I don't think I'll ever be able to use the coarse red disc, and the black one is for body only.
I'll be switching to the grey one, for very sensitive skin, now that my skin is getting used to the tool.
PMD has a selection of spinning discs of different colors that offer a different exfoliation intensity level: I'm still using the white one which is the gentlest for ultra sensitive skin - my skin is not super sensitive, but it can show redness when rubbed. I also avoid some areas where I know my skin is particularly sensitive, like the very top of my cheekbones, because the suction effect alone makes me turn red there. The key is to pull your skin really taut and keep the device moving quickly.
Once I got the hang of it, it started feeling easier. I ended up with a red circle the size of the spinning disk that took several days to go away. It literally files away the top layer of your skin, so you don't want to mess up with it! I didn't realize just how strong the exfoliation was the first time I used it and I hovered over a spot - something the instructions specifically say you should NOT do. This is a very intense treatment that requires you to strictly follow the instructions and practice on your arms a few times before using the device on your face. The fact that the PMD Microderm is a personal device does not mean that it's less powerful than what you get in-office, and you have to be serious about using it properly. So a tool that allows me to do my own microdermabrasion at home is exactly what I needed! What stopped me was the cost of having it performed at a med spa, way too high for my budget. I was advised to try microdermabrasion to smooth out fine lines by several facialists in the past few years, so this is a treatment that I had been looking into for a while.
The effect is similar to professional microdermabrasion treatments that you could get at a med spa, and long-term results are supposed to include reduction of fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots as well as smoother skin texture. It combines spinning discs coated in aluminum oxide crystals to buff away the upper layer of dead cells on the skin, and vacuum suction to increase circulation and boost the healing process that involves collagen and elastin. With this system, men and women of all skin types are able to rejuvenate their skin using the technology of professional microdermabrasion, without paying for high priced treatments.PMD Microderm Pro ($199) is a personal microdermabrasion device for weekly at-home use.
