LOVE THIS MACHINE!!
Ladies: To Those Wanting At-Home Facial Treatments....🧖🏻♀️✨I’ve been doing my own Microderm and chemical peels for years. After working in the Beauty industry for a number of years, I was taught, as well as picked up, lots of techniques/tips. I don’t advocate for an “unskilled” person to necessarily do their own chemical peels, as it’s so easy to mess up/damage your face. HOWEVER, Microderm is pretty fool-proof (if you can follow directions).I had been using my Old-Faithful, “PMD” Microderm machine for probably 7+ years until it finally finally gave its last dance.... Since then, I’ve been researching like crazy to find another, at-home micro machine that would offer comparable results.💁🏻♀️💁🏻♀️I’m SUPER excited to have found this little gem 💎🎉🎉...The suction-power of the “Appolus”is truly impressive. I’m pretty used to these types of treatments, but putting it on the “highest” setting was too much for me...This baby is literally the cost of a single treatment (and 1/3rd the price of my beloved PMD), so it pays for itself in the first use...Key factors 🧖🏻♀️🔐:▪️ wash and DRY you face prior to use. That means wait 10-15+ minutes until your skin no longer feels moist or dewy to the touch. DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ON YOUR SKIN. You will moisturize/tone after...▪️ KEEP THE SKIN TAUT. This means hold the area you’re working on, *lightly* pulling the opposite direction you’re suctioning. You do NOT want the suction to take hold of your skin to the point it’s pulling it in whatever direction you’re going. This will actually be counterproductive and cause wrinkles, rather than alleviate their appearance.▪️ On your cheeks: work towards the jawline. In other words, horizontally-not vertically.▪️HOWEVER, on your forehead (which I find is the hardest area), you want to work vertically, NOT horizontally (even though horizontal is easier to complete on this section).▪️do not do multiple passes - especially on your first use. Keep track of the areas you’ve passed over by going in straight lines, lightly overlapping prior areas. (Think of it like cutting the grass: have a map of your course and don’t deviate from it).▪️🙏🏼 Be especially careful of the 👀 *eye area* 👀 🙏🏼 This area is SO delicate and it’s SO easy to pop a blood vessile that will likely take laser treatments to remove (take it from me re: prior aggressive estheticians 😩) Lower the setting and make SURE the skin is especially taut, doing a very light pass, ⚠️NEVER TREATING THE WHOLE EYE AREA!!!⚠️☝🏼☝🏼I can’t stress this enough. If you aren’t an esthetician (even if you are), it’s so not worth the risk of possible/probably damage. Only go as high as where your cheek meets the bottom of your eye area (think of your “eye area” as wearing large goggles. If you have a crease towards the bottom of your eye area (as most of us do🤷🏻♀️), do not go beyond that line. Leave that for the Pros....▪️Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate after!! Use a good replenishing moisturizer. Remember: you just stripped your face of all its dead skin, natural sebum, etc. Hydration is SO vital after!! Give your skin a much needed drink of water....▪️I like to alternate between micro and chem peels weekly: microderm on Sunday; light chem peel following Sunday. (This is actually rather aggressive, not the “norm”).📢 Listen to your skin. If it hurts, lower the setting. 📢Don’t be overly aggressive: we all want results as quickly as possible, but the possibility of permanent damage is real if you bypass your body’s signals of “trauma”. Pain IS beauty, but not in this instance. You will build up a tolerance over time and will be able to slowly increase the settings to more aggressive as your skin adapts and adjusts....🚨🚨PS - MAKE SURE YOU USE SUNSCREEN AFTER! Your skin is especially delicate after treatments and SUPER susceptible to hyperpigmentation, as well as other damage. Use a gentle cleanser (NOTHING that “exfoliates”), a good moisturizer, sunscreen and make SURE - NO POPPING/PICKING ACNE!!! You will 💯% scar if you do!! ☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼🚨🚨ANYWAY! If anyone is interested, just thought I’d share....#NewLove #UnpaidReview #Quarantine2020BeautySecrets #LoveTheSkinYoureIn

A MUST HAVE!
This is one of the best things I’ve ever bought for myself. I swear I was SO skeptical at first. I never thought it would really work this well!!! I never had a single pimple until my mid 20s...which we’ll just say was around 10 yrs ago lol...Then I suddenly had a full on ACNE problem out of nowhere! I tried almost everything to control it. The best I could do was use $40 face wash and acne pads every single day to minimize the break outs for the most part, but still would get around 10 new pimples a month or more. Since buying this a month ago I have only gotten THREE new pimples and haven’t had to use a single acne pad. I’m only using it once a week. I use the suction head first on my whole face and then the microdermabrasion head. It takes about a half hour all together. The redness is gone within a few hours and it doesn’t hurt at all. Just make sure you do your research and is it RIGHT. Too slow or too fast with your movements can cause bruising or hickies for lack of a better term. However it’s so worth the time and money when done right. I promise!!

Must have!
This product has proven to be dependable. Higher suction power then the Michael Todd one that I also bought. I gave it 4 stars only due to the position of the power button. I seem to constantly hit it and shut it off when in use. Perhaps they could move it in the next design or change it to be something that isn’t so easily changed to the off position. This this has such crazy suction power that I actually ended up with some bruises that appeared like Hickeys one on my chin, nose, and jaw line! Be careful. Over all great value for the $ as compared to other brands out there

Broken after a week
This product was great when I first used it. It did what it was intended to do initially. Unfortunately, one week later I charged it and it wouldn’t turn on. I tried unplugging it and recharging it. The green light would illuminate showing a charge but it still didn’t turn on.I had to return it. I recommend investing in a better machine. I bought the Trophy Skin Microdermabrasion machine and it was worth every penny!!! I use it every week.

Great value and it works!
I love this machine! I had a good one I purchased from hsn. It worked very well for awhile then overheated and never worked again. Every other one I saw like that one ran a price of $200+. I wasn’t prepared to pay that much but was still on the lookout for a good one. When I read the reviews on this one and saw the affordable price I decided to give it a try. So glad I did. The suction power is fantastic and my skin looked so much better after one use. I love the additional attachments that clean blackheads out of your pores, it even has a light therapy setting on it! My old one didn’t even have that. Luv luv luv its a winner!

Harsh on Face
It’s actually really harsh on your face, It does what it says it’s supposed to do but you have to leave the machine on the part of the face you want to remove blackheads for longer, which results in leaving your face with marks, which tend to last a couple of days, depending on how long you left the machine on that part of your face.

Salon quality!
Wow. I generally don’t write reviews but I am someone who reads them all the time before purchasing a product. This machine is amazing! I worked as an aesthetician and performed Microderm all the time and this little machine for less than $100, rivals the salon one in my opinion. The suction is surprisingly strong - I assumed that I would need to start out on level III but had to turn it down to level one. You have so many different choices for the diamond tip depending on which area of the face or body you want to work on which is a great bang for your buck. If you’re considering getting this, just do it because you will be so happy. After only one treatment, it pays for itself and obviously your skin will feel and look baby smooth. Go buy this now!
