Answer: Bruising This is quite unusual to occur after microdermabrasion. I would advise you to have a check up appointment with your provider. There are several factors that may have caused this. It is either medications that you have been taking or inadequate pressure and suction on the area. Good luck!

Answer: Bruising after microdermabrasion Hi Eagle23,Bruising after microdermabrasion is unusual and likely came from excessive suction or too heavy pressure. It would be best for you to discuss this with your clinician prior to your next treatment. Certain medications and vitamin supplements can also lead to easy bruising and discontinuing these medications prior to the procedure can minimize it from happening again.One effective way to quickly clear bruising is with the Vbeam laser (pulsed dye laser) - one treatment can significantly speed up the time it takes to clear.Good luck!

Answer: Bruising Thank you for your question. Bruising after microdermabrasion may be caused by a deeper treatment of the affected area or because of a more intense application of pressure to the area. As far as helping the bruise heal, arnica gel is very effective in shortening the lifespan of a bruise especially when applied before the bruise appears. - Dr. Dickerson

Answer: Bruises come from trauma That bruise could be from the trauma of microdermabrasion as typically the microdermabrasion treatment involves pushing on the skin. Dermend is used to treat bruising- it has vitamin K & arnica in it.
