  • Microneedling at home with a derma pen, showing you how I do it safely and giving a demo, plus tips. Does this really work? I am going to start a series here, documenting progress and any and all skin changes. This will be video #1. I really want to know if it can help repair sun damage, scars or lighten wrinkles & lines, as well as improve thickness of skin and texture.
    Demo starts at: 3:02
    If you want to know as well, please subscribe and visit my website at: www.LifeandDiy.com because I will document it in depth, with photos and updates. Some of the first impressions I had on the pen, I cut out of the video because the video itself was too long. I will share all my first impressions on the website.

    Thanks for sharing this with all of us! I've been using at-home microneedling for about three years, and it does work for me. I'm 63 years old. The benefits that I've noticed are plumper, more glowing skin, and those two things make wrinkles and fine lines look smaller. These benefits start showing up about 4-6 weeks AFTER the procedure, and they stay for months. I found that I can do it once a week to maintain the improvement. If I stop doing it for say, three months, I notice a big difference in my skin... it looks flat and lots of dry lines. In my experience, you do NOT need to experience significant pain during the process for it to be effective. You do NOT need to see ANY blood spots AT ALL. And yes, starting with the smallest length needles (0.25mm) is the best way to do it. Then go up to the 0.5 needles, then 0.75 and then 1.0 (many kits have all these sizes in the package.) There are longer needles but holy cow, they draw blood and we don't need to be THAT vain, do we? Good luck with this, I hope you have success like I did. Thanks again for posting. :)

      Thank you SO much for sharing this. It is inspiring and great to hear of someone else who is having success with it and to learn of the details you shared. I really appreciate it. When you do it once a week, how deep do you do it? I agree about not needing major pain or to go really deep to have benefits. Even 0.25mm can be really beneficial. :)

    Please don’t any oils or anything emollient or occlusive during microneedling or 48 hours after. You only want to use hyaluronic acid or a water based product safe for transdermal injection or you greatly increase the odds of infection. You even want to avoid sunscreen if possible by staying inside the first 24 hours. Any dermatologist or trained esthetician will tell you the same thing. Vitamin C or any actives are a no too, people have gotten foreign body granulomas from using Vit C and some of the cases were permanent. There’s no need to go over .50mm for collagen induction and I wouldn’t go over that anyway unless seeing a professional. Are you aware that you don’t want to microneedle more than every 4-6 weeks? Collagenase the enzyme that breaks down collagen peaks at 2 weeks so microneedling sooner can do the opposite of what you want. The only exception would be if you’re using .25 or the nano cartridges for better penetration of products.

      Faux Wanata why are you wanting to add the magnesium? You want to sanitize your skin and your instruments as much as possible but you don’t want anything that won’t evaporate like alcohol does. It’s not solely about germs (though that’s a big one) but also about not using anything not safe for transdermal injection.

    Just got my Dr Pen and Hyaluronic acid! So excited to do this on my own. Treatments like these cost $150-300 depending on where their office is located.
    I live in SoCal so prices range from $150 outside LA to $300+ for anywhere near Beverly Hills. It’s insane how much they up charge just because of their location and client income. Same products, same technique, $100-200 more.
    A word of caution to anyone embarking on this journey:
    1. Sanitize, sanitize, sanitize. Sanitize your table, hands, chair, tools. If you even think you’re going to touch it, sanitize it before you start. You’re damaging your skin and it will be open to all the bacteria in your room.
    2. Easy does it. The hardest lesson for any skincare enthusiast is to be patient. Why try 1% salicylic peel when you can try 40%? Except that’s not how health works. Be kind to your skin, you’re hurting it after all.
    3. No sunlight or anything oil related until fully healed (3-4 days after). Acne IS oil (sebum). You do NOT want to introduce oil while it’s healing. Water-based only.
    4. Keep your wits about you. Don’t expect a miracle. Skincare can brighten and tighten to a degree but it will not give you perfect skin if it’s too late. That will need plastic surgery and fillers. You’re basically turning back time a few years. If you already have a lot of acne scars (me), the best you’ll get is even skin tone. The icepick scars will not be completely fixed from Microneedling. Best I can do is lessen it by a little.

