally, I think it’s overrated. I think it’s good for injury or even hair grow but focus cosmetics. I haven’t seen too much from it as far as results.
@@claudiaglows that is correct, PRP. I have used both PRP as well as serums and I prefer the serums such as the ones you have used on your videos containing PLLA than PRP. Thank you for answering my question. 100% agree with you. 💕
You are gorgeous and your commitment to skin health shows. Thank you for this informative and comprehensive video. Found you after order my pen, and now thinking of getting a dedicated cosmetic pen as my korabeautical v2 only comes with cartridges with 16 needles. Thoughts?
thank you for your lovely comment. You know, rather then buying a whole new pen, I made a video recently on using a stamp for cosmetic needling. It is super easy and so much faster. I use the Dr Pen stamp x
@@claudiaglows oh, nice! I will check that out. I was thinking of something more “basic” for the cosmetic needling, too. Thanks for the swift reply. So glad I found you here!
Claudia, I love your content.❤❤❤ I’m going to medical needle with the dexacell this weekend. Question: So I thought that if you as going shallow (ie 0.3mm or less: cosmetic needling) you should inc the speed. And when you go deeper (medical needling) you need to decrease the speed bc it takes longer for the needles to go up and down. Is this correct?
Hi, thank you for your kind comment To be honest, I do t know the answer. I started staking about 1year ago and there is not too much info out there as far as does when stamping. So I just always go on medium to high x
I would like to share my advice. I used to have breakout all over my face. And a lot of cystic acne with red - swelling dermis. I try to have acne medication for over 10 years with the same cycle of medication with no way out. Thus, there must be something fishy about the method. Changes has been made by applying cream that recovery my skin barrier as HYA, Niacinamide and use RF home device weekly to boost skin remedy. After 6 months, my skin acnes reduce greatly and texture will gradually glow. Dont rely on medication or else suffer the never ending circle of acne.
Excellent tutorial. Actually my M8 caused a line (scratch mark) by moving the device in a straight line as you mentioned within the video... but I learn. Will this mark go away after a few sessions If I apply hyaluronic acid over the scratch and move the device in circles.
Hi Claudia. First, this is a great tutorial on MN. I wanted to ask about prepping your face and how you clean the skin in preparation. I saw some people use alcohol wipes but that looks incredibly drying. Is just cleansing your skin with a good cleanser how you do the preparation before MN? I’m referring to cosmetic MN. Thanks :)
Hi Gillian I agree with you, alcohol on my skin does not seem appealing For cosmetic needling, while you need to have clean skin, it does not have to be sterile I double cleanse my skin before cosmetic needling x
Hi Claudia informative and instructional videos which brand of the thermostat as well as the dermapen would you recommend for someone doing these procedures at home? Also I'm not sure if you've done these videos already however I had a appreciate if you did some videos on how you would approach the medical microneedling under the chin the neck chest area as well as under the eyes eyebrows Etc thank you for your time in creating these videos. You're a blessing🙏🏾
Hi, thank you so much for your lovely comment. I actually have a whole playlist on micro needling, and in that you will find how I personally do the neck and around the eyes. If you go to my channel page, there is a option for playlists where you can also find videos on shorts. Click on that and then click on micro needling. Please let me know if you cannot find it. Personally, I use a Dr pen as well as Dr stamp. They have many different models of pens, you really can’t go wrong with any of them.
Hi Claudia I have been reviewing the list of the I believe 14 videos on microneedling however I did not see a video dedicated to how to medically microneedle the neck and chest area . If you could let me know the title of the video that it's under I would really appreciate it .
If you could please include the link in the reply then I could access the video directly so that I can view it . Also what Dr pen would you advise that I purchased as I'm just starting out with this process? I know you mentioned you have two different Dr pins however I believe you prefer the one that's I believe aqua for the colour, Dr Pen A6s. Thank you
Hi Claudia, I hope all is well! My Dr. Pen device only works while the power cord is plugged in. It doesn't work with the battery. I wondered if you wouldn't mind instructing me on how to activate the battery. I have followed the instruction booklet, but the batter is not working. Many thanks in advance for taking the time to answer my request!
