On a Roll

At-home derma rolling is on trend, and there are dozens of skin rollers on the market that promise to increase collagen, lift and firm skin, decrease inflammation, and help serums and other skincare products get where they are needed most. In general, a derma roller is rolled over the skin so that small needles puncture the skin. Some popular rollers are made from jade, rose quartz, and amethyst.

But derma roller users beware, says Jeanine B. Downie, MD, FAAD, director of image Dermatology PC in Montclair, NJ. “I don’t see any benefits using them.” What’s more, face rollers need to be cleaned well because they carry bacteria. Never use your skin roller after injections because of the risk of bacteria.

“They are supposed to press product into the skin, but it is better to use your hands to rub in serums, sunscreens, anti-aging products and acne medication.”

The bottom line? “Face rollers are not necessary.”
