Is microdermabrasion bad for darker skin? (Photos)

Hi, Thank you for posting your question here. Well, microdermabrasion is a very subtle treatment which is performed for various indications especially to improve your skin quality. It is safe for all skin types. It is unlikely to develop hypopigmentation post microdermabrasion. Kindly meet your provider. 

Microdermabrasion is safe for all skin tones.  To be safe, please create a post stating a list of products being used along with treatment over past 3 years.  Products like hydroquinone are made to be used in short duration and could be the cause of your hypopigmentation

Good day, and thank you for your question.

Microdrrmabrasion is safe for all skin types, however it also depends on the person administering the treatment and what they are using. When working with deeper skin tones one must be a little more cautious not to use aggressive pressure especially starting out. It is definitely a gradual process. But to answer your question, ideally microdermabrasion gives beautiful results for all skin types. I advise you to seek counsel from your board certified dermatologist for a more tailored response for your specific situation.

I truly hope this helps, good luck to you!
