PMD Microdermabrasion Review and Giveaway!
Ever since puberty, I’ve had an issue with acne. And, since I inherited my Father’s skin, it has caused my skin to scar badly. I’ve tried a bunch of different treatments, proactive, oxyclean, clearsil, anything with teatree oil, but suffice it to say, nothing has really made an impact that lasted more than a handful of months. I had heard about PMD Microdermabrasion a while ago. As a daughter of a woman that works in the world of beauty, you tend to pick up on a few things.
This is such a cool at home treatment, and it’s far cheaper than going to a dermatologist.
Benefits of PMD Microdermabrasion
- Makes your skin smooth, taking away the dull and rough outer layer of skin
- reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and scars.
- Helps minimize pours.
- Evens skin tone, by leveling the pigmentation
- And, it even reduces the formation of acne
After the second week of using PMD, I saw a difference in my skin. First of all, I noticed that it had taken away the tan on my face. But, I guess that’s what I asked for once I started using a Personal Microdermabrasion…which is essentially a dead skin sucking vacuum. The biggest difference that I noticed was in my acne scars. They’re not entirely faded yet, but they are remarkably less noticeable (and, as I say this I really wish I had taken a before and after picture so you guys could witness the big difference that it has made).
I will forewarn you though, using the PMD for the first time is kind of scary. I say this because the second you put it to your skin it makes this loud sucking/vacuum sound. I might have had my Mother help me the first time I used it, because I was frightened that I might leave it in one spot for too long. Because, it has mentioned both online, and in the DVD that leaving it in one place for too long can cause a burn like sensation.
Overall, I think the Personal microderm is definitely something to invest in. It’s at a retail value of $179.99, and once you take in to consideration the fact that one Microdermabrassion session with a dermatologist is about the same value; you’re going to be saving time AND money in the long run with a PMD.

August 5, 2012 at 2:36 pm (292 days ago)I battle cystic acne so I have several scars that I would love to see fade or disappear completely. I also for some reason have starting having darker spots in some places on my face (I’m sure it’s from being in the sun – even with a good sunblock). I’d love to see if this would even out my complexion too.