Hi Rubi So the battery needs to be charged first. Once charged it should be good for several sessions. Did you try to charge it and it does not charge?
I actually have several videos in which show different growth factors, so please check those out. If you go to playlist, I have a whole one on micro needling. I really don’t have a favorite at the moment, but in those videos are so as I mentioned several different ones
So I’m watching that again . I would like to give my Dr Pen a try again. Claudia, you’ve been trying at home RF device from what I’ve understood, so you combine it with cosmetic or/and microneedling? Thank you
Hi, I have been trying an at home RF device, but I do not combine it with microneedling. I would suggest to do those modalities on different days with a bit of time in betwen x
@@claudiaglows I’ve had Dr Pen for a couple of months and I find it so hard to use it … my painters hold is high but somehow I’m not at ease with this needle thing 😔 thank you for your response. Lovely weekend to you.
Hallo Claudia, You are really super ❤! Love all your videos , it explained clearly step by step. Yesterday i did my first microneedling, today my face a little red, not much... i am so happy and grateful to your guidance 🙏 ❤ Just wanna ask when shall i resume my retinol after microneeding ? Thank you so much. I hope you are well and good days ahead. Greeting from Borneo ♡♡♡
Hi, thank you for your kind comment. This video might also be helpful ua-cam.com/video/t6GIEGPSdfU/v-deo.htmlsi=0RXOblu5nWBE7qLO In it I talk about all the do's and don'ts of microneedling, including when to use retin a again. But in a nutshell, it really depends on the depth. How deep did you go? Greeting to Borneo xx
@claudiaglows Thank you for responding 🙏 ❤️ Greetings to you and family. I was using Dr.Pen the depth of 0.5, little red but its OK tolerable. Today my skin resume normal 🙃 😅 I am soooo glad found you. Your videos on facial improvement is the best on youtube. I will keep following your advices and sharing with my friends too. All the best Claudia 👍 YOU ROCK !
I have mostly been using European and Korean sunscreens. I’m still on the search for the perfect tinted mineral SPF, but have not yet found one. So currently my favorites are Evy, which is a Swedish, SPF, and Aptosol, which is Korean
Hi Claudia! Thank you again for amazing content! So I did the stamping technique on my face. I went to 2.0mm on my cheeks, nose and chin. And 1.5 on my forehead. I used the dexacell even tho I don’t really need slip. But I was getting tired. So for my neck and Dec I did little tiny circles and I used the dex there. When I was finally finished I used the Alastin all over. Do you think this was a good protocol in terms of which products I used? Skin feels so soft right now. I’m going to hit my BioMaxx RL/NIR panels too. Thank you. ❤
Hello Claudia, Its always so enjoyable to watch your videos. What would we women do without your great help 🥰 Regarding the Cos de Baha pure hyaluronic acid serum, do you know if this product is STERILE? I watched another UA-cam channel about microneedling and it was specified to only use sterile hyaluronic acid serums, to avoid infections or granulomas. Maybe I am overly "picky" but I just want to be sure that this specific product is ok. Also, would this Cos De Baha be ok to use for 1mm needle depth? My jowls wrinkles and neck wrinkles are really bad. thank you for all that you do and for your helpful suggestions.
Hi Sonja, thank you for your kind words. No, it is not a sterile product as it comes in a dropper bottle. If you want sterile, you need to get something that comes in a one time use vial. But yes, it can be used to needle 1mm deep xx
Hello dear Claudia! Your videos about microneedling are the best on UA-cam! Very informative and detailed explanation! ❤ Have a wonderful evening!
Hi sweet Marina, thank you for your lovely comment! I am glad to hear these videos are helpful
Lots of love to you
xx
I am Anna from Greece Thank you very for this video very helpful. Can you tell me please When we use more than 1,5??
I am sorry Anna, I just now found this comment. You really would not want to use more that 1.5 mm, esp. not on the face. Maybe on the body, if you have some scaring@@annapavlidou4730
yes the best
Just found you. BEST microneedling video ever! Thank you so much. I was using a Dr. Pen for 3 years but JUST bought the new A6S when my old one lost power. I was not using the stamping technique as I hadn't known anything about it. My new pen will be here in a few days and I plan to follow your tutorials! Many, many thanks!
Hi, I am really happy you are here and that this was helpful!
I you just hit the new M8S and live it
Hope you will yours

