It exfoliates, plucks and penetrates.
I have microdermabrasion on Wednesday. Also on Saturdays. It's been that way ever since I started incorporating the MicrodermMD into my skin care routine, and I plan on using the device indefinitely.
Five months ago, I came across Trophy Skin's best-selling device, the Microderm MD. I've been looking for at-home alternatives to the popular HydraFacial, which injects a serum into the dermis to specifically brighten, soothe and unclog pores in 30 minutes.

Housed in an aesthetically pleasing flip case, the device comes with all of the aforementioned interchangeable tips and a suction cup that attaches to a flexible tube inside the device to hold each tip in place. There's also a digital display inside that tells you exactly where to put the wand and at what time.
Microdermabrasion is my favorite feature of MicroDermMD. The diamond tip only takes five minutes to use. I like to use it in auto mode, which guides you through the face, neck and décolleté areas and adjusts absorption intensity accordingly (less absorption in thin areas like the skin under the eyes, and more absorption in thicker areas). cheeks). Sensitive mode, which requires gentler suction during treatment, and manual mode also lets you choose the adventure.

Simply replace the microderma tip, a gentle coarse exfoliator designed to unclog tight pores. I use it on the sides of my nose where my pores are narrower. Finally, there's a wide, smooth-surfaced infusion tip for infusing your favorite serums deep into the skin.
I am amazed at the smooth and glowing skin that MicrodermMD produces every time I use it. Buyers echo similar sentiments about the device, with one 47-year-old reviewer saying it "turns back the clock" and another saying they've "done extensive research on a number of microdermabrasion systems." their favorite
The adage "you get what you pay for" is true for this device, the $300 starting price is a bit steep, but even if you can afford to trade it in, it's worth it. However, there's a big discount going on right now, 33 percent off for a total of about $100.
I have loved MicrodermMD since I started using it; months later I'm still in awe. If premium microdermabrasion, plus extractions and infusions, minutes from the comfort of your own home sounds impressive, I encourage you to take advantage while the sale lasts.
