Silk'n ReVit for microdermabrasion treatments at home: non-abrasive diamond exfoliation with vacuum stimulation technology

Microdermabrasion is a revolutionary skincare treatment that’s all the hype at spas for its aid in reducing the appearance of acne scars, fine lines and sun damage. It’s also a non-invasive, non-chemical treatment that allows your skin’s natural beauty to shine!

Silk’n – a brand well known for creating convenient at-home personal care devices – offers a hand-held device, called “ReVit”, for at-home microdermabrasion treatments. Since these sorts of skincare treatments can be quite pricey at spas, I was super excited to try this device to see how effective it really is, and how honest the public’s reviews are (just as a note, the Silk’n ReVit is consistently highly rated in reviews!). I was a regular user of a Silk’n epilator years ago, so I’ve been curious as to the effectiveness of the brand’s other innovations!

So what is microdermabrasion? It’s basically a super exfoliation of the skin, using micro-crystals or diamond tips. At most spas, estheticians will use a spray of micro-crystals to remove the outer layer of dry or dead skin cells from the face to reveal newer, healthier-looking skin beneath. Removing the layer of dead skin cells, along with using a suction along the skin, brings new skin to the surface while encouraging blood flow to the edge of the epidermis. This helps to build collagen over time, thus reducing fine lines and healing discoloration.

Silk’n ReVit is an at-home system so you can give your skin the pampering it deserves without spending the big bucks. The ReVit device only costs $100, whereas most one-time visits to a spa cost more than that! And judging by the positive reviews, it seems like a great product to try.

So, what are my thoughts after only one use? First off, having never had a microdermabrasion treatment, I’m quite impressed with how fresh and glowing the skin appears after only one use. And using the suction diamond tip really feels like a nice facial massage – a massage that gives you a good exfoliation to boot! I’ll be interested to see how my skin’s texture appears after a couple weeks of use, after which I may post a follow-up article. I’m especially curious to see if a couple of discolored areas can be improved and if any occasional breakouts can be diminished with regular ReVit use!
