PMD Personal Microderm Classic - At-Home Microdermabrasion Machine with Kit for Face & Body

I’ve been using the PMD Personal Microderm Classic for a few weeks now, and it’s become a core part of my skincare routine. The machine feels solid and ergonomic in hand, and switching between discs and intensity levels is simple—perfect for customizing each session. After cleansing, the gentle suction combined with exfoliating discs delivers a smooth, polished complexion that feels like a mini facial every time.Immediately after use, my skin feels noticeably softer and brighter. Fine lines and dryness are less visible, and my usual serums and moisturizers absorb much better. I’ve also tried it on rough areas like elbows and knees with impressive results—a few passes and the skin feels freshly renewed. Just be sure to follow the prep and aftercare steps in the kit, as recommended. Overall, it’s a professional-level treatment I can do at home—cost-effective, effective, and easy to use.

I bought this on Amazon in August 2024 and have used it only twice. The first time, I was having trouble figuring out how to move the suction evenly across my face. I felt scratches on my face, which I could feel but could not see. A week later, I thought to give it a try again, and I was pulling the suction across my face with more confidence. I felt more scratches and red marks. At one spot, the scratch became a little deep. It took a few days to heal, which became a slight scar. I was upset and waited another week before I had the nerve to try again. I decided to change the grey disc that originally came with it.I tried many times but couldn't get the grey discs out. Unfortunately, I was a day late and missed the return window. I contacted PMD by email and explained my situation. They responded immediately and asked me to send a video of me trying to remove the disc and the purchase info. They sent a return label, and three weeks later, they replaced it with a new PMD. The first thing I did was remove the grey disc and put it back to ensure it was working. Since then, I have used it a few times and don't feel any scratches on my face. From this experience, the disc was stuck too tight the first time, which caused those scratches. My advice is to remove the disc and reinsert it before using PMD. The scar has been getting lighter since I started with the new PMD. My skin feels very soft, and the dark circle under my eyes has greatly improved. I am very happy with the PMD customer support.

I bought this before reading the negative reviews. I ended up scanning them prior to using as I wanted to see of there were any useful tips and became extremely apprehensive.I can confidently say that other's poor results are clearly due to user error and leaving the device in place too long. I suppose there is a bit of a learning curve but you can clearly feel when the device is sucking too long in one spot, you really need to glide it from one area to another or it will certainly leave a mark.This is not going to match a microdermabrasion in a medspa. I even got the higher grit tips as the ones that come arent abrasive enough. It barely makes my face red. But you cant beat the cost for weekly use and it is helping with texture and softness of my skin.

If you want to have perfect skin, and you're over the age of twenty-five, which I certainly am, you need to do microdermabrasion or have it done in a salon. I was having twice monthly treatments in a salon, but that gets to be very expensive and very time consuming. So, since I was so happy with my PMD cleaning system, I decided to invest in a PMD microdermabrasion system I could use at home.There is a slight learning curve with this device, but only very slight. After you use it once or twice, you'll get the hang of it and do just fine. My advice it to keep it moving. Don't let it stay in one place.This device really does exfoliate all the dead, dry skin from your face, even the dead, dry skin you don't think is there. (I use a gentle enzyme peel almost every night, and it does a wonderful job of removing dead, dull skin, so I was surprised, but pleased, that this device removed a lot more I didn't even know was there.) The suction of the device quickly vacuums up that dead skin, leaving your skin fresh and glowing. In addition, the vacuum encourages circulation and the formation of collagen and elastin, and don't we all need that?By removing the layer of dead cells, and make no mistake, after age twenty or so, our skin doesn't shed dead cells like it did when we were a child, your gorgeous, expensive, serums absorb so much more easily, and do their work so much better. It even helps remove superficial lines and wrinkles, and who wants those? I sure don't. (I have tiny pores, and never had blemishes, so I can't speak as to how it works with those, but my guess is, just fine.)I bought the Classic version of this microdermabrasion device because I really didn't think I needed more. One speed is fine with me. This version comes with three discs: very sensitive, sensitive, and moderate. I highly recommend you begin with very sensitive or sensitive until you see how your face reacts. I now use moderate or course discs because I don't have sensitive skin at all, but I did begin with the sensitive to make sure the device wasn't going to be too vigorous for even my skin.After using this device twice a month for several months, I now have a fresh, glowing complexion all the time. I love this device. It's become an indispensable part of my beauty routine. I don't ever want to be without one.
