What is the recommended frequency for performing microdermabrasion treatments?

Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure that exfoliates the skin, promoting cell turnover and improving skin texture. The recommended frequency for performing microdermabrasion treatments is typically every week. This allows for adequate time between treatments for the skin to heal and regenerate, maximizing the benefits while minimizing the risk of over-exfoliation or irritation.

Weekly sessions help maintain the desired results, particularly for clients who are targeting specific skin concerns like fine lines, uneven texture, or acne scars. It's important for estheticians to assess the individual needs of each client, as factors like skin type and sensitivity may influence the frequency.

Treatments too close together, such as every day, could lead to skin irritation and compromise the skin's barrier function. While treatments every month may allow for some skin improvement, they may not provide the continuous improvement sought after with microdermabrasion. Similarly, sessions every six months do not allow for the regular maintenance that can lead to optimal and cumulative results. Therefore, every week strikes the right balance for most clients seeking ongoing skin enhancement through microdermabrasion.
