Microdermabrasion after cataract surgery

[JGCBeautyTherapy]

I have a client coming in for microdermabrasion that has had cataract surgery 3 weeks ago. Is that okay?

I know the risk of anything getting in the eye is ridiculously small, but that risk plus stitches in the eye is enough for me to say don't do it. Just tell them to wait 3 more weeks. At 6 weeks it will be all healed and be just like a normal eye (other than they should have sun protection all the time when outside) and the risks will be normal.

I've recently had 3 of my clients have cataract ops and they were told by the medics not to have a facial for 6 weeks post-op minimum.
