Microdermabrasion Risks and Side Effects

Many people who undergo microdermabrasion of the skin at home or at a spa or skin care center experience no side effects. A significant minority of microdermabrasion users, however, experience:
  1. Redness
  2. Itching
  3. Scaling and flaking of the skin
  4. Drying of the skin
For these users of the technique, the skin may look and feel as if it had been sunburned for anywhere from 2 days to 1 week. Even though users are advised to avoid direct sunlight and to use moisturizer after treatment, avoiding sunlight and using moisturizer will not stop or accelerate the healing of the redness, itching, scaling, and flaking that sometimes occur. Moisturizer will, of course, compensate for drying of the skin.

Microdermabrasion can cause trouble to acne skin

Microdermabrasion can also have an undesirable effect on acne. Many people using microdermabrasion to lighten acne scars find that the removal of the top layer of the skin allows acne bacteria to spread and grow, resulting in more pimples and breakouts wherever the machine has been applied to the face!

And on rare occasions the abrasive crystals can find their way into the lungs or eyes, although ocular and pulmonary complications are rare.

A better way to smooth the skin is ultrasound skin therapy

Fyola ultrasound removes dead skin, not living skin. The gentle pulse of the ultrasound machine is just enough to remove the invisible flakes of skin that can keep wrinkles taut or block pores, but not enough to damage healthy cells.

Also, ultrasound creates microscopic channels through the skin that are wide enough to admit nutrients but too narrow for harmful bacteria, viruses, fungi, or dirt. This property means that using Fyola results in side benefits rather than side effects. Any nutrient of healing compound placed on the skin before ultrasound can reach deep into the skin with the help of Fyola treatment.
