Has anyone tried it? Did you really see any results? What did you use it for? Wrinkles? Acne? How many sessions did you have?

Yes it really worked. It gets rid of the dry skin, also removes sun spots. I had 5 treatments. Worth the money

I've had one session only, 2 weeks ago, because I have a few fine wrinkles under my eyes, as well as some acne and pigmented patches. I don't know about long term, but one session did very little to change that. I paid for a 2 session pack though, so I'll do the second one and see.

I tried it for fine line and it works. first I tried the professional ones (six sessions) but it was expensive and I had to go back every few month to maintain it. Now I am using microdermabrasion home kit by Mary Kay and it basically is doing the same thing as professional ones for the fracture of the price.

It's sandblasting, essentially...
Microderm Abrasion literally takes layes of dead skin off, and reveals newer, younger skin beneath. It is said to remove wrinkles, and help with acne... but you have to remember... your skin recedes and sloughs off naturally, and using abrasion is NOT natural.
Your skin is very resilient... it can take quite a bit of abuse... but if you continure abusing it, it adapts to teh change (much like when you get a callous because your shoes rub the same spot over and over)...
The side effects are premature aging (your skin ages faster) or a thickening of the skin. While the thickening it not typically noticeable... it can lead to further problems with acne and such.
A few times though? You're fine...

i've had a couple of sessions and all i can say is that it worked for me. before, i used to have scars because of my pimples but just after some days when i underwent the procedure, most of the scars were gone.

Yes, it does. I use AVON's Microdermabrasion for wrinkles, scars.

it works, but some people don't react well. My mom had to go to the Emergency Room after using it because it burned her skin very, very badly!!!
