I am getting married in August. I have very big open pores. And as my skin is oily, I have some acne also. Will microdermabrasion treatment help clear all these and make the skin surface smooth?

Hello, lets first find out its underlying cause of acne and treat it. Microdermabrasion can not be done when there are active acne. Treatments like Peels, photofacial, carbon facial, Hydrapeel will help in acne & pigments. After acne settles we can target scars & open pores with treatment like PRP, Microneedling and Fractional CO2 laser. In depth consultation and examination is required.
