What determines how many passes a microderm client can have?

The number of passes a microdermabrasion client can receive is primarily determined by skin thickness. Thicker skin can typically withstand more passes of the microdermabrasion device, which involves the removal of the top layer of dead skin cells to promote regeneration and improve texture. This allows for a more aggressive approach during the treatment, as thicker skin is less prone to irritation.

On the other hand, thinner or more sensitive skin may require fewer passes to prevent adverse reactions, such as redness or irritation. Therefore, assessing skin thickness is crucial in determining the appropriate intensity and frequency of microdermabrasion treatments for individual clients. This evaluation ensures that the treatment is both effective and safe, tailoring the experience according to each individual's skin condition.
