I want to use 0.5 mm derma roller at home. Can I use it by myself or I should consult a dermatologist first before using it?

Hello, Dermaroller can be done at home but effect of 0.5 mm on face is minimal. Also microneedling is a better option than dermaroller as it causes some skin damage due to oblique skin entry. Better to get it done with dermatologist with numbing cream and sterile environment.
