The Dermaroller™ MC925 features advanced medically-engineered 2.5mm micro-medical skinneedles in an enhanced roller design to ensure optimum penetration, stimulation and patient comfort. It enables practitioners to enhance their treatment of thicker dermal areas, e.g. for acne scarring on the back or treatment of the abdomen and buttocks, particularly with respect to skin laxity and stretch mark improvements and fibrotic and thick scars, e.g. burns. The Dermastamp™ is a sterile single use medical device created to repeatedly puncture deep scarring and lines with maximum precision and minimum pressure. Using high quality 2mm micro-

medical skin-needles in a 5mm diameter circular arrangement, the Dermaroller™ Dermastamp™ is perfect for skin regeneration and scar repair for these previously difficult to treat areas. The multiple medical-needle-columns stimulate the regeneration of skin cells, blood vessels and collagen and also helps release tissue tethering the scar and lines. The Dermaroller™ Dermastamp™ is available individually or in a combination sterile pack with the Genuine Dermaroller™ MF8 1.5mm for the treatment of larger areas of skin that also features deeper scars and lines. The Genuine Dermaroller™ Dermastamp™ is available to all trained

Genuine Dermaroller™ practitioners and authorised Dermaroller™ clinics. Cosmetic surgeon Mr Chris Inglefied says, “Genuine Dermaroller is a significant part of the treatment for acne scarring, postsurgery scarring and scars following injuries including burns. At LBPS we combine Dermaroller™ treatments with skin peels and SkinCeuticals Blemish & Age serum. For skin rejuvenation and anti-ageing we combine Dermaroller™ with Growth Factor Serum and home use of SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF gel. Our signature facial treatment – Inglefield Facial, incorporates Dermaroller™ with JetMeso, Omnilux and Collagen mask for a luxurious anti-ageing treatment. Our Hair Restoration program utilizes in clinic Dermaroller™ treatments and home treatment with the Home Dermaroller™.”

I N N O - roller ( M edical A esthetic G roup ) One of the ways microneedling is now being used is in the treatment of hair loss. Under the direction of Dr Fernando Bouffard, Innosearch has used its knowledge and pharmaceutical experience to offer a fully integrated range of products based on the biology of the skin which work synergistically to produce genuine and visible results. The range includes effective topical, transdermal and oral solutions for a number of anti ageing problems including hair loss for and thinning hair for both men and women. INNO-ROLLER® is a line of solutions designed to be used with a dermaroller as an apparatus for transdermal delivery and the stimulation of cell renewal. The solutions have a unique combination of active ingredients which act specifically on the condition being treated including, hair loss, cellulite, anti ageing, scars and stretch marks. INNO-ROLLER Hair Revival contains active ingredients to stimulate micro circulation in the hair follicle and inhibit 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme responsible for hair loss. INNO-TDS® is a trans dermal release mesotherapy system that includes products formulated according to efficacy guidelines based on high concentrations of active ingredients that are highly effective yet safe for the skin. The range offers weight, cellulite, hair loss and anti-ageing solutions and includes INNO-TDS Hair Loss Control, which contains copper peptides to improve the hair micro-circulation and inhibit the production of dihidrotestosterone (DHT) responsible for hair loss. INNO-TDS Hair Loss Control increases hair thickness and supplies sufficient nutritive supplementation direct to the hair follicle. The application of the active ingredients to the base of the follicle combined with the stimulation from the mesotherapy, micro-needling technique, produces healthier hair and extends the anagen or growth phase of the hair cycle. For optimum results one treatment per week for eight weeks.

R oll - C I T ™ ( E N V I R O N ) The Roll-CIT™ from Environ® is the creation of Dr Des Fernandes, a South African Plastic Surgeon. Dr Fernandes conceived his original needling device over a decade ago; a small needle stamp to induce collagen formation and used it as a regular treatment in his surgical practice. He delivered his first clinical paper on skin needling of the upper lips to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) congress in 1996. Since then he has gone on to develop a range of needling products. The Roll-CIT™ is available in a Cosmetic model, which has a penetration depth of between 0.02-0.2mm, and in a Medical model with a needle length of 1mm, as well as a Surgical model with a 3mm needle length for more aggressive, professional treatments. Using both micro-needling technique and Environ’s topical vitamin skincare, the brand’s signature treatment is Collagen Stimulation Therapy ™, which they claim significantly enhances results compared with needling alone. It is indicated for wrinkles, acne scarring, slack skin, stretch marks and burn scars and can also be used to help tighten skin after liposuction. It has also been shown to significantly lighten pigmentation marks.
