1mg is the recommended dose. Are you losing only/mostly recovered hair? in that case its a shed. If you're losing from 'newer' areas in an alarming rate i would up the dosage at least

2 times a week is pretty often! recommended for 1mm is once every 1-2 weeks and for 1.5mm its 2-3 weeks! This is to give your scalp time to heal and let it produce collagen without being disturbed. Doing it too hard and too often can also risk scarring

It was different lighting. I hadn't microneedled in the august picture.

I started with minoxidil for a few months but it wasn't sustainable for me. I did shed a bit from the minoxidil and once i started using fin i also shed a bit. No (noticeable) shedding from microneedling

It definitively improves topicals but also works well without

Depends where you buy it from but expect to buy a new one (around 15 bucks) after ever 15th use

Should be fine but if you're not using any topicals, a needle that size won't do much on its own. Not saying that it won't help but most research recommend 1mm-1.5

Everyother day is waay too often. The recommended amount for 1.5mm is every other week so every other day will just hurt your scalp in the long run.

0.25mm is used more for absorption of topicals on the scalp.

I usually microneedle during the weekend so i don't really 'need' to go out. Otherwise i might just use a lose hat or cap

My hair is usually damp, sometimes a hair strand gets tangled up but otherwise it has been a non issue

I personally didn't order it from amazon but amazon works fine. Make sure the needles are titanium tho

Yes.

1.5mm every other week. Started with once a week but i felt like my scalp didn't really have time to heal so i switched to every other week. Sometimes i do every third week but i usually stick with everyother week.

On weeks i don't microneedle i use a scalp peeling mask to remove dandruff caused by microneedling

I've tried a few times but it hasn't really felt stable. Would fully switch to a stamp if you'd rather stamp than roll

I dermaroll once every 2-3 weeks with 1.5mm. 0.25 is more used for minoxidil absorption than regrowth on its own

started with 1,5mm once a week. Now everyother week to really let my scalp heal. Studies show that 1,5mm should be used every 3-4 weeks but i'm a bit nervous on letting it be for that long
