What should you know about lancer skincare microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion uses a device to loosen and remove some surface cells. Suction can help clear loosened debris while the handpiece moves across the skin. People may choose it for a rough feel, dull appearance, or mild surface irregularity. It does not remove every blemish, erase deep scarring, or treat an underlying skin disease by itself.

Because the outer barrier is temporarily more sensitive, stinging and dryness can follow. A chemical peel is a different exfoliation method that uses a solution rather than mechanical abrasion; suitability depends on the concern, skin condition, and treatment history.

Before treatment, disclose recent tanning, sunburn, cold sores, eczema, rosacea flares, active infection, and products such as retinoids or strong acids. Do not combine several irritating exfoliation methods close together unless a clinician has planned the sequence.

Use a mild cleanser and moisturiser after treatment, avoid picking or scrubbing, and shield the area from sunlight. Wait until your skin has recovered before restarting strong active products. If you are treating acne or pigmentation, ask for a plan that addresses the cause rather than relying on repeated exfoliation alone.

Get medical advice for worsening redness, heat, swelling, crusting, pus, blisters, severe tenderness, or a new dark or light patch that does not settle. Seek urgent help if swelling affects the eyes or breathing becomes difficult. Stop further treatment while a clinician assesses a significant reaction.

Is microdermabrasion suitable for my current skin condition? Which products should I stop and when can I restart them? How will you adjust treatment for my skin tone or history of dark marks? Would a chemical peel or another treatment better match my goal?
