Microdermabrasion

I have had microdermabrasion twice, and i loved the immediate results. However i find that the results didnt last.

I experienced a sunburn effect a few hours later, but it went away the next day. Make sure you use lots of moisteriser afterwards, as microdermabrasion takes off a layer of skin, so u dont want it drying.

Also, dont use chemicals, such as powerful face products 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after approx.

Before you get microdermabrasion, try Origins Modern Friction. I'm serious, it's a miricle product. You'll see and feel a huge difference in your skin the first time you use it. It's gentle too. The frist time I used it, I just kept feeling my face because it was so soft and smoth. its only $35 and lasts a long time. I'm really not kidding, It's the best thing out there as far as an alternative to getting microdermabrasion!

Hi Kim

I have had 4 MDA treatments done over the past couple of months. the main reason i went for them was to get rid of scarring left by spots and also to improve the condition of my skin. my beautician recommended a course of 6 over a period of 6-8 weeks but i found this too intense. 

having had the 4 treatments i haven't really noticed a difference at all. the first treatment left my skin glowing, smooth and soft. however this only lasted a few days and then went back to normal.

i was also suffering from spots (still am infact ) so thought the treatment may help as it is suppose to help with acne, however again no difference there either.

i did alot of research before having the MDA and it sounded fantastic, however i personally haven't gained from it.

may work better on different skin types. maybe best if you try a couple of sessions but i would recommend leaving at least 2 weeks between each treatment and see how it goes.

all the best

I get my Microdermabrasion every two weeks, I use to use very heavey foundation and powders that constantly would clog my pores and then I would look like I hade a belmish and try to cover it up even more with foundation, this caused scars on my skin from picking at blemishes, so now after all that I have to go every other week to the estitician who gives me a facial and does microdermabrasion on my face then she manually extracts pimple's, and black heads. It is not a fun experience but you have to do it to get glowing skin. I reccomend doing microdermabrasion once a month if you have no real blemishes or dark sacars, otherwise they usually reccomd evry other week.
