Hiv with derma roller

[Naiksana]

In 2017 I purchased a personal 2mm derma roller from amazon,didnt really pay attention on its packaging whether it was used or not,I sterlised it in 70 isopropyl alcohol for about 5 mins and used it,now recently read some articles about derma roller,how 2 people got infected,I'm kind of getting an anxiety,plz help,am at any risk???

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

You cannot get HIV from objects - only from a penis or a vagina, or an intravenous needle.  A dermaroller does not use intravenous needles.  I'm not sure where you saw that 2 people got HIV from a used dermaroller, but it doesn't matter - there are fictional stories all over the internet that should be dismissed, as they are not medically-documented cases.

Thank you so much for your reply,I read it here,https://graziadaily.co.uk/beauty-hair/skin/vampire-facial-risks-hiv-hepatitis/
It's a well known site,it's already been 5 years and I don't have any symptoms,
Just would like to ask does 70% isopropyl alcohol kills the hiv virus in 5 minutes on needles??

That is an ENTIRELY different procedure than using a dermaroller at home.

It doesn't matter if you use alcohol or not - you CANNOT get HIV from a dermaroller, or any other object.  Forget about this idea and move on.
