microneedling

I just started with a Dr Pen on my widows peak. 0.6mm, speed of 3. I made small circular/swirling movements. The skin got a little red, but not much, and no little bleeding pricks. This morning (did it 9 hours ago) the area feels like I have a slight sunburn. I didn’t spend long, only a couple minutes, doing the whole area but relatively it isnt a huge area.

Should I be seeing more reaction? I took a picture but it didn’t even look like anything, though in person the area was a bit redder.

The epidermis is 0.5mm thick, and there are no stem cells in it. The stem cells you want to reach are 1.0-1.5mm below the epidermis. It would be best if you went deeper. I generally tell my patients to use a depth of 1.25, and rather than a circular motion, hold it in each place for 10 seconds.
