Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM

Dermaroller treatment can cause erythema/redness which can last for 24-48 hours, so the rash that you are experiencing could actually be due to this.

If I was your treating doctor I would have asked you to use a mild cleanser twice daily for a week. A topical soothing lotion e.g calamine lotion twice daily would help reduce the rash/erythema.

If the does'nt seem to improve even after 2-3 days then you must see a dermatologist to rule out any possibility of Allergic /Irritant dermatitis to any of the products that you may be using.

regards
