...I've been pretty lax with my dermarolling and minoxidil application. Can't remember the last time I used my dermaroller/pen and I fall asleep on the couch before I've put minoxidil in on a regular basis...
...i became lazy and stoped my treatment for 2 months, and i lost all my hair pretty quick... will start new experimental treatment...
I've completely dropped microneedling... starting to lose ground...
SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT DROPPING
I'm continuously blown away by you guys getting HRT-tier results on non-hormone-f**king treatments, just to then proceed dropping / changing your regimens:
I'd give my right arm to get gains remotely resembling your ballpark, and cut off the other one before even considering to skip a single session... XD

Hi guys, a question about the procedure. I have a Dr Pen A6, just started yesterday on 1.25mm, do you press hard on your scalp as you do it? Obviously it hurts more and goes further in, but I wonder if the 1.25mm setting means that just by placing it normally on your head it’s 1.25mm or you have to press it down hard for it to be 1.25mm.
hopefully that wasn’t too confusing and wordy. Any help would be appreciated

I used to just sort of let it glide over my scalp when was using a pen, it tended to get stuck if i applied a lot of pressure. I haven't really needled in a while but im just using a roller these days
Yep I made the decision to drop needling as my crown was starting to thin again. First picture below is with needling every week and 2nd pic is no needling but mixing 1% of sandalore to 1ml of minoxidil. Gaining ground back slowly

Yeah. I am trying with 1.5 with a D2 when the redness goes away, which is looking like every 6 days or so. But it does hurt. Does anyone use a numbing cream?
I have used a numbing cream but the issue is that it gets stuck inside the D2 heads, so you end up cleaning it off anyways. Just take a Tylenol and go watch a show while you're doing it - the distraction will make you feel the pain a bit less.
Ever since covid-19, I have been unable to cut my hair, so I'm not sure if I've made any progress. My hair is huge now and if I take a picture it would look like I have completely regrown all my hair back, which isn't the case.
I'm not sure the Follica protocol is giving me much results. Maybe this is as much regrowth as I'm going to see.

Ordered a Dr Pen yesterday. I'm excited to give this a shot. I have already had one transplant, and will likely need more, so the less grafts needed for a future transplant, the better.
This thread definitely shows not too stop the needling once you get results lol. Looks like it's a lifetime thing.

So i Have 2 dermaneedling questions"
-Will using a numbing cream impact my results? I just did my first round with Dr Pen and it hurt way more than I anticipated. I did horizontal, then vertical, and skipped the diagonals. If it's "no pain, no gain" I'll push through, but that was not pleasant at all.
-Can I just put the whole 12 needle attachment in some disinfectant (plastic and all), or do I just wash the needles with it? I poured the alcohol over the needles a few times, but there is still some stuff on it.

Sorry do you mean you're mixing 10mg Sandalore powder into 1ml minoxidil?

I tried searching on the forum but was unsuccessful so dropping the query here. Has anyone tried topical dutasteride mixed with minoxidil? Or even topical fina in that case?

Hello what is sandalore ? And how does it work?

I think Sandalore is also maybe a trial and error. Maybe it works for some but no one is sure about the correct dosage. Many take it with minoxidil but again without specific knowledge of dosage it might do bad than good for you hair.
