Microdermabrasion Skin Preparation It's important to follow a few key steps to prepare the skin for microdermabrasion. First, use a band to remove the client's hair from their face. Next, double-cleanse the skin to remove makeup, oil, and dirt. After cleansing, tone the skin to eliminate any impurities stuck in the pores. Be sure to sanitize the area thoroughly using a medicated wipe or alcohol-based solution, and remind the client to refrain from touching the area. It's also crucial to ensure the surface is oil-free to optimize crystal/diamond performance and treatment outcomes. Lastly, wear disposable gloves to maintain a bacteria-free environment. Always follow the Equiptments instruction when using the device.
