So I think I want to give derma rolling a try.... I want to do 0.5, is it effective? I was going to use it once a week. You can only apply it to the temples, correct? Can someone send me a link to a good 0.5 mm dermaroller? Please and thank you.

Hey

You can follow this guys advice.

(Start the video at 6:17 if you can't be arsed watching it all)

Although he uses 1.5 mm once a week. Since you are using a weaker version you can probably do it twice or three times a week.

I apply to the temples, and to my hairline. Some even do it for the top of their head but I don't know how that works.

Do you use the 0.5 mm or the 1.5? How long have you been using it for? Have you seen any results with it?

I started out with 1,5 mm. Twice a week. I don't know if I saw results with it or minoxidil because I was using both of them simultaneously. Although my temples did get a bit thicker so it might be because of the dermarolling. I also purchased a 0,5 mm one which I use when every now and then.

I was dermarolling religiously twice a week for about 1-2 months. But it makes your hair real dry and it even made some of my hair fall out (not as in thinning or balding, just fall out since I was pressing against the hair).

Alright, last question: i've been taking dutasteride, which has been giving me pimples on my forehead/temples. Should I wait for this to go away before starting to dermaroll?

Sorry bro I don't know anything about dutasteride. But I also use my dermaroller to get rid of pimples lol. When I roll on my pimples, the day after, they were gone. Not sure if it's safe tho or whatever, it just worked for me.

I doubt it's dangerous but I'm not sure.
