Dermaroller for hair loss: dermatologist explains how it works

A dermaroller is sometimes mentioned as a remedy for hair loss. According to a dermatologist in an article by MAN MAN, the device can stimulate the scalp, but whether it actually helps depends on the cause of the hair loss.

The dermaroller creates small holes in the skin, which is said to improve blood circulation and the absorption of products. Whether this actually leads to less hair loss or new hair growth is, according to the source, uncertain. There are indications that it can play a supportive role in some forms of hair loss.

The dermatologist emphasises that a dermaroller is not a miracle cure. In cases of hereditary or hormonal hair loss, other treatments are often more effective. The source advises first determining the cause of the hair loss before trying such methods.
