It is similar to skin exfoliation such as a home scrub that rubs tiny grains on the skin’s surface. It can be used on multiple areas of the body including the face, neck, arms, hands and chest.

The results of microdermabrasion are the same without the invasive nature, bleeding and slow recovery period of dermabrasion.
