Will Microdermabrasion Affect Juvederm Results?

Does Microdermabrasion Decrease the Effects of Juviderm if You Scrub the Area Too Hard

A: Microdermabrasion is safe after fillers

If the treatment is done a few days after the fillers then there shouldn't be any problem. When we do microdermabrasion in my office we don't press down so hard on the tissue that it would really be an issue. Be aware that the exfoliation creates the best results when given as a series of treatments at least 3 to 4 weeks apart.

Good luck!

Thin Skin, Prone to Hyperpigmentation. Can I Get Microdermabrasion?

Is Microdermabrasion Possible in my Situation? Skin Feels Thin and I'm Prone Hyperpigmentation. 26yrs Old

A: Do I need dermabrasion?

I think, from what you have said, it would not be a good idea. You may need a good sunscreen, of at least spf 45, to keep from further damaging your skin AND to keep the hyperpigmentation down to its barest minimum. You should wash with gentle hands, not scrub or rub, and use something that leaves you feeling clean and fresh. Cetaphil and Cerave are two product lines for those with sensitive skin that is easily bothered. Skip the microdermabrasion!
