What are the risks and cons that accompany microneedling?
Just try as much as possible to be careful with which derma roller you buy. The real ones have needles that have a consistent diameter throughout. However most you will find online are not actually needles as I described, but are blades that have sharp tips, and then become wider closer to the base. These can be dangerous as the harder you push, the larger of a hole you are making in your face. Unfortunately I have been using a derma roller with these blades, and although I have noticed an improvement with fine lines and wrinkles, I also noticed very small slice type scarring on my cheeks.
I really don’t have an exact answer for your question. Are you getting it done at a cosmetic dermatologist or esthetician? Also I think it will be a bad idea to try microneedling done if you have history with Keloid scars! Your skin might, as it might not tolerate micro-needling.
