I got my PMD last week and used it twice (with blue head). My main concern is hyperpigmentation. So far I did not see any lightening but wish I would after 2 or 3 months.

My daughter has acne scars and used the PMD for her first time on Sunday night and Monday morning I received her text: "Woah, I think the PMD helped. The scars seem less visible."

I have problem using it on my forehead - no suction. Maybe my forehead is too boney. Shock Shock Shock


I did not notice the hyper pigmentation going away until about 5th treatment, and the difference now is amazing to me. As for the forehead I have issues making it work there as well, I started switching out the smaller head for the larger one and that makes a huge difference for me!!! We must have a nice curve to our foreheads and mines bony too btw Laughing Laughing

I forgot to say what I love, love, did I mention love, about this is how much better my skin is with each treatment, but I digress, what I really love is it takes 3-5 minutes tops to do my face, neck, chest.

The coloring of my skin is getting fantastic, the sunspots going fast!!!

I may have missed this in the thread, but was wondering, do you use this in combination with a Clairsonic type device?
I am looking to purchase either a Clairsonic/Iskin/Nutraluxe Nutra Sonic or a PMD, and am confused if I would need both or if one is enough... How do you decide between the two?

Just so you know, you do NOT have to use both, I just do and love the results. Are the combined results, I really don't know 100% but I definately feel they are. But if you could only get one, I'd get the PMD.

Ok, thank you both... maybe I'll go with a cheaper Clairsonic alternative and the PMD Smile
DM, do you still love your ISkin, or have you switched to something else?..

Thank you!

The ISkin is different in that it is not rechargeable, you have to replace the sponge heads fairly often and buy the cream with the rounded metal beads to use along with it. I found it was great, but I defiantly prefer the Skinn sonic cleanser now that I have it! It really is way more convenient to use, and I can's swear the ISkin is sonic, I believe it just vibrates.

Given a choice I would go for the Skinn brand sonic cleanser every time!

HTH Very Happy

I just received mine and am making sure I received everything. Outside of the box they threw in a package of green and a package of blue discs. I am reading the instructions and will watch the video before I start. The book states that there is the white disc to use in a test run. Blue and green that came with the unit and the others but it states using a red disc which I don't have. Did anyone get red discs?


How are you liking this so far Frodo? It will take a bit of use, one to get use too and two to see results, but just curious how your doing with it?

Me too, fingers crossed, but at least anyone that does order from shopnbc and doesn't love it or even like it, they can send it back and get all their money back, so its a safe try!

I gave myself a bruise on the right side of my face and that was with the white tester. Shock
I am not a happy camper right now.

I am so sorry that happened, but I think its from it staying in one place too long, I did the same thing several times. If you let the suction stay too long, it will do that, mine healed super fast and left NO lasting damage or mark to skin at all. It must stay moving on the skin, the suction is really that powerful, which from what I understand, is why it works so amazingly, once the learning curve is over and for me that took a few times Confused .

I don't have acne, but I do have hyper-pigmentation, that is vanishing before my eyes. Just be careful, keep the machine moving!!
