What should you know about the Newdermo diamond microdermabrasion machine?

Diamond microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation procedure. A textured handpiece passes over the skin while suction helps lift loosened surface cells. It does not remove deep tissue, and a device name alone does not establish the correct intensity, technique, or suitability for your skin.

Possible short-term effects include redness, tightness, dryness, or sensitivity. Active infection, open wounds, inflamed acne, eczema flares, or recent procedures may make resurfacing inappropriate. Learn how a [Microdermabrasion Device](/technology/microdermabrasion-device/) is used and what alternatives may involve.

Tell the practitioner about sensitive skin, active rashes, cold sores, recent sun exposure, and products or medicines that make skin more reactive. Ask how the handpiece is cleaned, whether suction and intensity will be adjusted, and what aftercare is supplied. After treatment, use a bland moisturiser, avoid picking, and protect freshly treated skin from strong sun and heat.

Do not combine exfoliating treatments on your own. A [Chemical Peel](/treatments/aesthetic-procedures/chemical-peel/) uses a chemical agent rather than a diamond tip, so the choice depends on your skin goals and current condition.

Contact a clinician if redness worsens, pain is significant, swelling persists, blisters form, or the skin becomes crusted or starts draining. Get urgent advice for facial swelling with breathing difficulty or signs of a severe reaction. Persistent darkening or lightening after irritation also merits review.

Ask whether your skin barrier is intact, what intensity is suitable, which products to pause, how long sensitivity may last, and what symptoms mean treatment should stop.
