What should you know about Kendal professional microdermabrasion machine?

Professional microdermabrasion uses a powered handpiece to abrade the outer surface of skin, with suction or another collection method removing loosened material. The operator can adapt pressure, speed, and passes to the body area and skin response. It is a surface treatment, so it cannot correct every type of scar, pigment change, or inflammatory rash.

A professional setting should include an assessment before treatment. Active infection, open wounds, inflamed eczema, recent sunburn, or fragile skin may make exfoliation unsuitable or require postponement.

Ask who will perform the procedure, how the handpiece is cleaned, which skin concern is being targeted, and what alternatives exist. Mention retinoids, recent waxing, peels, laser treatment, cold sores, medicines, and a tendency toward prolonged redness or pigmentation.

Keep post-treatment care simple: cleanse gently, moisturise, protect exposed skin from sunlight, and avoid picking or abrasive products while sensitivity remains. The [Microdermabrasion Device](/technology/microdermabrasion-device/) overview explains the equipment category. A [Chemical Peel](/treatments/aesthetic-procedures/chemical-peel/) offers a separate method of exfoliation and is not interchangeable with machine settings.

Temporary redness, dryness, or mild sensitivity may follow treatment. Seek advice if discomfort intensifies, swelling does not settle, or you notice blisters, broken skin, pus, spreading warmth, or a persistent colour change. Get urgent help for breathing difficulty, severe facial swelling, or eye injury.

Ask whether the machine is appropriate for your diagnosis and skin type, what result is realistic, how many sessions might be considered, and which products should be paused. Ask who will manage a reaction if the skin becomes inflamed or infected.
