I tried dermarolling my ACNE SCARS! | Demo + Review

#dermarolling #ginamber #acnescars
ATTENTION! Please make sure you are disinfecting your dermarollers with 70% isopropyl alcohol and do a PATCH TEST first in case your skin has a bad reaction!!
Hello! In this video, I test how well a 0.5 millimeter-sized needle dermaroller will perform on my deep acne scars. I use specific lighting to get the best view on the indentations so you can get the best before and after shots.
I understand this size isn't meant to erase scars but I really wanted to see for myself if it makes any change at all. And now that I'm done testing it, I plan on moving up to the 0.75mm next.

For anyone concerned about the application of alcohol to the face:
I have looked into the possibly of over-drying your skin with alcohol but have found nothing relating to it.
I'm only wiping my skin with alcohol whenever I do microneedling treatments which isn't everyday, plus I use a super hydrating sheet mask afterwards so I personally have yet to experience any particular excess drying of my skin caused to my (infrequent) use of alcohol on my face.

[@2figuras]

Microneedling really works. My face was covered in scars (acne, chickenpox, and corrective surgeries). I had scars on top of scars. I had three surgical dermabrasions, countless ablative and non-ablative laser sessions, chemical peels, and other less aggressive treatments. I even had two partial facelifts when I was 24 and 26 years old because the plastic surgeon thought that the surgery would help make the scars less visible. The only treatment that actually made a difference was microneedling. Most of the scars are now gone and the existing ones are more shallow and less visible. I've been having one microneedling treatment every four weeks for two years. To this day it's hard for me to talk about my skin. I am sharing this hoping that it will be helpful to anyone who has been struggling with facial scars because I know how they can affect our lives.

[@thesearcher9416]

Thanks for the video, the results here are very good already! But as I know it the 0.5 dermaroller can be used every 2 days and not once a week. It would definitely make a difference for the healing process when you shorten the intervals and use the right serum for your skin (retinol, hyaluronic or vitamin c serum). After cleansing your skin first apply serum on your face then dermaroll your face. The needles will work the serum deeper into the skin and enable deep regeneration of the skin. Also apply serum again directly after dermarolling as the pores will be open for the first 15-20 seconds after needling. I can also recommend to use a photon mask with blue and red light to kill bacteria (blue light) and help rejuvenation (red light) of the skin. It's a much softer but effective method.

I see a big difference. I'm getting ready to start dermarolling myself. The overall look of your skin really changed. Dermarolling cracks off that top layer of dead skin cells which makes a huge difference in the overall appearance of your skin. I would say for a .5 those are some pretty incredible results

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

I agree! When I tried the 0.75 after almost 2 months for the first time, my skin was looking even better than at the end of this video! Time is key!

[@NotLikeUs17]

First and foremost you’re really pretty and your skin looks so healthy it’s glowing. I’ve struggled with my pitted boxcar scars and it’s awful. Tried dermarolling but I think it works better on rolling scars. The only difference I noticed is that the day after my rolling sessions is that my scars would appear diminished the next day because of the swelling and once that subsided 2-3 days it basically looked the same. So while I believe this technique works really well for rolling scars, it doesn’t do much for boxcar scars which is in part caused by tissue loss from cystic acne.

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Aw, that's really sweet. Thank you!! 😊 I'm honestly not sure what type of scars mine are. I don't think they're ice pick. Maybe boxcar? Although I always thought it was called rolling boxcar. 🤔 Also, I recently noticed that my scars always look so much better every morning but it's apparently because I wake up with a bit of a swollen face which is kinda disappointing haha but I do believe I am seeing an improvement in my scars since I first started dermarolling. 😄

Definitely see a difference. I also have scarring from acne from when I was younger. My skin was horrendous. I have had laser acne scars removal twice now and I am getting microneedling done professionally on Dec 30th, very excited. Thank you for this video. Very courageous. You are beautiful btw ❤

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

That's very sweet, thank you! 🤗 How were your laser treatments? I'm always curious about other methods. I'm also excited for your microneedling session! Best of luck to you! 😁🙌

[@erinhayward921]

​@@ThatGirlwiththeCurls laser scar removal just kind of feels like someone is taking an elastic band and snapping it against your face over and over. It's a little painful, but totally worth the results. Highly recommend

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

@@erinhayward921 Ah, so it is similar to laser hair removal then! Interesting, I was told it feels like a rubber band snapping against my skin but boy did I wish how true it was for me! It hurt so bad that I would hyperventilate haha. 🤣😅

[@PapiEson]

I just came back to watch again your journey started from your skin condition in this video up to the latest. I’m happy for the improvements of your skin right now, but I’m still amazed of with or without scars, you still beautiful and your personality catches our heart. Keep grinding for the self development. Much love from 🇵🇭

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Aw, thank you so much for following me on this journey! I appreciate your words of encouragement! 😁🤗😆

_Friendly tip: Make sure to cover the well/container, during any alcohol soak. Rubbing alcohol evaporates quickly & loses effectiveness._ 👍🤓❤️

[@meltingdragon2220]

Your video helped me so much! I will go for my first microneedling treatment soon and knowing that this stuff indeed can improve the skin made me so much more optimistic! The side by side comparison showed huge improvements! And you look absolutely stunning, the scars don't take away from that

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Aw, that's so sweet, thank you! 🤗 I'm excited for you! This is something I'm still experimenting with but consuming collagen (whether it's through supplements or bone broth) might be something worth looking into for an extra boost!

[@torinh3689]

Wow the results 🙌🏽 I didn't expect it to work, so I'm happy for you!

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Thank you! Hoping to see more changes soon!

