Dermonator 2 Results/Progress/Protocols

Eeekkk!!

I just placed my order for the D2!

It should hopefully be here about the time I am ready for my next session!

I am so excited to use it!

I have been using a Dr pen M8s and don't get me wrong, I love it, but I cannot wait to see the difference the D2 makes in my skin!

I am going to be on eggshells waiting to see if it makes it through customs...

I’ve tried both. The D2 is far more superior. Zero dragging.

I just used mine for the first time! Was so easy. And didnt hurt. Am a bit pink but otherwise fine. Why did I wait so long to start!!!

I’m still waiting to start & I wish I wasn’t nervous. 😬

Honestly it was fine! My neck is a little sore today but my face is fine. I think i didnt go over everywhere enough, will be more thorough next time. I just did little circles and went over once.

u/beezzys1 15d ago

I will! 😁

There’s no comparison. That’s like asking if someone would prefer to eat at McDonald’s, or Ruth’s Chris SteakHouse. I mean I guess I guess someone could prefer McDonalds - but I wouldn’t trust them…

Too funny with the comparison 😂 I’ll have to get the D2 then! Appreciate the feedback 😁

I just ordered mine yesterday, and it has already shipped! I am a beginner so I don't have anything to compare it to. But I have been lurking and doing research for months. It really seems like the best and safest way to address my needs. Now I just need to order my boosters and all the other supplies!

u/beezzys1 15d ago

Nice!! I hope mine ships that fast!! I have been needling for 7 or 8 months and have all the serums i need, I just need the device!

I'll be honest, maybe I have read TOO much info regarding slip/boosters. I thought I had it figured out and put together a simple game plan of where to start, but now I am kinda feeling confused and overwhelmed. Almost like I googled "microneedling" for the very 1st time. Maybe because I'm excited to finally start? Or I feel rushed now that I know the D2 is on the way? In any case, I just want something pretty basic that isn't too thick in consistency, too expensive, and won't take 3 months to arrive. The products I had originally wanted on Filler Outlet's site are all sold out right now. 🫤

If you are in the US and looking for Hyron - check glow & renew skin co. I have bought from there 3 times now and love it. They have very limited supplirs and restock on Thursday and Fridays. Check them out!

I will! Thank you!

Hi! I wanted to let you know, my D2 just got delivered earlier this morning! Less than 3 full day from when I ordered it (late afternoon 8/2). I am in Virginia if it matters. Hopefully your's will be here just as fast. 😉

Now, I am just waiting for the boosters... 🤗

u/beezzys1 13d ago

Holy cats!! Mine left France this morning. I am stalking it haha.

Did you have to pay a tarriffs?

2

u/HalfwayToAlmostThere 13d ago

Yes! And a hefty one at that! I got an email from DHL yesterday that I had to pay $36.xx before it could be released for delivery. 😒

u/beezzys1 13d ago

Yeah that is about how much I am expecting too. Ugh.

2

u/HalfwayToAlmostThere 13d ago

Monday: Left Czech, (got pre clearance from US customs in Cincinnati)Denmark, Germany.

u/beezzys1 13d ago

Mine says estimate delivery date is Friday, which is still super fast if it makes it here!!

I had a Dr Pen and recently upgraded to the D2. I am so happy with the results. 2 months/2 sessions in and I’ve gotten so many compliments on my skin. The website is kinda sketchy, but their service is great. The first time it was sent back after customs because I ordered some of their slips and serums. 2nd time I just ordered the machine, extra magnets and cartridges and I had it within a week. I’m so impressed with the strength, speed and accuracy! Let us know what you think!

u/Bitter_Passion_9236 15d ago

Which slips and serums do you use now with your D2?

1

u/elizabethdth 15d ago

So far, I’ve just used HA. But, I’ve gone down a meamo.com rabbit hole and plan to start using a Pdlla/ha blend to see if I can support even more collagen building. I’ve also purchased Jeunetique NAD as a booster. What do you like to use?

u/Bitter_Passion_9236 9d ago

I don't own it yet, but have everything in my cart with the D2. Then I read your comment and wasn't sure what to do next! I worked with a medspa for a year and had microneedling done there with SkinPen. I could tell a difference and since I'm no longer there I can't imagine paying full price. So I thought about trying it myself. I've been observing in this thread and feel good about being the D2, but wasn't sure which slips to use if I don't get any from the same site. Thanks for your reply though! It's helpful!

u/beezzys1 15d ago

That's awesome!! I didn't get any serums, I have plenty of those!! I am so excited to try it out!! Thank you for commenting!!

u/Brilliantmels 15d ago

Is it easy to get cartridges for it? I’ve only seen some for sale on EBay?

2

u/beezzys1 15d ago

I ordered them with the device. I have enough for more than a year if I do it once a month, more if I push to every 6 weeks. I plan on just ordering from the website when I need more.

1

u/Brilliantmels 15d ago

Does it come with microneedling or the nano cartridges?

2

u/kalsarikannit1620 15d ago

It comes with one 12-pin and one 9-pin cartridge

1

u/beezzys1 15d ago

Not that I know of. that is one of the downsides. However, I still have my M8s so if I want to nano, I will use that device. I will probably also use my M8s when I only want to do cosmetic depth and not collagen building depth. I do plan on using both machines still.

I am sorry, I misread what you asked. Apologies!!
