What is Dermaroller?
Dermaroller is a micro-needling treatment that significantly improves the appearance of various skin imperfections. Also referred to as skin rollers, micro-needle rollers, or dry needling, this technique is highly effective in reducing fine lines, wrinkles, pore size, and acne scars, while also improving skin texture and tone. Dermaroller treatments at JR Medical are safe, minimally invasive, and tailored to achieve natural, long-lasting results.
The process is adapted from acupuncture, where fine needles penetrate just beneath the skin to trigger regeneration. By creating controlled micro-injuries, the treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping the skin heal and renew itself. This boost in collagen not only enhances skin radiance but also improves the effectiveness of skincare products.

What to Expect During a Dermaroller Treatment
Your Genuine Dermaroller Therapy session begins with the application of a topical numbing cream to the treatment area, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure. Once the skin is numbed, a micro-medical roller with fine needles is gently rolled over the skin to stimulate its natural healing and regeneration processes.
The tiny needles create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface, which triggers a natural healing response. As a result, new blood vessels form, and collagen production increases, leading to brighter, healthier, and younger-looking skin over time.
How Many Dermaroller Treatments Are Needed?
For Collagen Induction Therapy, we recommend an initial course of three treatments, spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart. For Scar Reduction Therapy, 3 to 5 sessions are typically advised, with an expected improvement of 70-80%. Unlike some other skin treatments, Dermaroller therapy can be safely applied to various areas of the body, including the neck, décolleté, arms, and legs.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Dermaroller therapy has minimal side effects and requires no downtime, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles. You may experience some mild redness or irritation immediately following the treatment, but this typically subsides within a few hours. Unlike more aggressive procedures like laser treatments, the recovery time with Dermaroller is short, and the results are long-lasting. However, while Dermaroller repairs existing skin damage, it does not prevent future ageing.
At JR Medical, all Genuine Dermaroller and Dry Needling Therapy treatments are performed by fully trained and experienced medical professionals, ensuring the highest standards of care and safety. During your consultation, our experts will guide you through the process and develop a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired results.
