What should you know about Newdermo microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion works by mechanically polishing the outermost skin layer. Depending on the device, the practitioner may use a diamond-textured tip or another abrasive surface with suction. The treatment may temporarily make skin feel smoother, but it does not correct every cause of acne, pigmentation, scarring, or redness.

Your skin should be checked for active irritation, infection, open areas, or a weakened barrier before treatment. See the [Microdermabrasion Device](/technology/microdermabrasion-device/) page for device-focused information.

Share your skin history, recent sun exposure, cold sores, allergies, and current products or medicines with the practitioner. Ask what will be treated, how suction and intensity are controlled, and which cleanser and moisturiser to use afterward. Pause strong exfoliants only as directed, and avoid picking or applying irritating products while the skin feels sensitive.

If your goal is pigment, texture, or congestion, ask whether another approach is more appropriate. A [Chemical Peel](/treatments/aesthetic-procedures/chemical-peel/) changes the surface with a chemical solution, so it has different preparation and aftercare considerations.

Seek clinical advice if discomfort increases instead of settling, or if you develop marked swelling, blisters, broken skin, pus, spreading redness, or a new persistent change in skin color. Facial swelling with breathing trouble needs urgent help.

Ask what result is realistic for your concern, whether your current skin condition allows treatment, what to stop beforehand, and which aftercare signs require review.
