Unlocking Hair Growth Potential: A Complete Guide to Using Minoxidil with a Derma Roller

step-by-step instructions on how to use minoxidil with a derma roller.

  1. Clean your scalp: Before starting the treatment, ensure that your scalp is clean and free of any hair products or oils. Blow dry your hair before using minoxidil for better absorption. 

  2. Divide the scalp into sections: Divide your scalp into 4-5 sections using a comb. This will help you to apply the minoxidil and derma roller treatment evenly.

  3. Apply minoxidil: Using the dropper provided with your minoxidil solution, apply the solution directly to your scalp on your desired area. Be careful not to apply it to your hair, as this will not be effective. Gently massage the solution into your scalp with your fingertips.

  4. Use the derma roller: Take your derma roller and start rolling it gently over the section of your scalp where you have applied the minoxidil solution. Roll the derma roller back and forth in a small cross-section pattern. Apply even pressure while rolling, and be gentle to avoid any injury. If you see redness on your scalp, it means you have reached the desired depth.

  5. Repeat the process: Repeat the above steps for each section of your scalp until you have covered your entire desired areas on your scalp.

  6. Clean the derma roller: Please do not share your derma roller with anyone else. After using the derma roller, clean it with hot water to prevent any bacterial growth. 

  7. Avoid sun exposure: It is essential to avoid sun exposure after using the minoxidil and derma roller treatment. Wear a hat or use sunscreen to protect your scalp from harmful UV rays.

Remember to use the treatment daily, and do not miss any doses. If you miss one day, do not top up with an extra dose the next day. You may experience increased hair shedding after using minoxidil and PRP treatment, but do not panic as this is normal. Just continue with the treatment, and it will settle.
