Dr. Brandt Skincare Advanced Microdermabrasion Face Exfoliator — 2.1 oz resurfacing scrub with lactic acid & precision-milled crys

Dr. Brandt Advanced Microdermabrasion Face Exfoliator is a professional-inspired at-home resurfacing scrub that polishes away dull skin to reveal smoother texture and a more even tone.

This 2.1 oz formula recreates the look-and-feel of a microdermabrasion treatment using precision-milled aluminum crystals plus lactic acid and soothing botanicals. Designed for use 1–2 times weekly, it targets rough patches, visible texture and the appearance of fine lines while including calming ingredients to reduce post-exfoliation irritation. Not intended for sensitive, irritated, rosacea-prone or active acne skin.

How does this exfoliator improve skin texture without being harsh?

The product blends mechanical and chemical exfoliation for controlled resurfacing. Tiny aluminum crystals provide a physical polish while lactic acid gently dissolves dead surface cells and supports natural renewal, together producing a smoother finish without over-stripping oils when used as directed.

• Precision-milled aluminum crystals for even, measurable abrasion
• Lactic acid promotes gentle chemical exfoliation and renewal
• Jojoba and aloe help maintain moisture and comfort during use
• Use 1–2 times per week to avoid excessive irritation

What skin concerns will I likely notice improvement in?

Regular, correctly spaced use can reduce the visible roughness of skin, improve overall radiance, and make fine lines less noticeable by smoothing the skin surface. It also prepares skin to better absorb serums and moisturizers after treatment.

• Refines uneven texture and rough patches
• Minimizes the appearance of fine lines on the surface
• Brightens dull, lackluster skin for a fresher look
• Enhances product absorption post-exfoliation

How should I use it safely for best results?

Start with clean, damp skin and massage gently for about two minutes, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly, follow with a hydrating moisturizer, and allow at least three days between applications to support barrier recovery.

• Cleanse skin before application to remove makeup and oils
• Apply on damp skin; massage gently for ~2 minutes
• Rinse well and finish with moisturizer and sunscreen in daytime
• Limit to 1–2 times weekly and avoid if skin is irritated

Can I use this with other active skincare ingredients?

Yes, but with precautions: avoid layering this treatment with strong actives (high-strength retinoids, potent chemical peels) on the same day to reduce risk of over-exfoliation. Introduce combinations gradually and monitor skin response, spacing treatments to allow recovery.

• Avoid using concurrently with high-strength chemical peels or fresh laser treatments
• Be cautious when combining with prescription retinoids; space usage days apart
• Always follow up with moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF during the day
• Perform a patch test if combining with new active products

Who is this for: This Dr. Brandt formula suits people with normal to oily or combination skin seeking an at-home, medspa-style exfoliation to polish texture and brighten tone. It is not recommended for sensitive, rosacea-prone, heavily irritated, or actively acneic skin—those users should consult a dermatologist before trying strong physical exfoliants. Ideal users want visible smoothing results, improved product absorption, and are able to follow a conservative routine of 1–2 weekly applications with adequate hydration and sun protection.
