Hi all,
I thought I am not looking as young as I looked some months back; I discussed about this problem with one of my friend. He advised me to go for microdermabrasion procedure. But I have many questions regarding microdermabrasion procedure. I found there are many treatments for the skin problem. Microdermabrasion is that helpful with my skin problem? I m hoping you can help me?
You can do microdermabrasion at home. I use an at home kit with really good results. I am at that stage of life where I'm not looking as young as I did in my wedding pictures, but I still get the occassional breakouts! The at home kit I use has really helped with both problems. My skin looks younger and clearer than it has in a long time. An at home kit is less expensive too. I use this one:

Know the Pros & Cons of Microdermabrasion Treatment
Microdermabrasion, an anti-aging skin treatment, is gaining popularity for its ease of operation and the benefits that it offers. There are many benefits of microdermabrasion. Its procedure has the potential to meet a variety of your cosmetic objectives like the improvement of fine lines, wrinkles, hyper pigmentation, acne, scars and stretch marks.
It is also known as "sand blasting."The process uses a high-pressure stream of aluminum oxide crystals to superficially peel the upper layer of the skin.
Most procedures of microdermabrasion use units which are closed-loop negative pressure systems that pass aluminum oxide crystals into the skin using negative vacuum pressure.Some procedures use magnesium oxide and sodium bicarbonate crystals while others use sodium chloride crystals and positive pressure for microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion treatment of acne scars requires more intense and aggressive treatment with more passes and more rounds of microdermabrasion treatment to get the best results. Similarly raised or deeply pitted skin areas (possibly from old severe acne scars) and darker pigmented areas require multiple treatments.
There is some Limitations of Microdermabrasion Procedure like it cannot be advised for those who have heavily damaged skin for which a more aggressive approach like a laser or a deep chemical peel needs to be tried.
Microdermabrasion is not able to remove tattoos, neither it is able to remove acne scars which are very deep down the skin. Similarly undiagnosed lesions, recent herpes outbreaks, warts, active, weeping acne (stages 3 to 4) and active rosacea are the skin disorders that cannot be treated with microdermabrasion.
Lastly microdermabrasion procedure is not suitable for patients who have had any type of facial rejuvenation procedure or treatment such as Botox injections, collagen implants, or chemical peels within the past 3-6 months.
