"If acne is active, with an inflammatory pustular component, the use of a jade roller could 'pop' some of these inflamed pustules," says Dr. Ilyas. "Managing the skin appropriately afterwards and taking the time to clean the jade roller is important to avoid aggravating the skin." On the other hand, using a dirty jade roller can introduce new bacteria to skin, which in turn may cause breakouts. So be sure to clean your jade roller regularly.