Where do you buy your numbing cream and hyaluronic serum?
I’m a 48 year old guy and no idea about skin care etc but signs of aging have caught up with me and decided to do something about it. I have been using serums for around a year now and have finally got my head around their uses, layering them and the list goes on.
I came across micro needling and thought here we go again something else to figure out, but your videos have given me the confidence to give it a go. Your explanation of all the 3 uses nano, cosmetic and medical are simply the best on You Tube. Just want to say a BIG THANKS for your time and passion in making your tutorials and I found your explanation of the pen depth settings and what to expect in terms of initial redness of the skin and post aftercare.
Have you ever thought of making a video aimed at men? All the best from Yorkshire, England. ❤
Hi, I absolutely love reading your comment! I’m really glad that some of my videos have been helpful to you. I can only imagine that the skincare world must be confusing to a man. My husband, who sees me put on all kinds of serums and creams, still shakes his head, after being together for 13 years :-)
I could definitely make a video for men, if you think that would be helpful.
In the meantime, though, I truly think one of the most important things you can do is to use sunscreen on a daily basis. I wish I would have done so much sooner, but even existing some damage can be somewhat repaired with continuous sunscreen use
Please never hesitate to reach out if I can help with anything

Thank you for your quick response and encouraging words.
I think a mention in your amazing videos about needling and how it could benefit male skin too would definitely widen your audience. Even us English Cavemen (it wouldn’t be admitted) do like to take care of ourselves and the rise in male grooming products/interventions is just as equal to that if females here in the UK - it’s certainly different from when I was in my 20’s!
You will be pleased to know I always wear a factor 50 every day and what ever the weather, u fortunately I was a sun worshiper in my younger days and the damage is now starting to show - I wish I could talk to my younger self!
Thank you again for your valuable time and the inspiration that you give many a newbie into the world of skincare! X

I tried the stamping with my doctor pen for my cosmetic needling. I like it. Especially at the tight spaces like around the mouth, and on the 11’s, and above the brows. Your tip for under the eyes was very helpful too. Thank you for investigating this and actually looking to see the effects on banana skin to see how the different penetration looks, that was smart ☀️

Thank you Claudia! 😊❤This was just the video I needed as I consider starting the first use of my Dr Pen and doing cosmetic needling! It will be a video that I save to guide me through the basics.

I started Oralift yesterday, so I’m very excited for that whole journey…)

I found your video tonight and followed you along with my micro needling Dr. Pen. I had bought it 6 months earlier but only used it once. I really hesitated trying it with numbing cream and doing a home medical micro needling session. So glad I waited.

Thank you for going over the depth you use on certain parts of the face. I am still using my Derminator and only doing .050. I feel its the safest with autoimmune disease.

Since your banana video, I have been doing the stamping technique and it's good to see how someone else does it just for comparison. I really appreciate the thorough information.

@@claudiaglows I just found out that these devices are banned from being sold in Canada for home use (Health Canada regulation) so it’ll be a long time before I’m in the US where I can obtain a kit. It’s rather annoying to say the least.
@@missmelissa3573 wow, that is really interesting. I had no idea that you would be in Canada. I’m really sorry about that.
Hi Claudia! Great video. If I may, one note: it's always good to wipe the skin down with alcohol or cleanse the skin with hibecleanse before microneedling. It can also be helpful to wear gloves just to keep everything nice and sterile.
I’ll try the stamping technique. My dr pen has been sitting in the closet bc after I used the circling technique w hyaluronic serum I scratched my face and been scared to use it ever since.
Same. Dr pen is garbage. Try derminator, it's awesome!

