Has anyone had facial microdermabrasion?

Is it worth it? How long does it last? Did it make a difference to your pores? And is it the sort of thing where once you start, you have to keep having it?

I love micro dermabrasion and it makes such a difference to my skin and pores. I've had it a few times now and the only thing I'd say is to book in for when you don't mind going makeup free for 24 hours afterwards.

You can have it as a course of 6 every other week for best results (this was advised by my beautician) or as a stand alone treatment.

I've had it done a few times over the years, I really rate it. If my skin is having a bit of a dull or bumpy phase I'll book in and have another session 6 weeks later, that's usually all it takes.

I had it done about 15 years ago after I'd been on the depo contraceptive injection and it had reeked absolute havoc with my skin, which had left some scars. I think I had quite an 'aggressive' session of it as my skin was very red afterwards for about 2 days but it made such an enormous improvement.

I got it again a year later and it seemed gentler and didn't do as much then (but I was starting from a better position that time). I haven't had it since then, I just use a clarisonic now!

Thank you, it sounds amazing!
