After having microdermabrasion on my arms, when i washed my hands, i noticed scratches on my arms and wanted to know if this is normal?

Abrasion: Microdermabrasion is just minute abrasions which may get too deep leading to noticeable abrasion . For a procedure involving a larger area, a few scratches may not be avoidable and will likely heal in a week or two.
