How often do you have to use a new derma roller? Does it have to be replaced often?

I use the roller when I notice my skin is looking dull and blah and my pores appear larger. I'd advise once you get the roller use it 1 a week until you get use to it because it's and awesome product if use according to how your skin responds to it then lessen use as skin needs it. I'm light skinned African American who's 44 yrs of age. My skin is reddened for about 10 min after use, then I use toners and moisturizers shortly after to soak in to my skin while my pores are open and expose. This insures maximum absorption. I always notice my results the next day. My daughter uses for cellulite too. I hope I answered all your questions because when was looking for more information about the product I didn't have much luck I just tried it by chance and loved it.

As long as you aren't using too much pressure - which might cause the needles to break off - it will last a very long time. Just be sure to clean and properly dry after each use. Mine still looks in pristine brand new condition, but i'm VERY meticulous about proper cleaning and usage.

I've used mine on stretch marks about once, sometimes twice, a week. The instructions that came with mine said it should be replaced every 6 months.

It all depends how often you use it. I'm currently using the original pads and I use it weekly . It just needs washing and it's good as new .

Not really certain how many times to use it. I read women use it daily, but it is recommended no more than 3 times a week. Use a cream with vitamins A & E to absorb into the skin after rolling.

I replace it weekly. It depends on your beard. Mine is on the light side of average.

It is really your preference on how often you want to derma roll. Instructions typically say about once every three weeks since it takes about 39 days to start producing collagen again. I personally have used the 0.5 derma roller once a week and in the time I have used it, have started seeing results. The main thing is to be patient and continued use and you will see results. This is a small investment for excellent results. I went to my beauty consultant for a new fall look and she commented on how great my skin looked. It is worth it.

I have used mine a lot and it is still in good condition but ordered some replacements as backups. I turn in on low and use an old soft bristled toothbrush and lightly run it across the roller and it really cleans it nicely.

It is recommended to replace them every 3 months. The acne cleansing heads are for sensitive skin. I have rosacea and use the acne one because it is more gentle on my skin.

I replace my brush about every 6 months. According to anything you read, your supposed to replace the brush, probably every 30-60 days, however, I use the brush as directed, w/o much pressure (but some, of course), and my bristles are straight and in great shape for an extended amount of time. I feel that I get a significant amount of life out of every brush -better than I initially expected. Additionally, I have tried off-brand brushes, and I have not had a good experience. The off-brand brushes had considerably less power than the Philips brand brushes.

I was using mine every other day to start out, but it really depends on how much pressure you apply when using it. If all you are getting is some general reddening of the area, every other day is fine. If you are more aggressive and getting pin-prick bleeding (which would be a bit much for the delicate area around the eye), I would give the skin at least a week or more between rolling so it has a chance to heal and bring collagen to the area.

On the one unit that actually works I haven't had to replace it yet and that's been since end of December. I've only used the face brushes not the body ones, so I can't answer that part.

I change mine about every 6 months, but I only use it at work. It doesn't get everyday or all day use.

Hello, we don't recommend using the derma wand and derma roller at the same time. I would suggest alternating between the two on a weekly basis.

Hi Mary, I've only used mine a couple of weeks so I'm not sure, but the roller still seems brand new. I just blow it off and clean with the brush they send and I foresee it lasting several months at the least.

Derma roller stimulates collagen production without damaging and irritating the skin. It has a few days downtime. Chemical peels and microdermabraion irritate the skin, and they require 2 to 4 weeks recovery time. Also they do not trigger collagen production.
