What should you know about pristine microdermabrasion?

A handpiece passes over the skin while a Microdermabrasion Device exfoliates the outer layer and removes loose surface cells. The treatment may make skin feel smoother and can help the appearance of dullness or mild uneven texture. It does not remodel deep scars or treat every pigmentation concern. Intensity and suitability depend on skin sensitivity, active inflammation, recent procedures, and the area being treated.

Tell the provider about active acne, eczema, cold sores, recent sun exposure, retinoids, and procedures such as waxing or injectables. Arrive without harsh exfoliants or fragranced products unless instructed otherwise. Afterward, use gentle skincare, moisturiser, and sun protection; avoid picking, vigorous scrubbing, and heat if the skin feels tender. Ask when to restart active ingredients and makeup.

Contact the clinic for worsening swelling, severe stinging, blistering, crusting, or colour change. Spreading redness, warmth, pus, fever, or increasing pain needs medical review because these can signal infection. Delay treatment and seek advice if the skin is actively inflamed, wounded, or recovering from another procedure.

What concern can this treatment realistically improve? Which device and intensity will you use? Is my current skincare compatible? When can I resume exfoliants, retinoids, exercise, and sun exposure?
