I have PCOS and aggressive endometriosis, which requires surgery every two years and has caused hormonal acne that my dermatologist couldn't control with ANY medication or treatment including Tretinoin. However, I discovered the Reedle shot about three months ago, and incorporating that with tretinoin since then has me free from any kind of acne, including hormonal acne. Last month I had three surgeries due to endometriosis and in the past just the sheer stress of surgeries caused my hormonal acne to flare up like no other and required antibiotics to control it. But this time I have ZERO acne. Being in my 30s I am not worried about foreign body granulomas showing up in another 60 years so I am willing to take my chances with this product because everything else has failed me. Also, the company stated very clearly that the reedles shed from our skin within 72 hours. If you choose not to believe that because of ONE doctor's opinion then that's up to you. This is my personal experience so don't come for me.

[@cw5451]

I’m glad you had positive results. I just started using the 100 strength of this product.

[@jaykim3711]

Hi Dr. Dray, I am a user of reedle-shot and I came across your video where you mentioned silica granulomas. This raised some concerns for me, so I decided to look into the matter further. Based on my research, there seems to be some disagreement regarding the potential for silica granulomas to develop from using reedle shot. Here are some key points to consider: 1. Crystalline vs. Non-crystalline(Amorphous) Silica Silica can be either crystalline or non-crystalline. The majority of studies linking silica exposure to granulomas have focused on crystalline silica. 2. Synthetic Crystalline Silica and Granulomas There is evidence regarding the development of granuloma from inhaling synthetic silica, but reedle shot is not a product designed for inhalation through the nose, nor could it be. 3. Toxicity of Non-crystalline(Amorphous) Silica There is currently limited research on the toxicity of non-crystalline silica, and no studies have specifically linked it to granuloma formation. 4. Non-crystalline Nature of Reedle-shot Spicules The spicules in reedle-shot are made from non-crystalline silica derived from the skeletons of marine sponges. Therefore, their potential to cause granulomas is considered to be much lower compared to crystalline silica. I believe it is premature and irresponsible to connect the use of reedle-Shot with silica granuloma. As an expert, if my opinion is incorrect, I would appreciate it if you could provide evidence linking the use of spicule or the application of non-crystalline(amorphous) silica on skin to cases of silica granuloma.

[@AlexaOleksa]

I mean, she said she is a bit paranoid and wants to be safe than sorry, and wants to see more research on this matter

[@user-gd3bb2pz7e]

She did not say that Reedle would cause granulomas, she was using the granulomas as an example of how silica embedded in the skin can react, even years later. It might not happen with Reedle but since spicules are a new treatment without information on long-term side effects I cannot fault her for being cautious.

[@catmoon7594]

It’s irresponsible to insinuate that with her platform though without any evidence but hearsay..

[@user-gd3bb2pz7e]

@@catmoon7594 I disagree, her voicing her potential health concerns about an unresearched product is actually really responsible. Anyone saying that they know that it is safe is the irresponsible one.

I shared apartment with a classmate during my uni years. One day, she started to have tiny bumps on the forehead. It went from just a few to literally no free space in about a couple months. When she barely touched them to cleanse her face, she felt painful neddles. Everybody said "Nah, deep pimples, they' ll mature, just wait." Getting an appointment with a pro derm for "a forehead break out" in the early 90' s? Sci-fi🤷🏻‍♀️. When she couldn' t stand the pain anymore, suddenly, one of the bumps spat a sharp crystal. It turned out that she had have a motorcycle accident 3 years ago and that micro pieces of broken glass had been living under her skin until the body was able to push them into the surface. This memory came into my mind at the speed of light when I knew about the spicles. What the hell can happen after x, y or z amount of time? 🤔😕... If you are wondering how the story ended, once her body expelled hundreds of pieces for months, she treated her terrible scars with ATO glycolic at 384% because she was lucky enough to have a family who could afford it in the pre-microneedling and laser era. 🧛🏻‍♀️🖤

[@officialMAMshow97]

the sponge spicules are very common in facials in Korea. I had a lot of facials with them with a high concentration back in 2017. It helped drastically reduce my scarring and acne and even helped my boyfriend with his pitted cystic acne scars. I actually interned at a company that does the facials and sells at-home kits with a lower concentration. I have never had anyone come forward with an adverse or foreign body reaction. I wish there were more studies to prove this though. But if you have already tried this product please feel a bit safer knowing my experience. Do try in the future with caution.

[@Vironica___VVV]

Thank you so much for this! I think the reason why a lot of koreans have really great skin is how advanced their products and treatments. I have pitted scars and do monthly microneedling and was thinking of buying VT reedle shot. Im now convinced with your comment and the other one who is a Polymer scientist.

[@Wintermarina]

And in Russia as well. It’s actually a powder, mix with water and put directly on the skin, clears up pigmentation.

