Reduces Acne scars...when used for 4 weeks/once week., March 1, 2009
This review is from: Crystalift Microdermabrasion Machine (Health and Beauty)
This machine was an obvious investment at the price, but I've always loved getting dermabrasion because it reduced my acne scaring. This machine helps to reduce and even eliminate the acne scaring. You are supposed to use one capsel (sp?) a week, but since I don't use one up every week (you'll probably use half) I just use the rest up the next week. You only use it once a week or it is too drying which you can tell from the flakiness that happens in 4 days (but not so much as the peel). It also closes my pores. My skin is like a babies bottom. It's awesome and totally worth it. I haven't bought replacement capsels yet because i've only used it for 3 weeks...but I think I will wait another month before firing it up again. You shouldn't microderm too often. I don't get paid by the company for this review. I just wanted to share this with others.

wasn't all that, October 5, 2009
This review is from: Crystalift Microdermabrasion Machine (Health and Beauty)
Supplies are costly, suction creates red blood vessel mini bruises that photorejuvination heals at a cost of $250.00 If you, like me, already bought it, you can refill empty capsules with powder you buy at about $12.oo/oz which is 4 or more full applications. Simply rip off the rubber tip of their capsule,without ruining the cut on the top, fill it with "cheap" powder , and then reattach rubber cap with a thin strip of scotch tape. It seems to work! When the collection container fills up, simply shake it out. Perhaps, you can find a more efficient way,but I didn't. I ended up cutting my monthly cost from 39.99 to less than $10.00.

Good investment, May 14, 2009
This review is from: Crystalift Microdermabrasion Machine (Health and Beauty)
I actually stumbled upon this product while in LA - at a dermatologist office. I tried it in person first and was impressed at how strong the suction was for a consumer product. They offered to let me come back as often as I wanted for the next 30 days to continue to use it on their dime. Since I was not local I decided to give it a 30 day in home trial. I used it at home with ease. Like another reviewer said, one generous use only used half of a capsule. The next week my sister was visiting and she tried it with me and loved it. So much so, that she bought one. The following week my sister from NY was visiting. She tried it and liked it too and is now contemplating a purchase.
I used to get monthly microdermabrasion but the cost really adds up, so I do it infrequently now. I was skeptical that this machine and the crystals could really be as effective as the real deal. But having used it for 2 months now, I am sold. My skin is softer, fresher and clearer. At age 45 my skin is in pretty good condition but was beginning to look a bit blotchy. Since using this my skin looks much improved - I have gotten several compliments on how good my skin looks. I am very happy to have an affordable way to "treat" myself to taking even better care of my skin. Living for years in So Cal, I have been very conscious of good skin care. But this allows me to take it up a notch at a very affordable price.
If you appreciate the results of a professional microdermabrasion session, you will be impressed with the Crystalift machine. I would definitely recommend it. (And I do not work for anyone affiliated with the product, I just wish I had some reviews to read before I bought it!)
