Dermafile FAQBelow are some answers to our most frequently asked questions about Dermafile™. How does Dermafile compare to the new Skin Needling? Skin Needling versus Dermafile treatmentsI have been asked a lot lately about skin needling and how it compares to Dermafile. I have to admit I have never done skin needling so I don’t have any experience personally. But I have read up on the process and even watched some treatments on you tube. I was immediately a little squeamish by the sight of blood and the trauma that was being caused in the videos. But I was also impressed by the results. I can honestly tell you that any time you abrade the skin and cause trauma you will build collagen and thicken the dermis. That is exactly what Dermafile does without all the trauma or blood. And because you are building collagen and leveling the surface you are resurfacing the skin safely over time…The nice thing about Dermafile is that you can be as gentle as you need to be or you can be as aggressive and you need to be. I have personally filed away years of sun damage and skin tags with regular use. You will also smooth away lines, wrinkles, scarring, and stretch marks slowly or aggressively depending on your level of experience and expertise. How do I clean the Dermafile™? Clean your Dermafile™ by using a hospital grade enzyme detergent for cleaning surgical tools. An ultrasonic jewelry cleaner is a great place to clean them with the enzyme. Follow with rinsing well and soak for 10-15 minutes in a hospital grade disinfectant. Rinse well. Dry and store in a clean dry place. How does Dermafile™ work? Dermafile™ is a skin polishing and resurfacing tool made of stainless steel and finely crushed diamonds. This file will lightly polish the skin by hand, removing the top layer of dead skin cells, and leaving velvety smooth, fresh, rejuvenated skin. Where on the body can I use the Dermafile? Dermafile may be used on any part of the body. It is a very effective tool for treating aging and sun damaged skin, scars, acne scarring, pigmentation, stretch marks, fin lines and enlarged and clogged pores. It will also smooth rough calloused skin on elbows, knees, hands and feet. How many treatments with Dermafile™ will I need to see results? You will feel a difference immediately and experience noticable results within three treatments. Is it possible to exfoliate too much with Dermafile™? You want to be very gentle with Dermafile being heavy handed is not necessary and may cause irritation. It is recommended that Dermafile™ be used on a monthly basis to avoid sensitivity and thinning of the skin. You will thicken the stratum corneum and build collagen, reduce scarring, sun damage and smooth the skin in a safe and healthy way by taking it slow and easy. Are there any skin types that cannot use the Dermafile™? Dermafile is safe to use on most every skin type. However, do not use on broken skin, inflamed skin, acne, pustules, rosecea, moles or any abnormal skin condition. If in doubt consult your health care professional. Are there any products that are incompatible with Dermafile? Discontinue RetinA, alpha hydroxyl acids and salisylic acid products 5 days prior to using the Dermafile™ and for 3 days after. Always use a good SPF30 sun block whenever you are exfoliating your skin. Be sure to use skin care products that are made for your skin type. How long will a Dermafile last? This depends on how often it is used and how well it is cared for. The Diamond plating should last about a year. Many Dermafiles have lasted longer. The stainless steel will last indefinetly.
