It comes as the dermatological process that you can apply to remove the outer layer of skin. People use this method to even out skin, brighten a dull complexion and lighten acne scars.

Microdermabrasion is commonly performed by trained estheticians or professionals. The process, which may take more than 30 minutes to complete, is less painful. But it requires several treatment sessions to achieve optimal results.

Crystal microdermabrasion and diamond microdermabrasion are two common microdermabrasion types doctors prescribe for patients.

Crystal Microdermabrasion 

In the process of crystal microdermabrasion, fine needles are shot into the skin and simultaneously removed from the same.

Diamond Microdermabrasion

The diamond microdermabrasion uses a diamond-tipped wand on your skin.

Both processes are helpful in gently exfoliating the skin and removing the

outer layer. It feels like a gritty face massage or minor tugging. If you feel uncomfortable in the process, tell it immediately to the professional. After the process, you may feel tenderness, swelling or burning. If you feel more redness or have infections, consult a professional about that. Also, don’t forget to wear sunscreen after microdermabrasion. It will help protect your new skin.