Don't use the circle technique rather the stamping technique!

Thanks Claudia, love how detailed you’re in “teaching” ! I wish I could be the same as you! I go on circular motion since I move to dermapen from dermarolling! But after this explanation. I will definitely go to stamping! It take bit more time, but efficient! Thanks!

Have you ever heard whether it can be done at home, Microneedles first and Rf right after! Your opinion or info are highly appreciated. You know that you have been my tutor for Led Therapy and I will never forget! Bisous 💋
Ciao Bella, it is really great to hear from you, thank you so much for your sweet comment. I am glad this video was helpful. Regarding radio, frequency, microneedling, unless you have a specific device, doing the two separately at home is not going to give you the same results as an office. The radio frequency has to be delivered through the needles to be as effective as an office treatment. You can buy those devices for at home, but they’re quite expensive. I would also be really careful with this treatment, because I do think there is a risk of facial fat loss. Sending you lots of love.

Question, might seem basic or obvious, but what is the biggest benefit you find with microneedling? What would you say has helped you most with fine lines/wrinkles? Thank you pretty Claudia!
Thank you fir your lovely comment Melissa!
For me, microneedling has transformed my skin. It used to be paper thin. It n facials, when the aesthetician would give me extractions, is it my skin would lift off. It has gotten much thicker and more resilient.

Such a friendly person and great explanations. Thank you so much. So I won't be circulating with my pen. But my question is: I would like to use 0.5 depth. Then hyaluronic acid. I had seen somewhere that you can also apply Vaseline afterwards. Is that okay, or just hyaluronic acid and a day cream? Kind regards from Germany.
Hi, thank you for your lovely comment. I am actually posting a video today on that subject, I hope it will be helpful. But personally I would not apply Vaseline, just the HA and I talk in todays video about why

Thank you So much for your vidéos dear Claudia. I am 56 years old and I am going to start thanks to you 👍🤞👍 can I put Retinal or TRETINOINE after COSMETIC needling ? Thank you 🙏❤️🙏
Hi Marie, glad this was helpful. Yes, if your skin can handle it, you can apply that after cosmetic needling, but not after medical micro needling.
Hi Claudia. I didn’t understand why you stopped using the derminator . I recently bought the derminator and I love it saw your old video on that and stumble in this video today. TY
@claudiaglows yes please let us know why you do not use the derminator anymore.
You can use growth factors such as the calecim pink serum right after
Great video! I just got my micro needling kit and wasn’t aware that it should be used once a mont, I’m 56 so I have some deeper wrinkles on my forehead and in between my eyebrows, went over the areas a few times and not seeing the results yet.
I’ll try it again next month and see what happens I did not go near my eyes , was not aware that I can do that.
I did not put on any product on after the micro needling because I thought the serum was sufficient Will put my cold plasma on this evening
Hi, thank you for being here. Please be aware that they are different forms of micro needling, depending on the depth. I have a whole playlist on micro needling and some of those videos in them might be helpful for you to watch. If after you have questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
The thought of swirling or rolling needles across my face really freaked me out (although I have a roller for my stomach) so I went with a stamp. I may opt for a pen in the future, now that I have seen this technique can he used. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤
I agree Grace! Glad this was helpful and thank you for being there ❤️
Claudia, you explain everything so clearly. Thank you so much. I've been doing microneedling for a few months and haven't seen this technique before. I'm going to try it. I do the little squares technique where you cover a small square of skin vertically, horizontally then diagonally. I like the look of this as it seems to have less drag on the skin. Just to check- do you still do a cosmetic needle one week after your medical one or do you leave it a bit longer?
Hi Sharon, I am glad this was helpful. Let me know how it works for you. And yes, I still cosmetic one week after medical, unless I feel my skin needs more time

I have seen somewhere that you could use micro-needling on the body as well. Examples were to reduce cellulite in legs and buttocks and in areas where you have lax skin from a procedure. What are your thoughts on this?
What would you say is the best device to use, pen or roller? What would be an ideal needle length? I imagine areas with cellulite would need 1-2.
Lastly, recommended pen speed and pin number for moat effective results?
Great content, thanks!
yes, you can def. do it on the body
i think for the body, the easiest device to use would be a dermaroller
You could use a pen, but it would take along time
As far as depth, I personally would use between 1-2mm on the body

How often do you microneedle? And how often should a beginner do it?

