Would love some feedback on people who have done either dermaroller or a lactic acid peel, or both?
I did buy a .5 roller a while ago and used once, got very red after but it healed well. It hurt quite a bit so I never felt inclined to do it again!!
I am thinking of trying a Lactic Acid peel, 35%.
Which would be better? I have also bought some numbing cream.
No major issues, sag mainly around jowls. Some pigmentation between eyes and cheekbones. Some very slightly pitted texture on one cheek (even though I have never had acne?)
So, should I go with the peel or the dermaroller? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks. |

| They are completely different treatments. The lactic peel would be helpful for your pigmentation but wont address your other issues. I am not sure if the .5 roller is long enough to produce the changes you are looking for. IIRC you need atleat 1.0. |

thanks for the reply GG..
so if they are two completely different treatments , could I do both? at different times of course!
I don;t think I could stand a 1.0 dermaroller, I struggled with the .05
any one else any opinions please |

| It would be not to do both close together, even though they are different they both irritate the skin. You could probably roll one month and then a peel a next month. |
