Introduction to PMD Personal Microderm Replacement Discs
The PMD Personal Microderm Replacement Discs are essential components for your PMD Personal Microderm device. These discs, embedded with aluminum oxide crystals, work in conjunction with the device's patented spinning disc technology and vacuum suction to provide effective microdermabrasion treatments. Regular replacement of these discs ensures optimal performance and consistent results for smoother, brighter skin. This Advanced Kit includes a variety of disc coarseness levels to customize your treatment experience.
Understanding Your PMD Replacement Discs
PMD Personal Microderm replacement discs are designed with varying levels of coarseness to suit different skin types and treatment areas. The discs are embedded with aluminum oxide crystals, which are non-airborne and hypoallergenic, minimizing the risk of adverse reactions.

Replacing the Discs and Filter
For optimal results and hygiene, it is recommended to replace your PMD Personal Microderm discs every 3-4 treatments. The filter should also be replaced regularly to maintain device efficiency.
- Remove Old Disc: Gently twist and pull the cap off your PMD device. Carefully remove the used disc from its holder.
- Replace Filter: Locate the filter inside the device. Remove the old filter and insert a new one.
- Insert New Disc: Select the desired replacement disc (Teal, Orange, or Red from this kit) and firmly place it into the disc holder. Ensure it is securely seated.
- Reattach Cap: Place the cap back onto the device, twisting until it clicks into place.

Using Your PMD Personal Microderm with New Discs
Once the new disc is installed, you can proceed with your microdermabrasion treatment. Always start with the lowest intensity disc (e.g., Teal) and gradually increase as your skin adapts.
- Preparation: Ensure your skin is clean and dry.
- Technique: Hold the skin taut with one hand. With the other hand, glide the PMD device across your skin in an upward motion. Avoid going over the same area more than once per treatment.
- Frequency: Use the device once a week.
- Post-Treatment: Apply a toner and moisturizer after treatment to soothe and hydrate the skin.

Maintenance
- Disc Replacement: Replace discs every 3-4 treatments to ensure effective exfoliation.

- Cleaning: After each use, remove the disc and clean the cap and disc holder with rubbing alcohol. Ensure all parts are dry before reassembling.
Troubleshooting
- Reduced Suction/Effectiveness: If the device feels less effective, check if the disc is worn out or if the filter needs replacement. Ensure the cap is securely attached.
- Skin Irritation: If experiencing excessive redness or irritation, ensure you are using the correct disc coarseness for your skin type and not applying too much pressure or going over areas multiple times. Consider switching to a more sensitive disc.
- Compatibility: These replacement discs are designed for use with PMD Personal Microderm Classic, Plus, Pro, Man, and Elite devices. They may not be compatible with older or different models, which could affect performance.
