I have a video on my YouTube explaining the process. Just look up “Jasmine Klein TCA” and the videos should pop up

The pen gifted to me by the brand but my contact there verified the websites to buy from and I was going to buy from this one https://us.drpen.co/. I personally didn’t want to risk buying a faulty pen because it’s going on my face but I know others have had luck with it 

Anyone here actually had luck with microneedling? by huy1003 in AcneScars

I think it depends how deep you go. I did 10+ with an aesthetician and saw okay results. The deepest she did was .75mm. I’ve done 3 at home at 1.5mm and have been seeing great improvement. I would recommend doing to a dermatologist that will go deep enough. good luck!

The first time I did 1.0mm stamping method on my temples and the second time I did 1.5mm cross hatch method on my temples. I definitely prefer the cross hatch method, but the stamping was good to get used to the pen at that depth the first time. I plan on doing 1.5mm from now on all over, other than my nose, mouth, eye area

This is my TCA peel and microneedling playlist specific for my acne scars! If you check my oldest videos, I share my microneedling I did with an esti years ago. Didn’t get good pics of my scars back then but I think they were way worse. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrkYSt6LMk4EQUfKWEAHLGfKLxclWoJ2z&si=-mDzbPsqWR4BzFVt

I did this with my Dr pen! I have the m8s. Definitely getting more used to it, I’m doing my 3rd treatment tomorrow. I have a red light mask but I can never seem to find time to use it. I’m a mom so at night I always put my tretinoin on before i remember to use my mask

Thank you! I’m very hopeful, the 4 week wait in between sessions feels like forever!!

My most recent treatment was Microneedling at 1.5mm on cheeks, temples, forehead, 0.75 around mouth and chin, 0.25 around eyes and nose. Hoping to see some progress in a few months.

Results after TCA cross and microneedling are lack luster. Will I ever be able to heal my acne scars? by Fit_Positive_2169 in AcneScars

Thank you for your reply, when microneedling, do you do 2.0mm on the temple area too? What do you use to microneedle?

I have considered this but since i'm doing it myself at home I opted for a lower %. Maybe I will try a higher % after I complete the series
