General recommendations:
§
It is necessary to protect the client’s eyes with self-adhesive eye shields or dry gauze pads covered with
protective goggles, and secured with elastic around the head.
§
Always work on dry (moisture free) skin.
§
We recommend the use of a hair dryer, set to a low temperature to dry the skin prior to microdermabrasion.
§
We recommend the use of protective mask and vinyl surgical gloves while working.
§
The crystal projection is activated only when an occlusion is created by applying the handpiece on the skin.
§
For comfortable and efficient procedures, always pull the skin taut between thumb and fore- finger.
§
Never apply pressure with the handpiece; the vacuum pressure does the work.
Preparing the skin for microdermabrasion:
Contact lenses must be removed prior to procedure.
Skin cleansing
§
Cleanse the skin with a water based cleansing lotion or gel.
§
Rinse thoroughly with water. The use of toner is not necessary.
§
Dry skin thoroughly.
§
Remove headband since it will be wet following skin cleansing.
§
First, dry skin using tissue paper, then with a hair dryer at a low setting, to insure face surface is completely
dry.
Client preparation
§
Use a clean dry headband or bonnet to cover client’s ears.
§
Protect client’s eyes with self-adhesive shields or gauze pads covered with plastic goggles.
IMPORTANT:
Because crystals are highly susceptible to moisture, it is extremely important that the face be thoroughly dry
to avoid vacuuming any moisture into the tubes, which can result in clumping of the crystals and blockage of
the tubes.

Suggested Settings
A successful microdermabrasion procedure begins by selecting the appropriate tip, number of passes, and vacuum
setting.
The depth of exfoliation depends on the intensity of the suction and number of passes.
Power settings vary between from 1 and 10. The digital display allows for 10 levels of intensity.
