Has anyone had good success on the dry skin on the heels of their feet? I've tried Cure, pedi egg and others but don't seem to be making much progress. Sad

I dont think exfoliation alone would solve that issue...I am sure you are using some lotions there but have you tried rosehip seed oil? It is very emollient good for dry skin.

Also, I think pedi egg is way too stronger than PMD...

What helps make it work on my heels is my treatment.
After I shower I use Shea Butter or another butter (good creams work well too) then I do the cotton socks while sleeping and the skin really softens, I then blast them with the PMD and it has worked great to get the calloused skin off!

I am always running around barefooted so mine get rough! Very Happy

Thanks DM & Daler, I have some rosehip oil maybe I will try that. I have cold feet so I always wear socks to bed and lately I have been using creams or Egyptian Magic. They are better but I want them to be buttery soft.

You could even layer the oil on damp skin then add the EM and socks, I am sure with time they will be soft as a baby's bum! Very Happy

I have VERY thick soles regardless of footwear or physical activity. No amount of manual filing or ordinary foot cream plus wearing socks to bed is sufficient.

What works for me is a corn plane (imagine PMD would also work)

Followed by regular application of a strong blend of humectant/ keratolytic and the lipids found in a healthy skin barrier. Either lactic acid or urea for the humectant/ keratolytic part, lanolin or shea butter for the emollient. This is my favourite, it contains lanolin plus 25% urea. Hopefully you can source something similar in the US.

so far 2 treatments, and skin feels smooth to touch and pores visibly minimized! no affect on the dark spots yet but I have high hopes! It has only been 8 days! Wink

Hang in there, I did not notice any lightening of areas until 5th-6th treatment! The I could see areas fading fast! The first few treatments are nice, but nothing huge

This does work and work well along with your PMD! I do use the green tip for body instead of the blue for the face when doing my feel!

I used to use the "SOCK" trick for ages before buying the PMD and it really helped but the PMD knocks it way up! Very Happy

I just use a big fingernail file, then soak in about 3 layers of lotion and wala, done! I will have to try the PMD, but the files so easy and fast, but I do not have huge build-up to remove

I have ordered PMD. I read everything I could find out about it and decided that it was in my best interest to use this along with the Reluma.

I can not afford to eat for a month but I am looking forward to a new slim, younger looking me.

Thanks Tiny,Firefox &Rileygirl, I will check in to these different things for my feet.

Received my PMD last week and used it immediately! Found it very intuitive to use and easy to keep it moving. I tried it on my hands arms chest and then face. I used the blue on face and green everywhere else. Only some slight pinkness, even though I went over some areas on my face many times. I have very resiliant skin that could prob deal with the green head, but I will go slowly Razz

.

Love it so far and will report back as I progress.

The interesting thing was that when I used it on some sunspots on the back of my legs I got a huge amount of white skin "dust" collected on the black filter pad. I didn't have any noticeable dust from anywhere else....I guess my legs need more work.

Thanks for putting me onto this wonderful device!

You are welcome Crissie,

Tiny gets all the credit really, I nixed the NuBrilliance after having read so many bad reviews.
Tiny mentioned the PMD, she has used both and tossed the NB and stuck with the PMD! That sold me and I could not be happier! Smile

My many thanks to both , Tiny and DarkMoon! My face feels so smooth and I have done TCA peels in the past ( shed skin like crazy) and never felt like this!

I am just so happy you are as thrilled with it as we are!

It is amazing isn't it, I have done some heavy glycolic peels (never actually peel) but this puts all to shame for me!

free skin care · Sat Jun 02, 2012 9:56 am

yes DM, I am thrilled! in fact i did glycolic peels too but never felt if they did anything for me other than the stinging!

Yes, I use it myself and am loving it so far.

I purchased my first PMD in January but didn't start using it until early March. In addition, I have not used it weekly like many people do although I plan to start doing so very soon. The reason for not using it weekly is because I kind of went overboard during my first use and ended up "burning" certain areas of my face. Nothing major, mind you, but enough to tell me to slow down and take it easier next time round.

I too have noticed that my skin is now taking on a more smooth appearance (I believe I've used it three times now in total) so I'm excited to get to my next treatment. I can't say for sure but, of one of the spots on my face that "burned" during my first use, this just happens to now be one of smoothest areas on my whole face. However, I still would NOT recommend anyone do as I did and try rushing the procedure; better to take your time and do it as instructed.

One other thing that has drastically improved are some marks I have on my arms and chest. These were actually caused by one of my cats who decided to use me as a "tree for climbing up" one day, lol, and because her claws were out, well, you get the idea...ouch!

I used my PMD over all of the marks and one of the first things that changed was the "height" of them; they went from being kind of bumpy/scabby/feel-able (when running a hand over them) to completely flat. When I run a hand over them now I cannot feel them at all. Granted, they are still there but now they appear to actually be healing (getting lighter in color in addition to being flat) which is something they had never done before. These marks are marks I have had for about four years already so for them to finally be improving in shape/appearance now alone proves to me that the PMD system does work.

So far, so good, I am very happy with what I have been experiencing with my PMD so far and as long as I continue to experience such good results I will continue to use it for a long time to come.

Krazy are you still using yours? I do hope we haven't scared you off, I'd love to hear an update Very Happy
