Home dermabrasion kits are a great way to resurface the top layer of your skin. It helps to reduce mild acne, scars, clogged or enlarged pores, age spots, fine lines and dull skin. Studies show that dermabrasion not only eliminates dead skin cells, but also encourages collagen and elastin production.

Dermabrasion products and home kits are also a good way to supplement a professional microdermabrasion session or to improve and get more dramatic results from facial peels and scrubs - like my famous baking soda/sugar scrub recipe that listed on my website. The best part of dermabrasion kits is they don't require any down time. You can rejuvenate your skin tonight and be ready to go out tomorrow.

However, one of the questions I get asked often is whether a home dermabrasion kit is as effective as a professional microdermabrasion session. Well, I've had professional microdermabrasion and it's great. My skin never looked better, but the results don't last long and it was much too expensive to keep it up. So, I've investigated several home dermabrasion kits to find one that worked just as well.

I can tell you right now, the inexpensive drug store brands did nothing special. The baking soda/sugar scrubs and glycolic/salicylic acid peels provided better, smoother skin. I didn't want to spend a lot of money but was desperate to find something that was close to a professional microdermabrasion.

You'd be surprised as to how effective the home dermabrasion kits have gotten over the last few years. Some of the system contains medical grade corundum crystals to exfoliate and deep clean and attachments so you can exfoliate different parts of your body like the Decollete area and even your feet.

Compare the Costs

Home dermabrasion kits can vary from $70.00 to $200.00 - at least the good ones do but when you compared the cost to a professional microdermabrasion, which costs about $100.00 to $200.00 per session - these home dermabrasion kits costs about $2.00 per session.

One company, DeramNew makes a dermabrasion kit that specializes in people with melanin problems - meaning they suffer from hyperpigmentation - uneven skin tone, blotches, and brown spots.

Recently, I've come across a home dermabrasion kit that uses the exact same machine my dermatologist uses and it even comes with the exact same medical grade crystals and vacuum technology that the professional machines use.

Great Technology

It's a real money saver to be able to get professional dermabrasion results in your own home for just few dollars per session. I've had microdermabrasion and was addicted to the feeling and the way my skin looked.

So, I set out to investigate and find the best of the best in home dermabrasion kits and share this with you on my site.
