Combining Microdermabrasion and Light Chemical Peels

I heard a combination of microdermabrasion and a light peel can do wonders for the skin.  How often should the treatments be performed, and which should be done first? Can microdermabrasion be alternated with mild exfoliating pads instead of a light peel to produce a similar effect?? Thanks in advance. Brenda
