Scratches after Diamond Microdermabrasion and glycolic peel same day. What to do? (photos)

June 1, 2016
Asked By:rachelpoland in Tampa, FL

I had my second diamond microderm treatment today followed by a 65% glycolic peel with a lavender mask placed after. I noticed I had scratches all over my face, obviously from the microderm. Is this user error or is this a normal thing that can happen?? Any suggestions what to apply to it to hasten the healing of these scratches??
