Microdermabrasion is much more than your regular exfoliation, it cleanses and buffs your skin to a much deeper level than any exfoliation can achieve.
This simple no-fuss treatment can work wonders for all skin types and will keep skin looking at its silky-soft best.
Microdermabrasion is one of the most popular and effective non-invasive skin treatments and its smooth skin results appear immediately. It can also be used on different parts of the body such as the hands and décolletage, however is most commonly used on the face.
The treatment involves very deep exfoliation and polishing of the skin using a medical grade microdermabrasion machine. A small pen-like instrument will glide over your skin to simultaneously buff, polish, and slough the old skin cells away using a diamond tip. As well as polishing, the instrument also applies a gentle vacuum to remove the dead skin cells from the top layer of skin and this in turn draws blood to the surface.
The process only takes about 30 minutes and in this time it cleanses and stimulates the skin. The treatment is effective for encouraging new skin cells to grow and treating many skin conditions. Some of these include wrinkles, pigmentation, scaring, acne, open pores, and dull skin. You will walk away feeling fresher, your pores de-congested, blockages drawn out and skin much smoother.
The effect of microdermabrasion on the skin comes from both below and above the surface. The vacuum effect of microdermabrasion helps to increase the oxygen levels in the blood vessels under your skin, enabling your skin to regenerate more effectively and produce collagen naturally. The polishing effect will help your skin to absorb vitamins and skin care products more readily. Microdermabrasion helps to draw out impurities and imperfections to reveal the clear fresh skin underneath.
Right after the treatment your skin will feel very soft and may be a little red. Some patients experience more redness than others and some none at all. The skin can also sometimes be a little dry a few days after treatment, which is expected and the skin will be sensitive and needs to be protected with sun-cream up to 5 days after the treatment. .
