A derma roller is a handheld device with a handle and a roller that has small needles which are 0.2 mm to 2 mm long. It creates micro-injuries in the skin, further inducing the process of healing wherein, the generation of growth factors, neovascularization, collagen and elastin is promoted, in turn leading to hair growth.
