The MicrodermMD device has been getting a lot of press and attention lately, and we decided that a quick update on the device, microdermabrasion, and some of the new treatments would be timely right now. Here are some of the new things we are seeing on the market:

1. There are more and more “brush style” microdermabrasion treatments on the market than ever before. The Clarisonic started this craze, and still is the market leader, but there are many imitators and copycats out there now. We still believe this is a great tool for use in the shower, and it can be used anywhere on the body. However, this is more of scrub than a true microdermabrasion.

2. The “crystal-based” devices are really falling by the wayside, both for professional and home usage. These days, there are very few spas and salons offering this type of treatment, mainly because it is messy, can be painful, and there is still a possibility that the particles themselves could be harmful to your skin over the long term. In keeping with this trend, there are virtually no crystal-based devices on the home device market anymore either.

3. True at home microdermabrasion devices are still limited to a few high quality units on the market, and all at affordable prices. What you will notice when you look at online reviews, through Google, Amazon, or other review sites, is the HUGE disparity in quality of product and customer service. Currently, the MicrodermMD has a 4.8 out of 5 star rating on Amazon. This does not mean that our product is perfect, but it does mean that we take our product and our customer service seriously, and we stand behind our word.

The MicrodermMD continues to perform as a high quality home microdermabrasion machine that lasts for years. The suction power, combined with the natural diamond tip, produce a true microdermabrasion treatment that rivals any spa or salon treatment. Home diamond microdermabrasion is here to stay, and choosing the right device is really the key to getting treatments for years to come in the privacy of your home. Make sure you read lots of reviews and customer feedback before making your choice, and as always, feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

In mid-2010 we launched the first new product for the Trophy Skin line of home devices since the inception of the company. We searched far and wide to find a high quality home device that was effective and that solved a huge customer need, and we came up with the MicrodermMD. This device uses a diamond tipped wand, suction motor, and wool filters to function as the home equivalent of a diamond peel microdermabrasion treatment. Each month, tens of thousands of women visit their dermatologist, family doctor, spa, or salon to receive a 20-30 minute microdermabrasion treatment. These treatments help to brighten the skin, smooth out uneven tone and texture, and work to reduce fine lines, enlarged pores, and a host of other skin ailments.

However, these spa and salon microderm treatments also cost anywhere from $50 to $150 per treatment, making them unaffordable for weekly usage. We created the MicrodermMD to eliminate the need for these costly spa visits. The MicrodermMD functions just as well as a microdermabrasion treatment at a salon, but is so much more cost effective over the long term. The diamond tip is coarse enough to create the right amount of dermal peeling and abrasion, while the powerful suction motor pulls the dead skin cells into the wool filter.

The device costs $299 and comes with a 1 year warranty, and replacement wool filters can also be purchased through the Trophy Skin website. We firmly believe that the MicrodermMD is the best purchase that can be made for men or women that are used to paying for monthly microderm treatments, but want more of those treatments in a cost effective way. The home treatments are easy to do, take less than 10 minutes, and have the same anti-aging and skin smoothing effects as the salon devices.
