I used to struggle with severe pigmentation, and now my face is glowing. After consultation Dr Urvi suggested me to go for Cosmelan treatment. I was a bit hesitant to go for this but she made me understand the procedure in depth. I am genuinely happy and big thank you to Dr Urvi and the staff for helping me out, kuddos

FAQs

Frequently Asked
Questions

IS DERMAROLLER TREATMENT PAINFUL?

Despite the sound of dermaroller therapy, it's generally a comfortable experience. Topical anesthetic is applied to the treated area, minimizing the sensation of the micro-needles penetrating the skin.

HOW DOES DERMAROLLER TREATMENT WORK?

Dermaroller creates tiny punctures in the skin, triggering a healing response that stimulates cell renewal, collagen, and elastin production. This process rejuvenates the skin, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, marks, scars, and stretch marks.

HOW LONG UNTIL RESULTS APPEAR?

While an immediate plumping effect is noticeable, significant results may take up to six weeks as the skin undergoes its natural healing process.

IS DERMAROLLING SAFE?

For safe and effective treatment, it's crucial to seek care from regulated and qualified professionals. Our dermaroller treatment is conducted in sterile, clinical settings by experienced nurses and doctors following strict medical protocols, ensuring safety and efficacy.

AfterCare

Immediately After:
  • Avoid Touching: Try not to touch the treated area for a few hours.
  • Cool Compress: Apply a cool compress to reduce redness and swelling.
  • Avoid Irritants: Steer clear of harsh chemicals, perfumes, or makeup for a few days.
First Few Days:
  • Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild cleanser and avoid scrubbing.
  • Moisturize: Apply a lightweight, fragrance-free moisturizer.
  • Sun Protection: Wear sunscreen with a high SPF to protect your skin from the sun.
  • Avoid Heat: Avoid saunas, steam rooms, or hot baths.
Longer-Term Care:
  • Follow-Up Appointments: Attend your scheduled follow-up appointments.
  • Avoid Picking: Resist the urge to pick at any scabs or peeling skin.
  • Patience: Results may take time to appear.
Important:
  • Infection Risk: Keep the treated area clean to minimize the risk of infection.
  • Discomfort: Some redness, swelling, and mild discomfort are normal.
Individual Results: Results may vary depending on individual factors.

Collagen Induction Therapy, also known as the Derma Roller treatment, is a minimally invasive procedure that rejuvenates the skin by inducing collagen production. It utilizes a specialized roller composed of a hard wheel embedded with multiple ‘micro-medical’ needles. As the roller is applied over small sections of the skin, it creates tiny injuries on the epidermis, triggering the body’s natural healing process. This enhances collagen synthesis, improves blood circulation, and restores the skin’s natural youthfulness, resulting in a brighter and healthier complexion.

  • Reduces lines and wrinkles
  • Offers anti-aging treatments and skin rejuvenation
  • Heals acne scars and pitted scars
  • Refines skin texture and minimizes open pores
  • Reduces stretch marks

Procedure Overview

Aim

CIT aims to enhance collagen production, reducing fine lines, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation.

Preparation

A topical local anesthetic is applied to the treatment area to ensure patient comfort during the procedure.

Treatment Process

The affected area undergoes multiple passes with a derma roller to achieve the desired results.

Sessions

Optimal results may require two or more sessions, depending on the individual’s skin condition.

Areas for Treatment

Derma rollers can be used on various areas of the body, including:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Hands
  • Back
  • Legs

Who is a Good Candidate?

Individuals with acne scars or other types of scars, such as stretch marks, are ideal candidates for this treatment. CIT is effective for all skin tones and types, making it a safer option compared to laser treatments that may cause pigmentation issues. However, it is not recommended for those with:

  • Open wounds, cuts, or abrasions
  • Burned or sun-damaged skin
  • Eczema, psoriasis, or other skin conditions
  • Active acne
  • Recent radiotherapy treatments

Pain and Discomfort

Patients may experience mild discomfort during the procedure, often described as a scratching sensation. However, the use of a local anesthetic significantly reduces any pain.

Mechanism of Action

Derma rollers work by inducing controlled micro-injuries to the skin, stimulating natural healing and collagen production. This mechanism helps tighten, lighten, and rejuvenate sun-damaged and aging skin.

Risks and Side Effects

As with any cosmetic procedure, micro-needling carries some risks, including:

  • Temporary skin irritation
  • Redness for a few days
  • Chance of mild bleeding
  • Darkening of the skin
  • Bruising
  • Rare cases of fainting

Consult a dermatologist if you experience severe reactions to the procedure.

Expected Results

Improvements in complexion may take a few weeks to become noticeable, depending on skin type. Significant changes are often observed within 1-3 months with regular treatment sessions.
