Microdermabrasion does not hurt although it may sting a little around the eye area. The patient normally works up to increased levels of microdermabrasion penetration to the skin. Your skin may feel a little hot and appear a little pink for the first day. You should be perfectly fine that night. Although really intense microdermabrasion treatments may leave you pink for several days. The technician can turn down the controls if the suction is too strong for you.
