Bruising is uncommon after a microdermabrasion treatment. It’s probably due to heavy pressure, excessive suction or medication. If the bruising is caused by burst capillaries, it will go away on its own. If you are taking supplements, discontinue them before your microdermabrasion treatment to avoid bruising.

Their is several products that can help with minimizing the bruising.Such as arnica pallets,arnica gel/cream those are natural remedies that can be found at your local grocery stores.You may also try to ice that area a few times a day. Contact your nearest dermatologist for further help if the problem continues.
