Does anyone have Microdermabrasion facials? how much do they cost & have they made a difference to your skin? Thanks

i have just finished a course of 4. they cost £65 per session (an hour each) and my skin was noticably brighter and less spotty after the first one (although they say people start to notice after 3).

yes they were expensive, but i was at the end of my tether with my acne scars and they have reduced considerably, so that I am no longer afraid of going out without makeup

Did you notice your wrinkles (if you have any!) are less noticeable? Did you have the deluxe treatments then seeing they lasted an hour each? Thanks

there was only one type of treatment, and i guess it must have been delux given the time, it was very relaxing, not painful, but the downsides were i couldnt exercise or wear make up for 48 hours afterwards.

I don't want to sound (very) smug, but I don't have many wrinkles (I am early 30's), it was mainly acne scarring I was concerned with, but now you mention it, my laughter lines seem a little less, although I don't come from a wrinkly family so it's hard to tell.

Sorry that wasn't much help was it?

I can't bear the thougth of not wearing make-up for 48 hours, I wouldn't be able to leave the house. I hate the wrinkles underneath my eyes, I think I look dreadful & am sure people notice them all of the time. I also have sensitive skin too. Ugh, what can I do?!!!

Forgot to mention I will do a sample patch test first if I do decide to try the MDA out.