Hey Claudia, thank you so much for your videos. Sorry if you already answered but what happened to your derminator 2? Trying to figure out why you changed to Dr Pen.
I always love your videos & your voice is so soothing! I'm 52 & my skin is in better shape than it has ever been from watching you. I've been doing more cosmetic needling than medical just because there is so little down time, especially when I use my red light afterwards 🙂 I had a couple of questions...1. Have you heard of or tried the Medicube booster- H? It's supposed to be for product penetration & I was wondering how it compares to cosmetic needling since both are mostly for product penetration. I'd love to hear your thoughts 2. How long does the Calcium professional serum last before it goes bad? I was thinking about trying it w/ the Qure micro-infusion system but I wasn't sure how long the serum would stay fresh & it's too expensive to let it go bad. Thanks for all your lovely videos!
Thank you for your very thoughtful comment Fran! I am really happy to hear that some of the video have been helpful. I am not tried the Medicube booster, so unfortunately I do not have an opinion on it.
Regarding the calecim serum, I would say one of the little bottles lasts for about 3 or 4 treatments. It keeps pretty well, as long as it is not contaminated, meaning any sort of bacteria got into the bottle. If you end up trying it, please keep me posted. I am not sure if I love it yet, will keep you posted as well

Thank you so much Claudia for the best tutorial I came accross on microneedling ! ALL we need to know before, during and after👍
What do you suggest for the Day after..normal skincare routine ?
Hi Karin, I am really glad this was helpful. I actually just made another video on all the do's and don'ts of microneedling in which I talk in detail on what to use before, during and after. Here it is ua-cam.com/video/t6GIEGPSdfU/v-deo.htmlsi=0RXOblu5nWBE7qLO
But in a nutshell, it depends on the depth. After cosmetic needling you can use your regular skincare, after medical microneedling you want to wait a few days and just use high molecular weight HA or products made to be used after medical needling or post procedure

Thank you for responding so quickly!!!!
You are very welcome
Thanks a lot for your reply. I think if you use the Cos de Baha hyaluronic serum, and others use it too with success, then it must be good.
I don't think it has to be sterile like some few recommend. I actually think that this is a bit of an overkill.
I only use it for 0.5 or 1mm dermaneedling. besides, it is still inside a bottle so its almost as good a sterile. Thank you Claudia. 😊

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t .5 Needle-depth considered medical? Therefore, it advices NOT to use topical Vitamin C after procedure. In Holly’s tutorial (she uses the Dr. Pen A6S) and advises to avoid actives immediately after micro needling.

0.5 mm is co spiders medical needling and touch hit want to use vitamin c with that

Hi Claudia, love your videos they are very precise and clear. Can you help me understand the difference between cosmetic and nano needling and also what cartridge should we use for cosmetic with a M8 S Dr pen.Thanks for sharing wonderful videos!!
thank you for your very kind comment. Cosmetic needling uses a needle length of 0.2-.03 mm. The needles pierce the outer layer of the skin but do not enter the dermis. It helps with product penetration and a little bit with collagen (some say)
Nano needling actually does not use needles but tiny cone shaped cylinders, that help to break up the cells of the outer layer of the skin for product penetration. So basically both help with product penetration, but nano is very superficial and does not involve piercing the skin, vs cosmetic needling is a bit deeper.
I hope this helps

Hi Claudia. I just microneedled my face and it was the most painful experience of my life! I noticed that using the stamping method went deeper and hurt more than going in a circular motion. Do you find that as well? I used 16 needles, level 2 speed, 0.25-0.5 depth.
Yes, I do find that stamping is a bit more painful. But I think it’s worth it to have a safe treatment

