Those of you out there who have had a microdermabrasion facial, is it any good? I am 35 with no real skin issues other than a little dryness. Groupon have 3 for £45 in my area at the moment. Thanks

Amazing! I had one and it was fab. My skin felt fantastic afterwards for days. I am 46 and my skin was quite dry. Got rid of all the dryness/dead skin cells.

I had a chemical peel last week and didn't find that as good.

I had a course of them on the run up to my wedding a few years ago and it was great because my skin had broken out and got congested. It sorted my skin out. Worth a go if you feel like treating yourself

did you have it partyhats?

Does anyone know if it leaves your skin red for a length of time after you've had it done? I am going to book an appointment but need to know if i'll have to hide away for a few days afterwards!

Also I have a bit of an acne break out on my chin, would they be able to do microdermabrasion on that area? Or would it damage the skin more?

Microdermabrasion can be a great boost for mild dryness and overall skin freshness. It gently removes dead skin, making your face feel smoother and helping your products absorb better. Many people around your age notice a healthy glow after a few sessions. The Groupon deal sounds worth trying, especially if it’s a reputable place. You can also check local spa reviews on the Sitback app to compare options before booking.