    One more thing to say. I am in school studying aesthetics and we were taught that when doing the Micra needling you only go in straight lines whether it be up down to the side vertical, whichever way, it has to be a straight line. You don't ever go around in circles anywhere because that can cause scarring!!!

    You need to have a numbing gel for 20/30 minutes. Prep your face, wash it and sanitize it. Then use microneedling with hyloranic or water based products to deliver these products deep into your skin and to glide the pen on. Use the pen in vertical, cross, an circular motion in each area. It is ok to feel hot, tight, swelling, and slight pain with it. It feels like sun burn. Then do not touch your face or wash it til 24 hour period. You can use cooling gel to cool it down. That's at least what is my Aesthetician do. Redness would resolve in 2 days for me. The skin might flakes after word. You would see beautiful skin on the 4th day and on.

I have seen a few videos that said they liked the numb skin better than the numbmaster. But as we all know, our bodies can react differently to things than other peoples. I was shocked when I used it, I was numb pretty fast and it was way more numb than I thought anything could do on the surface of my skin. There were a lot to choose from and I am so glad I found one that worked great right off the bat. :)

      Razzer, I am so sorry for not seeing this. I have currently done two treatments and I didn't see anything major after one - but I am seeing improvements now after two. It definitely takes time but for me it is totally worth it. If you end up buying the one I am using, there is a link above in the description. So sorry I missed this comment before.

      Thanks so much Vicki. I did one little update (after two weeks) in another video, due to having an unexpected side effect of lots of eyebrow hair growth. But, about my skin, I will do an update soon. I have been taking super closeups because I want to document if it's working and how it's working. I will try to post some photos after it's been 4 weeks!

    Can someone help me please? I just got a Dr Pen 6AS. At 1 speed, Do the 2.5mm needles move up and down continuously ONLY past the rim/edge of the cartridge? I can’t glide or even go in circle at 2.5 mm because the needles are sticking out past rim/edge of cartridge. Does yours? Please help me.

    I use numbing cream and put saran wrap on those areas to numb them. Wipe of the area with a cotton ball soaked in water, use a serum to get a slip, but do not take off other areas with saran wrap so cream does not dry.

    • @SouthernBelle
      @SouthernBelle 9 місяців тому

      Really? I haven't tried doing my face yet and the numbing cream was just delivered. On other videos I watched it said to completely remove the numbing cream and wash the face very well to be sure its all removed and then sanitize. They said it would stay numb for something like an hour. But I don't want to find out the hard way that they are wrong. And that's a very small bottle so I'm thinking it probably won't last for many treatments.

  • @barbaras3206
    @barbaras3206 4 роки тому +10

    Great instructional vid. From what I have watched of licensed estheticians - it is very important to keep the pen tip flat on skin and not drag at a diagonal. Which I see you doing the correct way. The Dr Pen A1 goes the deepest into the dermis 3.0 mm. I think 2.5mm is good for me so I would look into the Dr Pen A7 **I hope. The site was a bit confusing with the talk about pins, needles, etc Is the smallest pin getting more penetration ? Or larger? Be sure to allow enough time to let your skin heal. Or it will break DOWN the collagen and that would be not great Thanks so much!! I will def use the numbskin lotion

    • @LifeDIY
      @LifeDIY  4 роки тому

      Thanks so much, Barbara. Have you done this treatment yet? I think 2.5 might be a bit deep - maybe look into that more. I haven't heard of anyone going deeper than 2.0, unless treating a scar. I totally agree about not overdoing it with the treatments. I've done 6 or 7 in the last year - could have done them more often at once a month. I just posted a new updated video yesterday or two days ago here: ua-cam.com/video/khT2J9rnDnQ/v-deo.html - to share what I've learned and - techniques and warnings. Thank you so much for stopping by!

      There are different recommended deaths for different areas of the face. I would definitely not be doing 1-2 mm underneath my eyes, for example.

Three areas I want to focus on and need the correct depth are under the eyes and in the marionette lines around the mouth and also the lines right between the eyes, the "11" lines.
