Have you ever wondered what else you could do to your skin at home to give it that WOW factor?

We have a solution! An AT-HOME MICRO-NEEDLING SYSTEM, the Skin-Inject Derma Roller. You may have experienced or heard about skin needling before, at a beauty salon or dermatologist.

Skin Needling manipulates the skin's healing responses in order to renew and rejuvenate the skin. The Derma Roller uses the same mechanism, but in a gentler form, using 0.25mm micro-needles.

What are the benefits of using a Derma Roller?

There are so many amazing benefits of using a Derma Roller:

Improves Collagen
Helps reduce appearance of scars
Improves penetration of products into the skin
Prevents premature skin ageing
Targets fine lines and wrinkles
Helps reduce appearance of enlarged pores
Targets pigmentation and uneven skin tone
Leaves skin refreshed, revived
Reveals an awakened complexion

How to use a Derma Roller and is it painful?

One of the best aspects of the Skin Inject Derma Roller is that it's effective and extremely comfortable. It can easily and quickly be done - it only takes 5mins before you go to bed!

To get started:

1. Cleanse the skin and pat it dry
2. Rollover your face, neck and décolletage at night before bed
3. Follow with your serums and moisturiser

The Derma roller creates small channels over the skin to increase the penetration of your serum so, as you gain confidence using the Derma Roller and for best results, do this sequence:

1. Cleanse your skin
2. Apply a corrective serum
3. Rollover face, neck and décolletage
4. Follow with moisturiser

The Skin Inject Derma Roller can be used 2-3 times a week.

Which serum should I use?

You can use any serum that targets your skin concerns.

Our recommendation to begin with is a hydrating serum.

For advanced users, a serum targeting breakouts, ageing or pigmentation can be used during the rolling process.
