Anyone who is suffering from the following conditions isn’t an ideal candidate for microdermabrasion:
- Active rosacea
- Fragile capillaries or vascular lesions
- Active onset acne
- Warts
- Uncontrolled diabetes
- Open sores
- Active herpes outbreak
Also, you will have to wait for 6-12 months before going for microdermabrasion if you are or were on Accutane. What are the possible side effects?
Once the treatment is over, the chances are that your skin turns red or pink to go along with swelling. Although these conditions are said to go away within 24 hours of the treatment if they don’t consult your physician. Also, few patients may experience a bruising, stinging or burning sensation or their skin may become very sensitive to the sun. These conditions will fade automatically.
If you are prone to dark spots after acne or any skin injury, then you are more vulnerable to dark spots after the treatment.
