I clearly stated this so I won't find anyone sending me grammar corrections as I noticed there's people here more concerned in making negative remarks than actual providing the community with helpful advises

As long as it doesn't peel the skin off before a chemical peel you can apply the mask, be careful that won't go too deep or harsh in the skin because it will be applying a double dose of peelings products I know for fact if after you do any microdermabrasion or exfoliating if you see or feel any spot where the skin is sensitive avoid the chemical peel. I used Jessner ultra. By now the lighter version of peels won't give same effect as I have been doing it for long time, if is your very first time I say avoid doing anything before a chemical peel of any type Good luck and use precautions and lots of common sense, watch and learn your skin before putting anything in it. Thanks

Luckily the burns were very superficial and the discoloration is not too deep, with enough sun protection will be able to keep it from darkening. Right now is slighter lighter than my natural skin tone.
I am posting this comments based on my personal experience and also some other comments I've heard from few other people saying that microdermabrasion can cause some Minos abrasions and naturally when a chemical of this strength is applied is only normal that it will penetrate a lot deeper and can cause Minos (in my case luckily )or in some cases deep burns
I am not here to open an argument with doctors nurses etc I have no interest in getting into a debate with anyone in this forum specially when it comes to my face for which I've been fighting hard against the unfortunate effects of adult acne, I've learned in how to control it and clear it same as getting rid of acne scars that is why I called myself an expert in this matter, not sayng I am a doctor, so please save any comments mal intended, I have o interest in listening to anyone who hasn't gone through a personal experience like I have, you can perform micro, peels, laser you name it but there's always the chance of something's going wrong. Lucky those practitioners whom can say none of this has the wrong, there's always the chance and will always be that particular person who wouldn't be a good candidate.
I go to a professional establishment rated top of the line, we know what we are doing same as myself therefore any negative comments are absoltlyt not necessary nor welcome
Use common sense and think microdermabrasion causes abrasions to the skin, exfoliates , peels ,brings a bare skin to surface , a chemical peel BURNS simple as 123
There's aalways a risk in every single one of this chemicals but I am not implying here not to do it, I made a sanse comment, just be careful
It's obvious that two procedures will cost more than a single one but I say play safe and charge it as a package and have them come a week later once the micro has settled
No debates for me please I will not entertain and will report it, this is a site to help the community by speaking about our own experiences, not brag about a tittle. Save those to your competitors, I am not here soliciting any clients therefore I represent not competition to anyone.
I am a real consumer with personal experiences one who can speak for myself transmit the community what has worked for me or not, who openly post real moments real pics real self.

good comment. I would just add thanks to real self I am staying clear of thermage/thermacool (monopolar rf causes burns but not as frquently as laser side effects), laser, and microdembrasion if I have a skin scan or a dermatologist appointment that rues it out as suitable. I am open minded to Indiba a newer rf plus magnet technolgoy using safter Bipolar technology only 1 person said they lost volume out of many I think, No burns yet. Pitty Indiba has not got its own category. Finally I am most leaning towards Jessner peels on their own or glycolic acid peels, mild facials, skinceuticals reversterol serum and of course LED (the safest of all the treatments) Indiba possibly has the highest risk but I may be wrong about that maybe some of the peels do. I am also leaning to wards derma rolling or dermapen instead of microdermbrasion but dermbrasion seems to be higher rated in the uk than in the states with fewer side effects so provided I see a dermatologist and alos a non dermatologist with a fancy skin scaner machine I should be ok I hope.

Microdermabrasion before chemical peeling can be too harsh and cause burns

User Avatar

Because the skin is bare after a microdermabrasion the chemicals can be harsh in the skin and cause some spots burns, it happened to me in my peel few months before this last one on July 10th and in both cases I got few spots where it did burned, luckily it was superficial and it only discolored a small spot in that sensitive area under the eye, hopefully that pink color will go back to my normal skin tone and won't darken as it did before, it remains pink for couple of months then slowly turned darker, months later I am still trying to get it normal, now this last spots looks a bit more superficial it may go back to its natural color faster
No micro or exfoliating before a chemical peel, that is my opinion, ironically it's not same that most people share , when you go to a Spa it's a common practice to do a microdermabrasion before the peel, I believe it is risky

Here's more photos of the area, the skin is mostly peeled off by today

I have performed many chemabrasions (combination of microdermabrasion and chemical peel), including ones using the Jessner's solution. The key is to find a trained technician (medical aesthetician, plastic surgery/dermatology RN, plastic surgery/dermatology PA/NP, or dermatologist/plastic surgeon/facial plastic surgeon. While spa aestheticians are highly educated, trained, and knowledgeable, medical aesthetics is out of the realm of competency for most and even most RN's and physicians.
