I used it personally, you always take a risk with any material or products you use.

I wouldn't, if you have a face brush use there or even a sonic brush. You will get amazing results with a sonic brush and the crystals. I do not recommend a microderm machine and crystals besides it would just vacuum the crystals

It is not cheap in quality....great product with great results. I have very sensitive skin and cannot wear many products, I have no problems at all with this kit. Extremely happy with this product!

Contains SLS (Sodium Lauryl or Laureth Sulfate). A known cancer carcinogen, is bad for skin, eyes, hair, gums and hair follicles. I would not use this on myself or especially anyone's baby bottles!!! Seventh Generation in this case is making BAD STUFF with a good name!

I'm sure it depends on the type of skin one has. I am 77 now and have simply used Olay hydrating beauty fluid lotion under my make up and overnight since I was 18. My skin was slightly dry and using the lotion felt very good. I think the Olay Regenerist is for women much older than 18. In fact, since I finished the small jar of Regenerist, I am back to using the Olay active hydrating beauty fluid lotion, and it feels just fine.

I too was hesitant but after having this for about a year I really do think it was worth it. My skin looks better. I used to get microdermabrasion but now I can just do them myself and home. It is really a good little machine. Love it.

I've used this machine several times and I've had absolutely no problems with it whatsoever. It does not cause any redness or scarring at all. I use it about once a week, but I still go for a professional microdermabrasion at my salon every 6 weeks or so. It's a good in between unit, in my opinion, and was worth the money.

I don't have the answer for you, but I can tell it works great. I'm using it for awhile. Don't have any side effects. Skin looks better after one time of use. I can tell it's hydrating very good. You will feel that skin like baby's touch. I will recommend it.

I've been using Olay products for 30 years; I will be 60 this year. The Regenerist line of products are my favorite, mostly because I only need this one cream. I use it as my day and night time moisturizer. I don't wear foundation, so the Regenerist is the only thing that touches my skin - I highly endorse this product for any skin type; my own is extremely sensitive, which is why I have been faithful to Olay products for so many years. I don't find the need to use any additional Olay products when I use this Regenerist product.

Well, I am no expert, but I use the total repair creme from Image and also use the strawberry rhubarb dermafoliant with lactic acid. They are expensive, but they last a long time. I also use Sonya Dakar products and love the acai clarifying wash. I mix it up a bit.

I use Olay Regenerist Microsculpting Cream, because it has won numerous awards and has been judged to be more effective that creams costing 20 times more. It is rich and counteracts some of the drying effects of a retinol cream.

I ordered the Original. I was using it night and day. The instructions state: Gentle enough for everyday use. My current morning favorite is Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Serum which can be used day and night. I like to use the Serum in the morning and the moisturizer at night. The moisturizer helps with winter dryness. The serum makes my skin feel silky. You can check out the Olay website for ingredient differences.

It is best to avoid lotions, peels, etc. while pregnant/nursing. Basically anything that you would leave on the skin. Acne cleaners with less than 2% salicylic acid are ok though. I use the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser. The AHA in it is safe too. I'll switch back to Burt's after nursing.

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

I have to agree with Susie C. I have only used the Rejuvacote nail growth system not any of their other products.

I used this while breastfeeding, sometimes even before feeding the baby, and he's doing great. At some point the doctor told me I could use coconut oil. I'm not breastfeeding anymore, but now I put an empty glass jar in a bowl of boiled water, and I melt lanolin in half of the jar and then put in an equal amount of coconut oil. It's wonderful. I use it on the baby and on myself. I told my husband we won't be buying body lotion in this household anymore. This is the best.

I would get one to err on the side of caution. My lactation consultants were very helpful and offered me one of these. I don't know if you have an LC or how breastfeeding friendly your providers will be or how willing they'll be to work with you. Not knowing your situation, I'd say to get a shield just in case. It has been a lifesaver for me.