Hi, I am assuming you mean PRP? If so, personally, I think it’s overrated. I think it’s good for injury or even hair grow but focus cosmetics. I haven’t seen too much from it as far as results.
@@claudiaglows that is correct, PRP. I have used both PRP as well as serums and I prefer the serums such as the ones you have used on your videos containing PLLA than PRP. Thank you for answering my question. 100% agree with you. 💕

Could you please add the product links for what you are using?
Hi, I linked them below this video. Please let me know if you can not find them

You are gorgeous and your commitment to skin health shows. Thank you for this informative and comprehensive video. Found you after order my pen, and now thinking of getting a dedicated cosmetic pen as my korabeautical v2 only comes with cartridges with 16 needles. Thoughts?
thank you for your lovely comment. You know, rather then buying a whole new pen, I made a video recently on using a stamp for cosmetic needling. It is super easy and so much faster. I use the Dr Pen stamp

@@claudiaglows oh, nice! I will check that out. I was thinking of something more “basic” for the cosmetic needling, too. Thanks for the swift reply. So glad I found you here!

Claudia, I love your content.❤❤❤
I’m going to medical needle with the dexacell this weekend.
Question:
So I thought that if you as going shallow (ie 0.3mm or less: cosmetic needling) you should inc the speed. And when you go deeper (medical needling) you need to decrease the speed bc it takes longer for the needles to go up and down. Is this correct?
Hi, thank you for your kind comment
To be honest, I do t know the answer. I started staking about 1year ago and there is not too much info out there as far as does when stamping. So I just always go on medium to high

Thank you very informative. I'm a very lost man when it came to using my dr pen
I am glad this was helpful

I’m 24, on accutane and have active acne ugh. Hattteee acne so much. Hopefully will microneedle after my acne clears
I am very sorry to hear you are struggling with acne and hope the accutane will help

I would like to share my advice. I used to have breakout all over my face. And a lot of cystic acne with red - swelling dermis. I try to have acne medication for over 10 years with the same cycle of medication with no way out. Thus, there must be something fishy about the method. Changes has been made by applying cream that recovery my skin barrier as HYA, Niacinamide and use RF home device weekly to boost skin remedy. After 6 months, my skin acnes reduce greatly and texture will gradually glow. Dont rely on medication or else suffer the never ending circle of acne.
Loved your explanation ❤❤❤ thank you !
Glad it was helpful Renata ❤️
Excellent tutorial. Actually my M8 caused a line (scratch mark) by moving the device in a straight line as you mentioned within the video... but I learn.
Will this mark go away after a few sessions If I apply hyaluronic acid over the scratch and move the device in circles.
Hi David, I no would think eventually the scratch will go away
Hi Claudia. First, this is a great tutorial on MN. I wanted to ask about prepping your face and how you clean the skin in preparation. I saw some people use alcohol wipes but that looks incredibly drying. Is just cleansing your skin with a good cleanser how you do the preparation before MN? I’m referring to cosmetic MN. Thanks :)
Hi Gillian
I agree with you, alcohol on my skin does not seem appealing
For cosmetic needling, while you need to have clean skin, it does not have to be sterile
I double cleanse my skin before cosmetic needling

