The PMD Personal Microderm is an amazing new home beauty tool.
The Personal Microderm device uses the same aluminum oxide crystals that are used during professional treatments in a spa or doctor's office to give you a smooth, glowing complexion at home!
The PMD Personal Microderm is a great new device for microdermabrasion at home. Dr. Mark Taylor, one of the top five laser surgeons in the world, tested the device on seven patients at the Gateway Aesthetic Institute and Laser Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. Each of the patient did fifteen treatments at home. All of the the patients achieved excellent results and were happy with the PMD Personal Microderm treatments.
Clinical examinations and with before and after photography, proved that patients can achieve an improved skin appearance equal to the results we are able to obtain with our clinical microdermabrasion system in the clinic.
The greatest improvement will be seen in patients with early texture changes, sun damaged skin, uneven sun freckling, early seborrheic keratoses (small warty growths on the skin), mild comedonal (whitehead and blackheads) acne, and conditions where there is a buildup of dead skin like that seen in keratosis pilaris which causes bumpy skin on the arms and cheeks. The PMD personal microderm also smooths the skin to give a more even makeup application and to to remove minor skin blemishes.
The Personal Microderm System includes:
PMD Personal Microderm offers you the following benefits:
- Aluminum Oxide Crystals remove dull, dead skin cells.
- Treats aging, sun damaged, acne-prone, and scarred skin.
- Promotes collagen production and cell renewal.
- Personal Microderm uses Crystals and a Vacuum in conjunction to clear away dead cells.
- Enhance skin texture and eliminate dullness by gently resurfacing.
- Reduce fine lines found on the forehead and around the mouth.
- Smoothes hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage, aging and melasma.
- Allows for better absorption of serums, lotions and creams.
- Exfoliates and cleans pores, making them appear smaller over time.
- Helps smooth and reduce scars caused by acne or burns.
Before You Begin...
When using microdermabrasion, it's very important to be aware of your specific skin type. Sensitive skin types should take caution and be gentle during treatment. Tougher skin types can be more aggressive with treatment.
WARNING - Hovering in one place too long may cause irritation and result in a scab.
Step 1: Assembly
Place chosen disc on motor shaft and simply push on tightly to attach. To remove disc, pull off of
shaft. Place the cap over the disc. Screw 1/4 turn and seal tightly. There must be a seal in order
to create the vacuum and suction. Connect cord to unit and power supply and plug in.
Important: There are 2 disc sizes, one for the body and one for the face. Small Disc: Use the
small disc around tight spots on the nose or where your bones won't allow suction. The large
disc should only be used on the body.
STEP 2: Wash Your Skin
Cleanse and wash the treatment area. Remove all oil, makeup, and dirt. Make sure your hair is out of the way and covered or pulled back off of your face.
Pull your skin taught for a smooth surface. Place your fingers on the skin and stretch it so that it's tight where the tip will make contact. Keep the unit moving constantly over your skin during treatment.
Important: do not hover in one spot.
Be sure the cap is flush with your skin, maintaining even contact. This will ensure proper suction. The motor sound will change when suction occurs.
STEP 4: Treatment
Use light pressure with your first few treatments. As you become skilled with the tool, you can be more aggressive and use more pressure. Be careful not to grind too deep on the skin. Move the disc in upward and horizontal motions until you have treated all areas of the skin. If you have trouble spots, take a little more time on those areas. Be careful not to press too hard or stay too long.
STEP 5: Cell Renewal
Use our recommended products or your own. The cell rejuvenation and renewal serums and creams are essential to the healing process and
recovery. Use them daily in between treatments.
•Apply treatment toner. This neutralizes the pH balanceof your skin and prepares the skin for the recovery moisturizer. Wait 5 minutes.
•Apply a recovery moisturizer or a cell renewal lotion or serum.
•Use sunscreen for at least 3 days after your treatment; your skin will be extra sensitive.
•Cosmetics may be applied after the treatment.
STEP 6: Follow-Up and Maintenance
Clean the white filter and residue out of the cap and motor shaft. Clean with a damp cloth in and around motor shaft. Replace discs every two to three treatments. For maximum effectiveness, the abrasive on the discs must be fresh.
Recommended usage: Once a week.
Note: The Green has moderate grit, and the Blue Disc is for sensitive skin. Red Discs with a coarse grit for more aggressive treatments are also available.
