Derminator on steroid-related body building stretchmarks

The customer used a 2 mm needling depth for three sessions, 15 days apart. This is what he posted: "I got these scars on my bicep area from very rapid body weight increase when I was a young lifter, probably before most of you were born. My skin, literally split when I added 9 stone in the first year.
Anyhoo, I put up with the scars for many a decade. Then I recently heard about women micro-needling scars they got from child birth, I thought, I will give this a go on my scars. Gonna work on the biggest scar at the top of the photo, that is very near my armpit and harder for me to reach. This really is my left bicep, it does look like a leg...it ain't"

Derminator before photo

This customer is a 65-year old female who was delighted with the improvement she achieved after just a few months of treatment with our Derminator® machine. She wrote us that she achieved great improvement in sun damage, lines, large pores and discoloration. More recent photos taken with a better camera are forthcoming. Photos reproduced with permission. More photos submitted by our customers: Dermaneedling before and after photos.

Her facial skin looks ten years younger. Improvements resulting from dermaneedling are assumed permanent, since the entire skin structure has been replaced and renewed by the own body under the influence of micro-injuries to the skin. Our Derminator® uses a sensor to digitally keep the correct needling depth and thus obtain a perfectly smooth result. Manual rolling or using a cheap, weak Chinese-made analog device can never yield such spectacular results in such a short time.

Our Derminator machine is louder than the puny Chinese devices because those really are permanent makeup machines in disguise and lack the power to penetrate the skin and cause microtearing. A still realistic price for our skin needling device and our needle cartridges would be ten times what we sell it for now, and it would still be the #1 choice for clinics and professionals. There exists no machine remotely like it. The Derminator has been fully designed and produced in our own facilities by our own employees. It contains a microprocessor with advanced software that took half a year to develop and refine. It has an extremely sensitive Hall-effect sensor made by Honeywell and it contains the most powerful small magnet that can be mass-produced in a modern factory. Only the Derminator is able to needle consistently at a digitally set depth, regardless of local variations in mechanical resistance of the skin. The Derminator constantly measures actual needling depth and shows it on its display.

Acne scars - single treatment - 2019

Hi! I’m going to talk about this product forever! Thank you so much! I have dealt with severe acne and then the scarring for over a decade. Nothing worked - chemical peels, retin A, dermaroller, NOTHING. I am prone to hyperpigmentation so I’m afraid of laser treatments. I also think the dermaroller made my skin worse. I ordered this as a last resort and I prayed it would work. I have only done ONE treatment and it was about 3 weeks ago. My scars are more shallow, dark marks are so much more faded, and my skin is more plump and even toned. My marks have never ever faded this quickly. Ever. I used to be ashamed to go out without any makeup. I still have a ways to go with my treatments, but I’m already much more confident and happy to have finally found something. Thank you so much!!!!

The pictures are right before I microneedled and 2 weeks after microneedling. The lighting is different because of the sunlight, but I was in the same position both times. There’s nothing on my face in any picture. I started on 1.25 and then 1.5 and then briefly 1.75 on my really severe and deep scarring. I also used a copper peptide serum while needling, and used the serum and organic hemp oil to moisturize afterwards. My husband is amazed and I’m ecstatic!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

These scars were the result of an IPL laser burn. The laser was set too high. The burns happened in Sept. 2009 and the picture is from one year afterwards, in June 2010.

This picture is from March 2011, after five months of needling. The customer is very happy with the results and posted them originally on our forum.

Dermarolling before and after pictures - 4

This photo is taken before microneedling, but after acid peels that had no significant result. The photo is taken under halogen illumination inside a bedroom.

And this photo is taken one and a half year later, in September 2010, outside in a sunny garden. The photo was taken six weeks after her last needling.

She has needled her stretch marks every 4-6 weeks for one and half years and she will continue. She has used a 1.5 mm dermaroller and the single needle, topical vit. C and Infadolan. She densely needled the stretch marks from different angles, to various depths up to 2 mm with quite some pinpoint bleeding. No other treatment was employed. Stretch marks are still there but the overall improvement is amazing. The stretch marks tanned for the first time since they had formed. (The straight red lines are caused by swimsuit pants). The photos are not manipulated in any way.

This picture is from her blog. She bought our dermarolling products. "Sarah and John Vaughter" can be made out on the instructions:

This is a picture after three rolling sessions and two agressive single-needlings:

Such improvement usually takes more needling sessions. Click on the picture for an enlargement.

The next customer's photos are of a vaccination scar, treated with the single needle. The scar is 35 years old.

The same vaccination scar immediately after needling with the single needle:

And here is the same vaccination scar after four needlings, one months apart. The photo is taken five weeks after the last needling. The hardened collagen scar tissue is mostly gone and the scar tanned for the first time since it had formed. She has used the single needle, topical vit. C and Infadolan. The scar is much less visible now. No other treatment was employed.

The middle photo was taken inside, the others outside in full summer light.

You can use single needling to improve both atrophic and hypertrophic scars, stretch marks, surgical scars (including liposuction, breast augmentation and tummy tuck scars), scars resulting from accidents including burn scars, acne scars, etcetera. You should not use it on keloid scars.

You can also improve individual wrinkles, especially the ones between the eyebrows and on the forehead.

The needle has to be very thin with a long taper. Our single needles are custom made according to our own design.

The "stretchmarked" skin is usually thinned both in the epidermis and the dermis (skin layers). Stretch marks/scars usually have abundant collagen in them but that collagen is in the form of a scar - the collagen layout is different from that in normal skin and the elastin fibers are abnormal as well.

Pricking the stretch marks densely with a single needle will crush the hardened collagen bundles and that should smoothe the texture of the stretch marks and make them less bright and shiny. With repeated needling, the indented scars fill up a little. Although the scar will never completely disappear.

If you are lucky, the repeated micro injuries caused by pricking the skin will make the stretch marks heal with a better collagen layout and a fiber configuration that is a little more "normal skin"-like. Old scars usually have poor blood supply. Needling often triggers angiogenesis - the growth of new blood vessels. Needling can also induce melanocyte production and that will enable the stretch marks to tan or partially tan. All this is individual, so we can't give hard guarantees.

If your stretch marks are very shallow (unfortunately, most of them are not), they could even disappear entirely but so far, no current method can totally remove deep stretch marks. All we can do is improve them over time. Remember - there are no silver bullets or magical solutions. All real improvement takes time, effort and the endurance of some pain.
