It is done to give the skin an even tone, a younger appearance and to remove scars.<\/p><p>Microdermabrasion does not give permanent results and needs several sessions to show effect. It is not painful as it is non-invasive.<\/p><p>According to the American Academy of Dermatology, if done correctly by an expert, one session lasts for approximately one hour. The expert usually takes about 35-40 minutes for the face area and 20 minutes for the neck.<\/p><p>If you are undergoing microdermabrasion for younger looking skin and to reduce wrinkles, you may need anything from 5-16 sittings before you see visible results. There are home DIY kits also available these days.

Do this even if there is minimal sunlight and rainy weather as your skin gets sensitive to the sun after microdermabrasion.<\/li><li>Hydrate yourself from within by\u00a0drinking a lot of water\u00a0throughout the day. Eat fruits and vegetables that are high in water content such as cucumbers and watermelons.<\/li><li>Do not touch the skin of your face; if it itches or forms bumps, do not scratch or pluck on the area.<\/li><li>Avoid the use of products that have strong and harsh chemicals as ingredients, like exfoliating scrubs and tanning solutions.<\/li><li>Do not wax the skin of your face, use hair removal creams or any other procedure to\u00a0remove facial hair\u00a0for a minimum of two weeks after a microdermabrasion procedure.<\/li><li>If you feel pain in any part of your face, or the redness doesn\u2019t subside, it could be that your skin is infected and needs to be checked by a dermatologist.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ec51f59 ob-harakiri-inherit ob-has-background-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ec51f59\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_use_harakiri&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_harakiri_writing_mode&quot;:&quot;inherit&quot;,&quot;_ob_postman_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_widget_stalker_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_poopart_use&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_shadough_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_allow_hoveranimator&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"chemical-peel-versus-microdermabrasion\" class=\"heading2\">Chemical Peel Versus Microdermabrasion<\/h2><p>Depending on the problem you want to resolve &#8212; acne scars, wrinkles,\u00a0dull skin\u00a0or age spots and crow\u2019s feet &#8212; you can consider alternative options to microdermabrasion.
