A member asked:
When are you a candidate for a microdermabrasion or chemical peel ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No age limit: Microdermabrasions and gentle chemical peels can be very helpful in treating teenagers with acne. As we age, the skin turnover slows down. Microdermabrasions and peels will keep the turnover and new skin production going resulting in younger looking skin. It is perfectly reasonable to starting in your 20's and 30's to delay the aging process.
