Ghori Derma Roller System

What is a derma roller?

A derma roller is essentially a small cylindrical drum that is covered with tiny needles and is mounted on a handle. The size of these needles in the case of the Ghori derma roller range in size from 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm. 

How does it work?

A derma roller works by creating tiny slits or microchannels in the skin when rolled over the targeted area. These micro-injuries activate the body's natural healing response, including better blood circulation and the release of growth factors, which may potentially support hair growth. When these needles are gently rolled over our skin, they create micro-injuries that boost the body’s natural healing processes. 

USP:

The derma roller is not just a hair care device but can also be used as a skincare device. Regular use of the derma roller boosts better circulation of the blood in all parts of the body. 

Key Benefits of Derma Roller

1. Improves Blood Circulation: The use of the dermal roller improves the flow of nourishment to the scalp, strengthening hair follicles and promoting hair growth as well as better brain functioning.
2. Scalp inflammation: Use of the derma roller reduces scalp inflammation in the long run.
3. Skin Texture: Use of the derma roller promotes the production of collagen and elastin, making the skin look younger and firmer. Thus, it helps reduce the appearance of scars, fine lines, and wrinkles.
4. Improves Product Absorption: It increases the absorption of products that are applied on the skin such as Neo hair lotion, serums, and creams.
5. Reduces Pore Size: It can minimize the appearance of enlarged pores.
6. Treats Stretch Marks: There is a possibility that it may reduce the visibility of stretch marks over time.
7. Improves Skin Tone: Consistent use of the derma roller can help with hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone.
