This is the HSN TS  today.  I know that it isn't a true microneedling device but wondered if anyone has had results with it for exfoliation. Do your

products absorb better? The reviews on sites Ive looked at are pretty positive.  The lip attachment look interesting too.

I just think that roller device is too expensive. Plus you have to replace the rollers every 3 months. That can get costly over time and time is what you need with this kind of procedure. I prefer buying a high-quality roller that will last longer. It's just the way I do things. 

eta - I also don't care for the design of that roller either. There are way too many needles on the roller for it to be effective. More needles on a roller doesn't mean better results and may even prevent good penetration.

@SilleeMee thanks for the info!  Never thought about the amount of needles but I have read your helpful posts and know there's a difference in needle size.  I'm too chicken still to try actually microneedling like you do, but realize that's how you get the true benefits.  I just wondered if the Glopro did just enough to get the lotions and potions to get in a little deeper.

I'm getting this. My friend has it and just loves it.  I've seen the difference it's made in her skin in her early 50's. It makes all your skincare work better.  Getting the lip attachment is exciting. I also ordered the body attachment. I view having to get new attachments every 3-4 months as a minimal issue and something you need to do with other things for maitenance.  I also don't mind the expense IF this works for me. You also get 2 months to try before returning so I see it as a win-win.  I ordered the new moisturizer too.  I will return with the 2 months if I don't see any difference.   My friend has raved about this since she puchased it.

@GymBunny thanks!  I'm thinking of the 60 day return policy too.  You've seen someone's improvement, so that's encouraging. 😁 if I remember correctly, HSN has deals on the replacement heads too.  That lip attachment is what's making me want to 

give it a try.

I bought one (not Bioscience) on ebay for five dollars.  It works great and I use it every three weeks.  Don't waste your money on a name brand.  I've never had a problem with the one I bought on ebay and they're longer needles, so they get into your skin better.  I also use powder collagen every day in my coffee which helps when you do this.  I've been using this for over six months now and I have noticed that my skin has plumped and don't have the jowls any longer.

Yes, they do!  I also bought the 2 for 1 replacement head pack. That means you are set for a year if you like it.

The needles on the Beauty BioSscience GloPro device do not go deep enough to turn over cells or product collagen. They do help your beauty products to penatrate better. Do research on micro-needling. There is a lot to learn about it. Be sure if you decide to do this, buy your roller from a reputable company. Sterilization is a really important part of the process and also the products you use before and after are really, really important. You have to be careful especially after using the roller. There are several really good threads about this subject in the Beauty Forum. Just type in the search box above: micro-needling or derma-rolling. Hope this helps.

I actually just watched a new interview with Dr. Dennis Gross on YouTube where he says the at-home dermarollers are basically useless.  He was being interviewed by Sali Hughes.  Really interesting and informative interview.  Dr. Dray on YouTube also says dermarollers do nothing but irritate the skin.  I bought the GloPro months ago and now I wish I hadn't.  All it's done is make my skin inflammed.

@TuesdayTaylor, for what it’s worth, Dr. Drey also says that the Nuface device is worthless, but I have photos that prove it has lessened my fine lines.
