Hello,
Buy separate dermaroller for your skin and scalp.
Your scalp has harder skin and also has many impurities which we get from daily pollution whereas your skin is sensitive and should also be protected from the dirt pollutin and microbes.
Use separate derma rollers for skin and scalp to avoid any microbial infection in skin and scalp both.
