I use the PMD anywhere between 5-7 days apart. I use PMD at night. I cleanse before and after PMD use. The PMD causes some redness to skin as expected. It causes inflammation to heal and generate healthy new skin. Do not use under eyes. I have been using for 4 weeks and have noticed a huge decrease in my acne scars! Do not use on active acne pustules. Avoid those areas. I have noticed a decrease in my acne pustules and black heads too. I love this product. You can run the PMD two times over one area on your face but I don't recommend it, one time has been enough for me. You must use a moisturizer afterwards. I also use jojoba face serum afterwards with a moisturizer. I have not had any negative side effects besides the expected redness (which subsides within an hour) and facial dryness. I have used the PMD on arms and hands and after two weeks, my body feels like butter! I really love this product. Take your time with it. Do not push down on your face and lightly hover over it. I use the blue disk. I have sensitive skin.
I bought the PMD to use on my face (I'm 33 and I don't have many wrinkles, but I do get melasma in the summer on my upper lip and have clogged pores in a few spots) and so far I am not pleased with it. I have used the least abrasive of the heads and it still leaves tiger striped scratches on my cheeks that take days to go away. It doesn't work at all on my nose because it can't get suction, and i have tried it on my chin where i always seem to have an outcropping of clogged pores but have noticed no difference there. My melasma fades a lot in the winter so I haven't had a chance to see if it does anything for that- I will have to wait for summer. I started using it mainly on my body since it wrecks my face, and it seems to not do enough there. I have keratosis pilaris (chicken skin) on my inner knees (year round) and upper arms (mainly just in the winter), and although it does seem to help my upper arms if I do it regularly, it doesn't do anything for the skin on my knees. I also have a little KP on my upper outer thighs and that hasn't been affected by the PMD either. All in all it hasn't shown any benefit for any of my ailments and is too harsh for my face. Maybe it works magic on wrinkles but I can't recommend this product based on my personal experience.

I just didn't used it properly and finally returned it after first use. TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE INSTRUCTIONS PLEASE
Sara from South Dakota
I'm so happy with the results, even after one use. I made sure to watch a tutorial and read instructions to avoid a burn, which is from user error, not the product. I noticed right away how much brighter my skin is- even my husband commented how my skin was glowing. Afterwards, I definitely noticed I had to use less product because my skin had better absorption. I had been going back and forth for a while on purchasing, and finally did when there was a sale. I wish I had purchased this long ago!! Totally worth it. If you're contemplating- go for it, read instructions- you won't be disappointed.

Astonishing results. I have had numerous facials and tried nearly every product on the market. I also own the PMD Body and have tried other PMD devices. This is singlehandedly the most impressive device I have used. In 6 weeks it has transformed my skin. I am 44 years old. My skin was ok, slightly uneven tone, some marks and fine lines. My skin tone is now amazing, all marks have disappeared and fine lines slightly diminished too. I am asked frequently what products I am using. People do not believe I am not wearing make up. I love this product. In terms of ease of use - the practise setting is great. Try it a couple of times and then move through the different settings. I haven't even reached coarse yet and have seen the results. I use 1/2 times a week. I use it with a very basic moisturiser. Salon level results at a fraction of the price. Just a fantastic, must have device! And it's well price compared to a lot of other brands and their devices.

Had tried this multiple times on myself, followed directions, changed the disks. Left major open spots on my face every time. No matter how careful I was or what I did. Definitely not worth doing at home. This is something for the professionals to use for sure.

This stopped working after 5 months of little use, like I said I only used it maybeeeee once a week sometime every two weeks and now I plug it in and it won't do anything! It's useless
Andie from California
Got this as a gift and do not even see the point. Can't tell any difference after many uses. I seriously do not fell like there are any benefits.

The first time using this my face was in pain but my skin turned out beautiful after putting cream on. After the 2nd & 3rd time using this my face started breaking out. I have sensitive to dry skin. My face is now super dry so I stopped using this product. I used this once a week before.

