DERMA ROLLER INSTRUCTION (MEMBERS ONLY)

Hi, this is Frank, founder of JJ ELLIE. First of all, thank you for choosing JJ ELLIE.

Here is the quick instruction on how to use a derma roller for your needs. I really want you to read first before using your roller.

For Skincare

The primary purpose of using a derma roller for skincare is to increase your topical products' absorption rate. As you might know, the industrial standard for the topical products' absorption rate is usually 0.2% to 0.4%. But those absorption rate is considered very minimal to see the effectiveness. To increase your skincare products' effectiveness, it must be either higher % of active ingredients or increased the absorption rate (but it can’t be since it is not topical products are not medical products). 

However, you can increase of absorption rate by using your derma roller. Here is the instruction on how to use it.

1. You must sanitize your roller before and after.
2. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser. At this point, we do not recommend any AHA or Scrub products.
3. Dry your face with a towel. 
4. Roll your derma roller on your desire area with horizontal, vertical, and diagonal. You should not press hard. Gentle pressure is good enough.
5. Usually, 1-2 minutes is enough time to roll on your face. 
6. After derma rolling, please use your topical products (Right after derma rolling is the biggest chance your topical products could absorb better and deeper).
7. Repeat the process 2 to 3 times per week. Depends on the skin type, it requires more than 24 hours of healing time.
8. Register the 30 Days management Program that will set up your scheduling for the derma rolling and send you the reminder call. Also, you can contact to the management team directly.

For Hair & Beard Growth

The main purpose of using a derma roller for regrowing hair would be collagen reproduction. A lot of people might think it still be beneficial for using topical products with Derma roller. This is true, but it all depends on what topical products you are using. 

Depends on your topical products, derma rolling scheduling will be different. 

If you are using natural hair/beard growth product, please follow the instruction below. 

1. You must sanitize your roller before and after.
2. Wash your beard or hair with a gentle cleanser.
3. Dry your hair.
4. Roll your derma roller on your desired area with horizontal, vertical, and diagonal (You must roll on the skin or scalp. NOT HAIR).
5. Apply your natural topical products for the purpose of use after derma rolling.
6. If you are using Minoxidil, try to use the minoxidil 24hours after derma rolling. 
7. If you are using Minoxidil, 3% is ideal for women and 5% is ideal for men. 
8. Repeat the process 2 to 3 times per week. Depends on the skin type, it requires more than 24 hours of healing time.
9. Register the 30 Days management Program that will set up your scheduling for the derma rolling and send you the reminder call. Also, you can contact the management team directly.
