As someone who is immersed in the world of beauty treatments, I understand how overwhelming it can be to choose between different skincare procedures.
Today, we're examining two popular skin treatments - BB Glow and microdermabrasion.
To make an informed decision, it's essential to understand what each treatment involves.
BB Glow Treatment is a semi-permanent makeup technique that originated from South Korea. This treatment uses microneedling technology to infuse a skin-coloured pigment into your skin, reducing the appearance of blemishes, evening out skin tone, and giving a radiant, natural glow.
Microdermabrasion, on the other hand, is a minimally invasive procedure used to renew overall skin tone and texture. It can improve the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, acne scarring, and other skin-related concerns and conditions.

BB Glow uses microneedling to infuse a pigment-serum into the skin, giving it a smooth and radiant appearance.
Microdermabrasion employs an applicator with an abrasive surface to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it.
BB Glow primarily aims to give the skin a consistent, semi-permanent makeup look without daily application, while microdermabrasion is focused on exfoliation and rejuvenating the skin, improving the appearance of skin concerns like age spots and acne scars.
The results of BB Glow can last up to 6 months, depending on skin type and lifestyle.
Microdermabrasion requires more frequent sessions as the effects typically last one month.
Both treatments have minimal downtime. However, BB Glow may cause mild redness or sensitivity for a day or two post-treatment, while microdermabrasion can lead to temporary dryness or flaking of the skin.
Your choice between BB Glow and microdermabrasion should be based on your skin type, concerns, and beauty goals.
- You want a semi-permanent solution to achieving a consistent, makeup-like glow.
- You wish to reduce the appearance of blemishes and achieve an even skin tone.
- You're looking for a treatment with long-lasting results.
- You're looking to deeply exfoliate and rejuvenate your skin.
- You want to improve the appearance of skin concerns like age spots, fine lines, and mild acne scars.
- You're okay with a treatment that requires more frequent sessions for maintained results.
A skincare professional will help you understand your skin type and guide you towards the treatment that will best meet your goals.
In the world of beauty treatments, one size does not fit all. Whether you choose BB Glow or microdermabrasion, the most important thing is that you're making an informed decision that aligns with your skin health and aesthetic aspirations.
