The Medik8 Dermaroller is a fantastic device which is able to naturally activate collagen and elastin production in the skin without causing any damage. This 0.3mm is recommended for home use and both men and women can use this revolutionary tool which provides a number of beneficial results:
- Scar reduction / acne scar reduction / pitted scar reduction
- Anti-ageing
- Reducing Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Overview
Skin Needling provides results similar to Laser Resurfacing, Fraxel® and Chemical Peels but at a fraction of the cost and with minimal or zero downtime. The ‘Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller’ creates a multitude of tiny puncture wounds to the dermis which induces the release of growth factors that stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin. Creating dermal damage without removal of the healthy epidermis, as with other resurfacing techniques, means the healing time is rapid and does not cause any comparable pain. Results are quick and will last.
Unlike ordinary stainless steel dermarollers, Medik8 microneedles are made in the EU and are precision-engineered from titanium, which is an extremely hard metal that does not pit or become damaged like stainless steel after use. This means that there is no tearing of the skin which could cause scarring. Best of all, Medik8’s Titanium Dermaroller is no more expensive than ordinary dermarollers and you can select from an entire range of dedicated Medik8 serums to suit your skin type.
The Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller is a convenient multipurpose device used for the treatment of various skin conditions such as wrinkles, scars, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, cellulite and stretch marks.
It is a cylindrical barrel with precision engineered titanium microneedles which penetrate the top layers of skin without causing damage or bleeding. This accurate and minimally intrusive penetration allows much higher absorption of topical formulations, such as Medik8 serums and creams. It may also stimulate skin’s self-repair and regeneration as it can stimulate the skin’s healing response.
In contrast to many other skin renewal treatments, such as chemo- and dermabrasion or laser resurfacing; treatment with the Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller does not destroy the upper layers of the skin to induce collagen growth. Instead, the Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller induces collagen synthesis by creating micro-punctures in the epidermis without compromising its integrity, without a prolonged down time and without a high risk of complications. Finally, the Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller is also the most cost-effective way of effective skin regeneration when compared to other therapies. The Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller is a breakthrough tool, simple in design and yet yielding superb results. It has been hailed as “The magic wand of skin care”.
Furthermore, each individual Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller microneedle is gold plated to maintain sterility. This technology produces extremely accurate and pinpoint punctures in the skin, with the aim of improving the treatment results, while ensuring user health and safety. No other dermaroller is made with titanium needles, so only the Medik8 Titanium Dermaroller can be reused intensively for 3-6 months.
