4) Increased skin sensitivity

Like any thorough exfoliation treatment, microdermabrasion can leave your skin more sun-sensitive (this is called photosensitivity). As a result, the skin will be more sensitive to sun damage and sunburn in the days after your treatment. 1 This is hardly the time for a beach vacation! Every day, make sure to use sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. Regardless of whether you use microdermabrasion or not, this is a good skin habit to have.
