Microdermabrasion
A Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical skin resurfacing procedure that can be used to improve a number of skin tribulations, such as the reduction of superficial to moderate wrinkles, light to moderate acne scars, rough skinned texture, stretch marks, discoloration, sun damaged effects or just the want of a bright complexion. If any of these conditions apply to you, keep reading.
Microdermabrasion Process
Microdermabrasion is quick and non-invasive procedure use to remove the external layer of the skin that has been exposed to environmental factors and now are just dead cells.
We use two common and very effective methods of microdermabrasion, Crystals and Diamond Tome. When the removal of this skin layer occurs, the growth of new cells begins, allowing the new cells to be properly nourished with ingredients that will work to improve the overall melanin, hydration and volume of the skin.
Eliminating damaged skin cells leaves the skin smooth, bright and full of life.
Crystals Microdermabrasion
Involves the use of a hand-held device that releases a high-speed flow of aluminum oxide crystals onto the skin. At the same time, the machine's vacuum system sucks away dirt, dead cells and used crystals. This method uses aluminum oxide crystals which causes no allergic reactions.
Diamond Tome Microdermabrasion
This is a crystal-free method, which uses a tipped wand made of thousands of natural tiny diamond particles, of all different coarseness and size to accommodate the patient. The suction of the machine in combination with the tipped wand is what exfoliates the damaged superficial layer. Both methods of Microdermabrasion are effective and specialized to your needs of improvement. Depending on the depth of the skin condition to be treated a Microdermabrasion may be combined with other skin resurfacing treatments such as, chemical peels and laser resurfacing.
Length of Microdermabrasion Treatments
Depending on the area to be treated, a microdermabrasion session can lasts up to 30 minutes. Depending on skin correction, it is suggested an average of eight to ten treatments to see desired results. Microdermabrasion treatments should be scheduled between one to three weeks apart.
Although this treatment is recommended in series, improvement of the skins texture and complexion is seen immediately. Sun protection after treatment will be applied. However, application of makeup and normal daily activities can be resumed. Everything but sun tanning!
