    Hi Lin:

    I think the order you perform the treatments is dependent upon what you are working on.  If I am working on keratinized skin, that means I want to work most effectively at the surface of the skin.  In that case, I want to do the enzyme/peel first to soften things up, then do my microderm second to work most efficiently at polishing the skin.

    If I am working on pigmentation deeper in the skin, then I want to work deeper in the skin.  In that case, I will perform the microderm first, then apply the peel to penetrate further in the skin to reach the melanocyte.

    Make sense?  Think about where you want to work most effectively and then YOU decide the order.

    Thank you Lisa- makes perfect sense - again I very thankful for this forum and appreciate your direction... I'd be lost without professional input, I feel a bit more confident- I used to the scared one afraid to ask questions, but you have made it very comfortable for me to ask without being afraid, I know that I will get a genuine answer, you've been a blessing, I thank you for sharing your knowledge as well !!
