For what I read and I can see, it looks that those diamond tips don't rotate, and I think a real micro dermabrasion would. Is that right?

No, neither one rotates. This unit does an exceptional job. I have now purchased my second one for my daughter who was impressed after a brief visit home and used the unit twice. Needless to say, after 2 weeks she asked if I could order one for her because of the difference she saw in her skin.

No, it does not rotate. But in my experience having professional microdermabrasion, they don't rotate either. Trust me, you really don't want it to rotate-it would take your hide off!

As the Trophy Skin representative, we want to point out that our filters are sized and made for Trophy Skin microderm devices only. They will fit into the MicrodermMD and RejuvadermMD and should not be purchased for use with any other microderm machines. Thanks!

as far as I can tell, it only spins in one direction and can not be reversed. Personally, in 26 years of grinding toenails, I've never had a dremel that reversed. Perhaps there is such a thing, but I've never seen one.

Its hard to say because every scar is different. Only time will tell. The idea makes sense...tiny micro pinholes would allow the cream/ointment/treatment to get just below the surface. I bought both the .25 mm and the .5 mm. The .25 mm felt too superficial. I tend to scar easily and the 0.5 mm felt like it pentrated just a tad deeper. They're not very ezpensive so i would try n experiment. Good luck.

This may work If the diamonds are impregnated on the edges of the disk. They have what Is called a cutoff disk you can use them with the same Dremel tool. Those are meant for the problem you have.

Dermaneedling instructions booklet link: btw, it was recommended from a MakeupAlley.com review. Personally, seems to be overkill (too much info) with first viewing: http://dermaroller.owndoc.com/dermaroller-instructions.pdf

I'm not sure but please don't waste your money . I get a microdermabrasion every other week from a professional beauty school down in Boca Raton close to my home and I pay about 265.00 for 6 and they do an extraordinary job . Look into something like that in your area . Beauty Schools offer these services for their students to have hands-on experience and they are supervised by the instructor , check it out .

There is a light diamond pattern texture. You could probably paint but not draw on it without seeing the texture.

I don't know, but I would give it a try. You will probably need to buy a special diamond tip blade????

I was very disappointed when the unit ceased to function after a couple of uses. The second unit had the same issues so I'm not sure why. However, I don't believe it will shrink moles and skin tags, I would highly suggest you visit your dermatologist for a professional opinion.

i used the microdermabrasion years ago, and personally it exfoiilates alot more than this one. microdermabrasion has alot more friction you have to be more careful using it. if your skin is really sensitive then microderm is probably not the best option

The double ceramic had a weak spring - my hair would fall out and it was impossible to curl my hair. The nano tourmaline is great - just the tip is bad. If you have a craft store around, go buy clay or some other ceramic type material you can mold and that will dry into a hard form. I used sculptey to make a tip for myself and it fits really well onto the end (because of those fins in the iron tip) and doesn't fall off at all when I'm using it. Doesn't heat up either. Had this not worked, i'd have bought the double ceramic, used my craft knife to cut some of the plastic pins off the inside, and swapped tips with the nano.

A finger tip will work perfectly. However for spot treatment a Qtip is highly recommended. FYI please avoid direct sunlight when using product or apply at night before bed time, use a towel on pillow if applying at night. Thanks

No they are not diamond tips. There is a diamond set very simular by the same people but the shaft is a little thicker. for just a few bucks, get them both.

Yes there is a manual for it, really easy directions on setup and use of the machine as well. There is a customer service phone number if you have any questions, I called and the lady was great, very helpful even sent me some more information. It is the same person every time you call!! Which I love!! As far as videos microdermabrasion is pretty basic, you can you tube any "microdermabrasion how to" and figure it out.

Yes, you can use it on different parts of your body. It comes with 9 interchangeable diamond tips which range from face to body usage. For instance, the tip D80 is for the body whereas D100,D120 is for the face. You don't have to worry about which tip is for what because the box where the diamond tips are stored comes with a detailed diagram which explains what you should use each tip for.

The particles are not regular enough for them to apply a normal grit rating, but they are sorted by maximum size in microns, I think. At any rate, I think the rough equivalents are Coarse: 250, Fine: 600, X-Fine: 1200. There is an XX-Fine, but even that doesn't get you anywhere close to 8000. If you want a finish like an 8000+ waterstone with diamonds, you have to get the paste and spread it on a substrate of your own. I'm sure I've seen diamond paste as fine as .5 micron, and it may go finer than that; I don't think they can bond particles that fine to the DMT plates.
