I would like to try this, but I am kind of wary about what it will do to my skin (very sensitive).

Is it good for aging skin? Mine is very dull-looking and I am also noticing discolouration as well. I've heard it's suppose to help with both (including diminishing fine lines).

Any information about this would be greatly appreciated!
Anyone have dermabrasion done?

No one? How about micro-dermabrasion?

Has anyone ever used a peel mask or any such product (which basically does the same thing)?

Did it help your skin at all?

Am I in the wrong forum?

I tried Mary Kay's micro-derm abrasion. It was an at home treatment, so its not like the one you'd get in the salon. I liked the way it made my face feel. Very soft. I'd do it again.

Apparently not many of us have done this eh? I didn't reply at first, thinking maybe someone out there had more experince but I guess not lol!!!!

At my school, the PE teacher, age 50, very fit, has this done. Her skin was pealing after having it done, but once that stopped, her skin is glowing! She's a real beauty and has it done on a regular basis. I'm too chicken!

I use facial scrubs that are a bit abrasive when I feel a tad oily. Maybe once every week or two. It works for me.

I keep thinking about it, but haven't found the right time. I want to do it maybe on a Friday when I have nothing social planned for the weekend, but that doesn't happen all that often. I certainly don't want to go to work afterward.

nah, i haven't either. use face scrubs around once every week to give it a good clean (it feels much softer and smoother after doing that). thats it though.

I wouldn't rule it out. It is supposed to be very good.

I just use a Stila scrub every couple of days (it is meant for daily use).