[@ca678.4]

People won’t care because going by these comments if it’s not American made/ approved by an American entity they think it’s scary. That’s their right of course. But I think it’s a bit dramatic to call this “terrifying” Lip fillers and subscision is terrifying. Saint Ives scrub is terrifying. It’s no wonder Asian skincare is years ahead of the west

I’ve been waiting for you to review this for so long. 😭 You’re the only reviewer I’ve seen that’s addressed “how do the spicules get out of the skin/do they dissolve?” Not even the brand has addressed it, which is the scariest part. Qure Microinfusion review next please, a lot of dermatologist are endorsing it and would love to hear your thoughts. 🙂

[@gabiiibarricatti8999]

maybe they are removed when you wash your face?

[@DCSquirrel]

One of the reviews I watched stated they asked parent company and the spicules will be sloughed off with your exfoliated skin.

[@zaya2041]

@@gabiiibarricatti8999 If you are patting/tapping it into your skin like how I’m assuming it’s intended application for it is (based off how I see everyone applying it), the circular motions of washing your face doesn’t seem like it would dislodge them (unless they are sticking out of your skin) and maybe further push them in. 😕 And it’s not clear if the VT Reedles dissolve.

[@cyho88]

I also read that spicules dissolve within 72 hours. So there isn’t any damage to your skin. But I guess all skin types react differently to it.

[@waleskagracia4891]

Am anxious for an honest review on the Qure Microinfusion system, especially for those of us battling melasma. I see other Dermatologists endorse it, and kind of dismiss the concerns regarding triggering melanocytes. It’s confusing.

longterm safety was the exact concern that stopped me from placing an order. the fact that the hydrolysed sponge gets in together with the cica and other ingredients makes me uncomfortable - we wouldn't leave needles in our skin after every injection, why would we want an accumulation of sponge in it from regular skincare application?

[@save325]

Yeah, but does that because of this one?😂 I guess you are taking care of skin in general, and also using many product along with this one as well.

[@brbsnortingcatnip]

I'm obviously not the OP but since you seem to be implying that it must be something else they are using, I can say for me *personally,* improvements have been seen only with the addition of the 100 reedle version of this product. I have changed nothing other than adding it and have had others commented that my skin was looking good. I do not have good skin. I have cystic acne, melasma, and sensitive skin that tends to peel even if it's not irritated. The product does not claim to treat acne, but I have found at the very least that it has reduced it and what's more apparent to me is how quickly my zits have recovered. I had 2 that had just exploded the day before I started using it, which always leaves me with an open wound and really red marks that take a long time to fade. I've only been using it about a week but I only got one budding cyst yesterday that absolutely should be on fire right now, but it actually backed off and now I just feel the slight bump where it was. That just doesn't happen for me. Ever. If I am starting to get one, it's coming whether I like it or not, and no microdart patch or topical is going to prevent it. Maybe it's what actives are in the lotion, or maybe the reedles are helping my usual skincare absorb better, but something has definitely changed since I started using it.

This is the only topical product I have ever applied that actually worked in making noticeable improvements in my skin. IDK if it is the actual ingredients in this product or the fact that it is supposed to allow what you put on after to penetrate deeper, but I took before and after pictures, and the difference in overall skin texture, appearance of pores, deep wrinkles and especially the fine crepeness is dramatic. The before and after pics I took were about 2 weeks apart, and my friend noticed and commented on how good my skin looked and my husband did as well. The cashier at the grocery store couldn't believe I am in my 60s, same with my hairdresser. I don't know what it is doing, if it's just plumping or something deeper like they claim, but the results have been amazing for me.

I"ve been using this for over a week along with tretenoin and I've had zero issues. It is a bit tingly but nothing uncomfortable. As a former skin care professional I wouldn't say be terrified of the product but I appreciate your thoughts and everyone's skin is different :)!.

I’ve finally graduated to a weekly Vit C mask, I miss my glycolic acid but that’s not til late March… we’re having unusually low temps due to high winds, I figure I need to be proactive during winter, and it’s so sunny I’m spfing even more than usual (2 layers to start, reapply once or twice even when indoors…I’m spotty gotta be extra careful).

@@TS-ow3ch theres not enough data to show that it doesnt work either haha. personally, ive tried it: n it works! its dangerous but it works. aaaanyway, to each their own 🥰

[@CapriciousTarot]

@@terryfischer1070 She's also wrong it's stated the needles remove off the skin after 72 hours

[@elayneelizabeth6759]

Thank you for your review on this product. What you said makes sense and has helped me decide if to use or not.

[@lilo19951995]

I’ve been using it in the mornings followed by Dear Klair’s vitamin c for a couple weeks now and haven’t had any problems whatsoever, though I understand your concerns. I probably won’t repurchase it since I haven’t noticed any crazy awesome changes in my skin texture

[@13anana13ri]

I remember when Dr. Dray reviewed some of the Korean sunscreens and noticed how the ones she reviewed only had two filters and might not actually have SPF 50. Fast forward a few months from that we got the whole sunscreen scandal, which led many brands to reformulate their sunscreens. I was just about to purchase this product but definitely skipping it for now! Thank you Dr. Dray!!

