I have rheumatoid arthritis. Can I do the SilkPeel Dermalinfusion on my face? With no complications?

Question

Martie Gidon, MD, FRCPC, FAAD · Answer

SilkPeel Dermalinfusion combines diamond tip microdermabrasion that gently exfoliates the skin with the infusion of specialty serums.  Depending on the skin type, the aesthetician may chose a clarifying, hydrating, brightening or lightening serum.  In the hands of an experienced aesthetician, this is a mild treatment that can be used on most patients, including those with rheumatoid arthritis.  Remember to use sun protection afterwards.

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

Silkpeels are treatments that gently exfoliate skin while simultaneously infusing solutions chosen for your skin type and skin issues. This treatment will have no effect on your RA regardless of the infusions selected. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and 
cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion. Seek in-person 
treatment with a trained medical professional for appropriate care."