[@lindisaster]

hi! a couple things: you shouldn‘t go above 0.5 in the face as a non-professional (0.75 is fine for body scars like stretch marks but even on the body you shouldn‘t go above that). you also shouldn‘t rub alcohol over your face, that just dries up your skin. instead use a good hydrogenic acid or vitamin c serum. i can see big improvements from your before/after shots - keep going, it‘s clearly working!

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Yay, thank you! I do not believe alcohol is over-drying if used in a controlled manner. We see professionals always using alcohol when dealing with needles. I personally have never had any drying issues, especially since the sheet mask I apply afterwards super hydrates my face.

[@ellymichael1202]

Your skin looks amazing!!!!! There is a BIG difference after 7 weeks….. I am so inspired. Thank you for this demo ❤

[@SuperEtab]

Imagine rolling that over a face with an acne outbreak? Would pop everything.

First, your hair is adords!!! I miss having a perm. 2nd, your skin is noticably better (to me) in the 7-9 weeks with .5 roller. I've wanted to try this skin care routine so thanks for sharing!

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Naw, thank you so much! Best of luck! 😆

[@markchang5285]

I salute your courage and honesty! Only professional work can help, and even then, the scars will never disappear. The only thing we can do is reach a point in which we are comfortable with our appearance.

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

I very much agree. Even if I don't get the results I want, life is too short to use up all my time on worrying so much about acne scars.

[@FZAChannel]

This is such an important video. We all suffer from acne scars. Please post the 0.75 video along with the 1.0 derma roller video. You are such a honest reviewer. Thank you for showing before and after with the light, this was the key factor

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

I most certainly will! Thank you!

[@RB-jb9kk]

Your face looks great even before doing the derma rolling for all the acne you had. You should be proud of it. Also thank you for making this video because I have one acne scar on my chin and it’s an indentation and this made me realize that I can try the derma roller for it. Hoping I get great results like you. Again, thanks so much!!!

[@juniorleslie9494]

I was about to leave until you said you have had acne for about 5 years, and that caught my attention. Because I was that kid that didnt want to get on the bus on my way to school because of what people might see, think, and say. I'm happy you've made this video.❤

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Haha, and I'm happy you stuck around! 😆 Acne sucks but it's always good to know there are others out there and we're not alone!

[@riksinha5]

I used to have scars on my face, I used 0.5mm on my skin for 3 months, 3 times a week. And then followed by Vitamin c serum at night. And on the following day I used retinol 0.05 on my face. I used to feel and it was really flaky for few months. And then after 3 months ,I got rid of almost 80% scarring. So gurl! You got it here. I mean I used nothing except that. And don't forget to use SPF 60 sunscreen. And try to stay away from sunlight as much as possible. And remember drink lots of water. And green tea for healthy skin. I used no other beauty products or makeup on my skin. Since ,I was in home, I didn't had to worry about flaky skin. Use gentle gel based cleanser, and exfoliator to get rid of dead skin. And you will be amazed to see the reasult. And use dermaroller with gentle pressure , I used it to the point I just didn't bleed.😂😂 I have tough skin lol. So, use it, and I used more than 7 rolls on each side. I used it for like 10 rolls on each side.

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Thank you for your great advice! I'm so glad to hear you got rid of so much scarring! I definitely do try to drink as much water as I can and stay the heeeck away from the sun. I've also started rolling 10x as well 🤣

[@Juliana-f4f]

Girl there is a huge difference. I know you may not notice, but to me it looks so much improved. Keep on keeping on love.,

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Thank you! I shall keep going!! 🤗❤️

[@Mike-tf4ke]

Just wanna say you're really beautiful and for me at least I'm attracted to women with some scarring. I had a long struggle with acne myself and have some significant scars, so it makes me feel more comfortable and gives some mutual understanding of the internal struggles that can be associated with that. So keep trying to be the most happy and confident version of yourself, but keep in mind that whatever happens there will be people who love your little marks because they show that you persevered. Each one shows your strength. Strength of character is the most important thing, more important than perfect skin

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Aw, that's really sweet. I agree with you 100%! When people tell me they want to do something about their skin condition to please others, it makes me sad and I tell them to only do it if THEY want to. Not for others. Thank you so much for sharing such a powerful message! 😁🤗

I love how you replying to everyone. I have a one question which serum or moisturizer should i use after derma rolling bc someone told me that it works way faster when we use serum afterwards

Hi! Check out Gin Amber's website (linked in my description box) for the best serums/masks to use after dermarolling!

[@geniusplanet9770]

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

You're very welcome and good luck to you! 👍👍👍

[@get.grounded3858]

keep going, you must give it more time to heal in between. More than .5 eventually, possibly professionally...I understand there is so much mixed info out there. Give it 1.5 months, than again, and so on...I would also urge you to try cocoa, shea, LAVENDAR essential oils, and other eo's that are capable of cell regeneration. Lavendar can heal burns ( I had 3rd degree ) & scarring. & remember always use a carrier oil. Yours are deeper, and they will take time but I believe you can heal alot of your scarring. Just stick with it for a long time. Maybe 1-2 years. I feel even with a 1mm that less use is more, we need to give our skin time to heal. Stay hydrated, and try wheatgrass juice inside, and the pulp outside. & remember just keep trying different natural healers after rolling because what works for one may not work for another so don't get discouraged. You got this. 🙂

[@amenRAamen]

Lavender oils? That won't do your face any favor. Essential oils on the face is super bad for your skin.

[@BettysGlam]

Although only slight, but I do see a difference in the before/after. Give it more time because 7 weeks cannot undo a lifetime of scarring. Thanks foe the video hun!❤

[@ThatGirlwiththeCurls]

Yay, you're welcome! Ya, eefinitely more sessions with lots of patience and time is needed!! 😅