[@SamFerro]

I think about that video at least once a month! Still impresses me how she casually noted that something seemed off about the limited number of filters several months prior to everything hitting the fan

[@monicali8569]

A lot of Korean stuff that the west knows are literally not even known in actual Korea. Many are also outdated old technology and ingredients. You need to really follow actual Koreans or ones that live or work in Korean beauty industry.

[@minoriruba1828]

​@@monicali8569 how do I know what actual Koreans are using?

[@iamjoycheee]

Can you share which video was it? There are tons of videos about sunscreen.

[@monicali8569]

@@minoriruba1828 by first following only Korean content creators. Otherwise it’s just second hand info , and also not truly understanding the culture , ingredients especially anything relating to eastern medicine which is such an important aspect to East Asian skincare. Odile Monod although not Korean, lives as works there and is the only english speaker that talks about all the og brands from when I was growing up. Others who talk more about lesser $ brands are euniunni , one eye beauty. There’s truly a huge difference once you listen to the ones that know what they’re saying.

❤❤Thanks Doc. I knew I could count on you. I will be steering clear ❤❤

[@Maggie22002]

Yes, I just rewatched your video on what are Spicules you posted last year on Valentine’s Day.

[@victoriavice2200]

Love this product, it changed my skin and I get incredible compliments. I will continue buying it.

[@endwithakiss4222]

Thank you for reviewing. ❤

Reviewing something she hasn’t tried? Or asked the company or did any other clinical testing on it?

[@arnoldhomer6268]

Thank you for giving more in depth about this product! I was looking for someone who can explain how those needles in this bottle work 🙂 and you did it. 👍👍👍

[@cececola]

Good information. I think it is important to get informed about new technology and truly useful.

[@raquelfigueroa5539]

Thank you for this review.

[@decayedspawn8101]

Dr Dray you never disappoint. ❤

[@hy4244]

Dear Dr Dray, you are the first KZbin I watch daily, pls continue to educate us. Love from Singapore

[@trixxylee6918]

I read about this the other day thought I would not use something that’s piercing my skin, thanks for confirming my thoughts

[@genshinF2Play]

i was waiting for this!!! im so worried about the complications that may arise from this!

[@LanguidAndBittersweet]

In 10-15 years I'll still be watching, Dr. Dray! I'm here for the long haul! 😂

[@lorimehrtens3552]

What a great review! I trust your judgement and appreciate your honesty.

[@chibialien57]

thanks Dr Dray for sharing your thoughts on this. I have the vt reedle shot 100 , been using it for a couple of weeks now. I only use it every other day as I feel it sensitizes my skin. Hopefully the company comes up with safety studies on this one in the future as it seems to be a promising product

[@jadeskinjoyce]

Thank you for such an informative video! I almost bought this and I have to think about it again!

[@aishahb8336]

Thank you so much for this video!! I was super curious about this product but wanted to understand more about how it would actually work

[@curryisgood6103]

thx for sharing. I wanted to order this today and now I am thinking if I still try it out because I am curious or wait a little bit to see if new research or longterm reviews come out. Defintely greatful that you mentioned potential risks and not only hype up the product like everybody else.

[@elennawong5552]

I was hoping to try this after so many people raved about it . Thx for the video !

[@soli5167]

I have been using 100,300, and 700 for around three weeks now. Rotating between them. I have quite bad hormonal acne, esp around my jaw area. After using reedle shot plus their masks for two three weeks, I’m so happy to say that my skin texture got so much better 😭😭😭 my acne along my jaw was a lot lesser or like it healed a lot faster. The reedles really helped with getting the products or the hydration into my skin. Not much side effects too. Only maybe if I use the 700 one on my neck it’ll make my neck too sensitive and be itchy. Other than that everything is amazing!! I have also been using their pdrn serum thing and I feel like they work really well with the reedle shots. No issues abt it poking my eyes or whatever too haha. I really love this product. Can’t wait to see how my skin will look in a month!

[@soli5167]

Also just found out that I’m allergic to benzoyl peroxide. Any alternatives u guys recommend? I might continue trying the Japan Pair acne cream

[@Angelica-fd]

Exactly on time, girl ❤ just for the last few days thought to research this hyped product. Thank you❤

[@prettyguyd138]

I was looking into it . I was like no thanks. I'll stick to my retin-a

[@DrDrayzday]

thanks for watching

[@mariamurray3959]

thank you for warning us

[@lauracuevas8948]

I will be listening to what you have to say in 15 years and beyond if I'm still present! Lingual stimulus from Dr. Dray is the best way to start my day. Thank you!🤩🥰🥳

[@iampinktea]

So glad you posted this! I was just getting ready to order this but I think I’ll hold off for the time being. If your thoughts on this product / spicules change please do keep us updated!

[@TattooedEngineer]

So glad a specialist is finally talking about it! I felt sceptical about it and it turns out for a reason! The whole idea of a product like that equals to rubbing your face with glass wool IMO.

[@LavenderCross75]

Ikr! Or slathering on some insulation in the walls of our homes. No ty

[@scottf23]

Your guidance with this product is appreciated. I had a feeling this might not be for me and your video confirmed my concerns.
