The 4 Best Professional Microdermabrasion Machines
KENDAL PRO DIAMOND MICRODERMABRASION MACHINE
The Kendal Pro Diamond Microdermabrasion Machine HB-SF01 uses sterile diamond heads that safely peel the dead cells on the surface of your skin without causing any damage to it.
It works on a micro level, so except for the feeling of softness as an after effect you won’t feel anything else – no pain, no dangerous peeling, no irritation or redness, no nothing.
By vacuuming and suction, the Kendal Diamond Microdermabrasion Machine removes skin debris, scars, blemishes, dirt, dead cells, and uneven pigmentation.
This machine comes with two dermabrasion stainless steel handles and 9 different-sized fine, medium, and coarse diamond tips.
Other parts included in its pack are 360 cotton filters (6 bags x 60 filters per bag) (240 small and 120 large ones), an air hose for diamond filter and two cylinder-like plastic oil filters.
Pros:
- Provides non-surgical procedure – no side-effects.
- This unit is crystal-free, reducing the risk of ingestion and getting into the eyes. This makes a great benefit against machines with the micro-crystal flow.
- Strong suction power – removes all the dirt particles and the dead skin cells from your skin without causing injury to it.
- The microdermabrasion machine can be used closer to the eyes and mouth as there is no risk of ingestion, inhalation or the particles getting into the eyes.
- Very easy to maintain and clean. Kendal comes with 360 cotton filters, each one for single use.
- The Diamond tips can be cleaned easily with a soft toothbrush and some hot water.
- One year warranty and life time parts support.
- Middle-range priced
Cons:
- Its Diamond tips are very small and can be lost easily. They are so small that they can even be flushed down a sink. So be careful when cleaning.
- It measures 16.9 by 12.2 by 16.3 Inches and weighs 9 Pounds. Nothing too big for home use but you aren’t able to transport it so easily.
EMARK BEAUTY 9 IN 1 T3 MULTIFUNCTION FACIAL MACHINE
This multifunction facial machine acts as an ozone aromatherapy as well as a high-frequency steamer and as an effective microdermabrasion machine.
The high-frequency steamer comes with a plastic jar, a magnifying lamp, and a complete microdermabrasion set with a vacuum extractor with spray.
Works using a galvanic method and it has a woods lamp included for an in-home examination that uses transilluminating light to detect bacterial or fungal skin infections. It also can detect skin pigment disorders such as vitiligo and other skin irregularities.
A facial brush is included, as well as a 3 tier mobile stand with stainless steel utility bowl.
This is more of a high-end microdermabrasion set that most salons would choose, but if you have the funds and the space, it is one of the most effective and professional ones out there.
Pros:
- Many devices included for a complete facial cleaning experience.
- Woods lamp to detect even the smallest skin problems.

ECLERIS MINIVAC DIAMOND-TIP MICRODERMABRASION MACHINE
This diamond-tip microdermabrasion machine is crystal-free which makes it very safe to use without the danger of inhaling or ingesting any harmful substances.
It is by far the most advanced microdermabrasion machine that is developed to provide faster skin recovery as it doesn’t penetrate the skin as much as the rest of the machines do.
This machine is recommended for people with dry skin (but also suitable for every skin type) because it is better tolerated by the dry skin when compared to the standard microdermabrasion machines, giving optimum benefits to patients.
It exfoliates the skin on a micro dermal level but it doesn't come in contact directly, so it doesn't leave any redness or irritation whatsoever.
After the exfoliation, due to its high-suction power, all the remaining dead cells and the dirt of the skin are successfully removed, and by doing so, the machine is able to even the skin tone.
Pros:
- Superior exfoliation results.
- Highly professional.
- High suction power.
- Fast recovery – doesn’t do as much damage on a cellular level.
- There is no electrical contact with the patient, no chemical burn hazard, muscular fasciculation, pain or swelling.
- It does not have a galvanic effect or cause muscular stimulation.
- There is no molecular ionization of transferred substances.
- Not contraindicated with prosthesis.
- Non-invasive.
- It introduces ionic, nonionic, lipophilic and hydrophilic substances.
- It does not need a conductive gel.
- Small in size and weight – easy to transport it,
Cons:
- Need certain experience to use it safely.
- Expensive.

Hi Monika,
You know, I’ve seen a video on Instagram last night about microdermabrasion machines.
It seems to be an excellent tool. How many times per week can we use it?
I saw in the last photo that we can apply it by ourselves, which is good if we want to keep it at home.
Are there any recommendations? I mean, is this tool right for all ages? How can one make the right choice when buying one?
Hi Marta, thanks for stopping in 🙂
Microdermabrasion can be done as often as weekly or up to every 8 weeks depending on your skin’s tolerance and desired cosmetic effects. A lot of people will start with weekly treatments for 3 sessions, then
change to a monthly maintenance regimen.
The machines that we have recommended in this post are for people looking to get into offering microdermabrasion to clients so they aren’t typically for home use. If you are looking for a personal microdermabrasion machine, I would recommend the Microderm GLO by Nuvederm or the KellyWest MicroDerm 360 if you are on a serious budget.
Hi Monika,
I truly appreciate your reviews of at-home personal microdermabrasion systems. I’m reluctant to buy because I’ve tried dermabrasion in the past -mainly for acne scars- both at home and in a spa beauty salon. At home, I would use the banish acne kit. I used it for three months and no success. I thought I was the problem, so I went to this salon for a couple of sessions. But then again, did see any improvement on my face, and it was quite expensive.
It’s the first time I read about at home dermabrasion kits like those, but how can I know this will not be another miss for me?
Thanks for your reply,
Didi
What a great question!
There is not much difference in a home and spa Microdermabrasion treatment. Spa services are expensive, although very effective. However you can have effective home treatments too. It takes time, and not all of us can do what needs to be done at the spa. When we do home treatments we can take full advantage of how many treatments are done and when we have a treatment. I personally believe you will have more success at home doing twice weekly treatments. Home Microdermabration machines are wonderful. They are simple to use and effective.
You must also know that acne scars are not something you can treat quickly. It will take time. Be patient and keep up treatments.
All the best,
Maria.
Hi Monika,
My daughter is going to learn skin care in a beauty school in September. So I am already thinking of buying her a tool like the professional microdermabrasion. It looks really useful! The one that attracts me is the Ecleris Minivac. Do you think she would be able to take it with her at the beauty school? Is it heavy?
Thank you in advance.
Hi Daniella, the Ecleris Minivac weighs 10 lbs so it shouldn’t be too difficult for your daughter to carry with her.
