What is an Adjustable Derma Stamp?
The adjustable derma stamp is a handheld microneedling device designed to precisely target specific areas of the skin. Unlike a derma roller that rolls needles across the face, the derma stamp works with a stamping action, delivering controlled micro-injuries that encourage collagen and elastin production. The adjustable needle depth dial allows customisation from 0.5mm to deeper penetration, making it versatile for various skin concerns.
Key Advantages of Using a Derma Stamp
- Precision targeting — ideal for small, stubborn skin imperfections or scars
- Adjustable needle depth for personalised treatments
- Helps improve the look of wrinkles, stretch marks, and hyperpigmentation
- Supports absorption of active skincare ingredients
- Non-invasive with minimal downtime when used correctly
Step-by-Step Microneedling at Home Guide
Preparation and Hygiene Essentials
Proper preparation is crucial to avoid infections and maximise results. Start by thoroughly washing your hands and cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser. Next, disinfect the derma stamp by soaking the needle head in 70% isopropyl alcohol for 5 to 10 minutes, then allow it to air dry completely.
Performing the Derma Stamp Treatment
- Select the appropriate needle depth based on your skin needs
- Apply a hydrating serum — such as the Age Reverse Peptide Serum — to the targeted area to provide lubrication and enhance absorption
- Press the derma stamp gently but firmly into the skin, treating one area at a time
- Do not over-stamp or apply excessive pressure to avoid irritation or damage
- Once treatment is complete, rinse your face gently with water
Choosing the Right Needle Size
- 0.20–0.25mm: Best for enhanced absorption of skincare products and treating fine lines around delicate areas such as under the eyes
- 0.3–0.5mm: Ideal for improving skin texture and mild hyperpigmentation, and stimulating collagen for lifted, brighter-looking skin
- 0.75–1.0mm: Targets acne scars, light wrinkles, and pigmentation; requires longer recovery time
- 1.5mm and above: Suitable for deeper scars and stretch marks; recommended for experienced users
Choosing the Right Serum for Microneedling
The serum you apply immediately after microneedling is absorbed more deeply than at any other time — making serum selection one of the most important decisions in your at-home protocol. Look for formulas with peptides, hyaluronic acid, or growth-supporting actives that work with the skin's natural repair process.

- Always disinfect your derma stamp before and after each use
- Do not use on active acne, open wounds, or irritated skin
- Limit treatment frequency according to needle depth (e.g., 0.5mm every 3 weeks, 1.5mm every 4–6 weeks)
- Avoid applying retinol, benzoyl peroxide, or acids immediately after treatment
- Protect your skin from direct sunlight and always use a broad-spectrum SPF — the Vitamin C Day Cream SPF50 is ideal
- Seek professional advice if you experience unusual irritation, swelling, or prolonged redness
Post-Treatment Skincare Routine
After microneedling, your skin is more receptive to active ingredients but also more sensitive. Apply the Organic Aloe Vera Gel immediately after to help skin feel soothed and hydrated. Follow with the Age Reverse Peptide Serum while skin absorption is at its peak. Avoid exfoliation or makeup for at least 24 hours.
Derma Stamp vs. Derma Roller: Which Is Right for You?
The derma roller uses a rolling motion to apply needles across larger skin areas — quicker for broad treatment zones but less precise. The derma stamp delivers a vertical stamping motion, enabling more targeted work on scars or small imperfections. This precision is ideal for delicate or uneven surfaces, such as around the eyes, mouth, or hairline. Our Adjustable Derma Stamp is designed specifically for this precision approach.
Frequently Asked Questions
What serum should I use after microneedling?
Use a peptide or hyaluronic acid serum immediately after — the Age Reverse Peptide Serum is formulated to support firmer-looking skin and is ideal when absorption is at its peak post-needling. Avoid retinol, acids, or vitamin C on the same night as treatment.
Can I use retinol with microneedling?
Not on the same night. Use the Retinol 2.5% Serum on non-needling nights to support cell turnover between sessions.
Do I need SPF after microneedling?
Yes — absolutely. Skin is significantly more UV-sensitive after microneedling. Apply the Vitamin C Day Cream SPF50 every morning following treatment.
Can I order from the USA?
Yes — USA orders are welcome. You'll checkout in USD with tracked international delivery available.