Ruined my face for at least a week! Used the lightest setting with the most sensitive head on it and still left scabs!
Desi from Van nuys
I have what look like burns on one side of my face . This was the second time using it first time was fine second I look horrible and my face hurts so bad
Beverly from Providence
I was definitely able to buy other things with the $160 I spent on this product, basically it did nothing but burn my face. :(

I have used the PMD Classic for 11 years, and love that I can give myself a quality microdermabrasion treatment in the privacy if my own home. PMD has resurfaced and smoothed my skin, giving it a healthy glow!
Jennifer from Florida
My skin is to sensitive. Almost looks like it burnt my face.
Mel from Charlotte,NC
This microdermabrasion device is dangerous. It doesn't move smoothly across your face thus it takes off more than one layer of skin leaving you with red streaks that last for days. Don't waste your money.

I would recommend this product for as a great tool for exfoliating the face. It does what it claims to do. My face feels soft and looks a lot better after having this product.
CiCi from Pittsburgh PA
I have asked my esthetician for microdermabrasion but she felt my skin would be too sensitive. I am 57 with texture and pore issues. I bought this at home device with the intention of using it in problem areas. I hadn't used tretenoin in 5 days but wanted to use it Friday to give my face time to heal before heading back to work on Monday. Directly after the treatment I had stripes of severe chafing and a few red spots. My face was very dry and tight and felt burnt. I debated returning it believing my skin is either too sensitive for this device or tretenoin use should have been stopped for the entire 7 days before. However, it is now Tuesday and my skin has healed, texture is smoother and pores are smaller. So I'm very pleased and happy with this purchase. Next time I will follow directions regarding tretenoin and remember results can take 4-5 days.

I bought this for skin care but my skin got bruised and torn. Every skin reacts differently and mine didn't like it. It did help get gunk out but I will be returning it.

I got good exfoliation results the first few times I used the PMD tool. I eventually ended up with a lot of broken capillaries after my third usage. I got a lot of them suddenly on my cheek. I just wouldn't recommend such a strong tool if you have sensitive skin.
Liz from Pennsylvania
I love this thing. I use it twice a week with the red coarse disks. I have bumpy skin and congested pores, and after a year of incorporating this into my routine I can see deep blackheads making their way to the surface and revealing a fresh layer of clean skin 😻 I love my PMD. I've never used the body disks, just face, but I love how new my skin feels after using this.
Stef from Dallas, TX
Affordable, easy to use, nice alternative to salon!
Mel B. from Slc, UT
This device is amazing! It makes my skin brighter and my skin feels so smooth. I originally bought this device to help with pigment issues and after using it consistently every week I've noticed significant improvement. It takes a few minutes a week to get great results and easy to incorporate into beauty routine

I have combo skin and I personally love it! If you have down to earth expectations for this device then it's great. It works well once weekly in lieu of going to a pro. Different discs for different skin situations is great as well. Many who say it does not do much for their skin probably don't realize that the suction is not meant to be a miracle for your blackheads nor other conditions. The suction is simply to remove a superficial dead skin layer that would probably not benefit product absorption etc.... I personally think it does what it says. Only complaint is that the discs only last 3-4 uses which ultimately involves more discs purchase.
Jay from Illinois
This product is good for exfoliation. It brings up the whiteheads and deep stubborn bumps that won't come up. Would recommend!!
Lorraine from Seagrove,nc
Can mess your face up! Only pros should operate this. Previously owned another similar product. But dropped it and broke it. This product not near as good. Very dangerous, not safe.
CC from Sacramento CA
Did not use after seeing it needs to stay plugged in to use.
Mo from texas
I followed the directions exactly as written. I watched the demo video multiple times. I followed everything exactly as instructed and it ripped my skin to shreds. I was bleeding after the first use. I don't have sensitive or thin skin. I never return products, but I'll be returning this item.
