Medical Microdermabrasion - Fab

[xtremities]

I went to a clinic today and a medical grade microdermabrasion treatment.

I must say I was impressed. My skin looked great afterwards and felt soooo smooth.

Anyone else had this done.

Was it a Glycolic Peel? If so, what strength was it? xxx

Thinking of having it done to get rid of some hormal acne scarring - tell me all about it!

How much difference had it made to your skin after one treatment etc.

Hi there,

I had this treatment just over a week ago and was amazed at the transformation to my skin.

I have pigmentation marks on my skin and absolutely nothing works on it.

I had this treatment basically just to refresh my skin. I wouldn't say it has made any difference to the pigmentation on mmy face, but my skin feels and looks much clearer.

I am also using a lightening cream called thiospot and thought that having this treatment first would enable to the cream to be absorbed easier and it seems to be working.

Will definitely have another one. It cost £50.00, but was worth every penny.

I'm really interested in medical microdermabrasion, the effects are loads better than the non-med ones.

Thing worrying me is the sensitivity afterwards....is your skin dealing with it okay? Have you been given protective cream?

Kimmi....I don't think glycolic acid is used with microdermabrasion, the treatment is more manual (like sandblasting!) than chemical resurfacing. hth

My skin was fine afterwards, a little flushed for an hour so, that is all.
