POPU Tips(12)--the relationship between depth and speed about microneedles and the right microneedles about different functions

1. What is the relationship between DEPTH & SPEED when microneedling?

The deeper you go, the slower you should set the speed because the "needle pins" need time to retract. People get scratches when the pen is being moved around too fast for the depth.

2. Which microneedling cartridge is right for you?

The Nano Round Cartridge is great for regular use. This basically touches the top layer of your skin, allowing your products to penetrate more fully and helping get rid of old skin cells that build up, causing your skin to look dull.

The 12 Pin Cartridge is actually very aggressive because, by having more space between needles, this cartridge can really stab thoroughly, having a great effect on scars. Because this cartridge can needle up to 2.5mm in depth, it will help to induce collagen by entering into the dermis.   Just because the 12-pin cartridge can go to 2.5mm in depth does not mean you will always use it at this depth. It's a great option for certain areas that you are treating, like a chicken pox scar, but it rarely needles the whole face at this depth. in fact, it would not be easy considering some areas of your face are very thin, like your forehead or eye areas. So, although it has the range to needle at 2.5mm, you will constantly adjust its depth on your pen's dial.

The 36-pin cartridge can make skin very evenly and cause the skin to glow. Like the 12-pin, the 36-pin cartridge has a max range setting of 2.5mm in depth. This cartridge is the most effective for improving the skin.
