So, I had the chemical peel, with the suction. The chemical peel is rough and is rubbed on your face, then the aesthetician allows it to sit, then takes it off with either a rub the "abrasion" and the suction. I thought I had no dirt, but looking at the fallout, my pores were dirty... And the aesthetician said that my stuff wasn't that bad!

If you have had major facial difficulties, I am unsure if the microdermabraision will affect anything like that, it is likened too a deep pore vacuum cleaning--which does allow for "skin regeneration" to occur. YOU SHOULD NOT BE COMPLETELY RED WITH MAJOR BUMPS!!! So, if you do choose this course, say you are allergic to EVERYTHING, and the abrasion materials won't be too harsh on your skin.

And interact with your aesthetician, he or she will appreciate sharing how to bring out your best facial health.