Hi Claudia! Thank you for your channel. I'm considering doing this myself. May I know what exactly medical microneedling has done for you?
Hi, thank you for being here. It has made my skin stronger and thicker and reduced fine lines
Hi Claudia informative and instructional videos which brand of the thermostat as well as the dermapen would you recommend for someone doing these procedures at home?
Also I'm not sure if you've done these videos already however I had a appreciate if you did some videos on how you would approach the medical microneedling under the chin the neck chest area as well as under the eyes eyebrows Etc thank you for your time in creating these videos. You're a blessing🙏🏾
Hi, thank you so much for your lovely comment. I actually have a whole playlist on micro needling, and in that you will find how I personally do the neck and around the eyes. If you go to my channel page, there is a option for playlists where you can also find videos on shorts. Click on that and then click on micro needling. Please let me know if you cannot find it. Personally, I use a Dr pen as well as Dr stamp. They have many different models of pens, you really can’t go wrong with any of them.
Hi Claudia I have been reviewing the list of the I believe 14 videos on microneedling however I did not see a video dedicated to how to medically microneedle the neck and chest area . If you could let me know the title of the video that it's under I would really appreciate it .
If you could please include the link in the reply then I could access the video directly so that I can view it . Also what Dr pen would you advise that I purchased as I'm just starting out with this process? I know you mentioned you have two different Dr pins however I believe you prefer the one that's I believe aqua for the colour, Dr Pen A6s. Thank you
Hi Claudia, I hope all is well!
My Dr. Pen device only works while the power cord is plugged in. It doesn't work with the battery. I wondered if you wouldn't mind instructing me on how to activate the battery. I have followed the instruction booklet, but the batter is not working.
Many thanks in advance for taking the time to answer my request!
Hi Rubi
So the battery needs to be charged first. Once charged it should be good for several sessions. Did you try to charge it and it does not charge?
Hi Claudia! Many thanks for your quick response. I have the device plugged in, but the battery is not charging.
Hi Claudia, I would like to try Growth Factors during microneedling. Can you please tell me what one to get and where to get it?
I actually have several videos in which show different growth factors, so please check those out. If you go to playlist, I have a whole one on micro needling.
I really don’t have a favorite at the moment, but in those videos are so as I mentioned several different ones
So I’m watching that again . I would like to give my Dr Pen a try again. Claudia, you’ve been trying at home RF device from what I’ve understood, so you combine it with cosmetic or/and microneedling? Thank you
Hi, I have been trying an at home RF device, but I do not combine it with microneedling. I would suggest to do those modalities on different days with a bit of time in betwen

@@claudiaglows I’ve had Dr Pen for a couple of months and I find it so hard to use it … my painters hold is high but somehow I’m not at ease with this needle thing 😔 thank you for your response. Lovely weekend to you.

In it I talk about all the do's and don'ts of microneedling, including when to use retin a again. But in a nutshell, it really depends on the depth. How deep did you go?
Greeting to Borneo

@claudiaglows Thank you for responding 🙏 ❤️
Greetings to you and family.

What are your favorite face sunscreens without a bunch of aluminum and metals and harsh chemicals? Thanks!!
I have mostly been using European and Korean sunscreens. I’m still on the search for the perfect tinted mineral SPF, but have not yet found one. So currently my favorites are Evy, which is a Swedish, SPF, and Aptosol, which is Korean
You look really great without makeup ❤
Thank you June ❤️

Hi Claudia!
Thank you again for amazing content!
So I did the stamping technique on my face. I went to 2.0mm on my cheeks, nose and chin. And 1.5 on my forehead. I used the dexacell even tho I don’t really need slip.
But I was getting tired. So for my neck and Dec I did little tiny circles and I used the dex there. When I was finally finished I used the Alastin all over.
Do you think this was a good protocol in terms of which products I used?
Skin feels so soft right now. I’m going to hit my BioMaxx RL/NIR panels too.
Thank you. ❤
Hi, I think overall it was a good protocol. But personally I would not go that deep
However if it works for you, they’d great
Great video, love it. Thanks for sharing ❤
I am glad it was helpful. Thank you for being there ❤️
Hello Claudia, Its always so enjoyable to watch your videos.
What would we women do without your great help 🥰
Regarding the Cos de Baha pure hyaluronic acid serum, do you know if this product is STERILE?
I watched another UA-cam channel about microneedling and it was specified to only use sterile hyaluronic acid serums, to avoid infections or granulomas.
Maybe I am overly "picky" but I just want to be sure that this specific product is ok.
Also, would this Cos De Baha be ok to use for 1mm needle depth? My jowls wrinkles and neck wrinkles are really bad.
thank you for all that you do and for your helpful suggestions.
Hi Sonja, thank you for your kind words. No, it is not a sterile product as it comes in a dropper bottle. If you want sterile, you need to get something that comes in a one time use vial.
But yes, it can be used to needle 1mm deep
