Obviously I'm aware they'll never fully go away, and I'm fine with it, but has anyone had any luck with making bumpy scars that are either self harm or similar type less noticeable? Maybe just a little flatter, or more faded? They're very old (10+ years) so fully faded, just quite bumpy and I was wondering if microneedling could help, since it can help with stretch marks to a degree.

I Googled some pictures and found some that looked good, but also saw some comments here that it made them worse.

Anyone actually tried it/knows someone and has some experience, positive or negative?

Thanks! :)

Hi all. I just got my Dr pen m8s today, and I was really looking forward to my first session. I was excited to go full in straight away, maybe practise on my belly stretch marks etc first just to get the movement right.

Now I'm thinking though - would you recommend a lighter first session or a "patch test"? I'm wondering if for the first time I should do the whole face but at minimal depth, or should I just do a small part of my cheek/neck first to see how my skin reacts?

I never had microneedling done but I had IPL and some other lasers, and the lady did want to do microneedling next, I just couldn't afford it lol.

Thanks!
