Can dermarolling tighten the skin?

Yes, but only if the skin texture is a bit lax. It takes a long time of repeated rolling to achieve results though.

A 1.5 mm dermaroller is required.

If the skin sagging is caused by receding fat due to aging - because as we age we lose subcutaneous fat - a dermaroller cannot fix it. You'd need fillers (Restylan etc.) to be injected by a doctor into the hollow areas where the fat is missing - such as under the eyes etc.

If you have a lot of excessive skin due to weight loss for ex. and that is why the skin is significantly sagging, dermarolling unfortunately can not improve this.

can dermarolling help with the skin on my arms, unfortunately they're not as firm as they used to be, you know dimples and "lined" like gravity is calling them, hard to explain ....

The best approach is to tone the muscles by exercise (very important), dry brushing the skin or exfoliation with fine salt + almond oil, regular dermarolling, the use of vit. C serum and not overexposing the skin to the sun.
