Hi there,

First post here! Stumbled upon this forum after researching how to use a dermaroller properly.

I wanted to see if there have been positive experiences with members of this forum that have used dermaroller to help regrow hair?

I currently have a .5mm dermaroller and I use it only on my scalp every 2 days, after showering. Afterwards, I moisturize with argan oil. I literally just started this week.

I am a 31 year old male with a receding hairline.

Thanks for any advice!

By itself it's going to do little to nothing for hair growth. With hair growth topicals such as Minoxidil and others it should help.

Thanks Pandax.

I play on getting Rogaine and applying that after rolling.

I forgot to mention that I am also using Pura d'or shampoo. It supposedly has DHT blockers.

Not sure if you've seen this study combining dermarolling and Minoxidil:
