Description
Derma rollers are a type of massage device that use long, thin needles to stimulate the skin. They are generally safe to use, but may cause some pain or discomfort depending on the size of the needles used. Some people may need to use numbing cream to make the experience more comfortable. Derma rollers are not recommended for people with certain skin conditions, such as active infections, chronic skin disorders, blood clotting problems, or skin malignancies.
