Microdermabrasion Treatments (Skin Polishing)

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to exfoliate and remove the outer layer of dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. It's a popular treatment for improving the skin's appearance, texture, and overall radiance. Microdermabrasion is gentle and suitable for a variety of skin types, making it a popular choice for those looking to refresh their complexion without downtime.

How Microdermabrasion Works

Microdermabrasion involves the use of a handheld device that exfoliates the skin by applying fine crystals or a diamond-tipped wand to the skin's surface. Here's a breakdown of how the procedure works

1. Exfoliation

The device gently removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells using fine crystals (aluminum oxide) or a diamond tip.

The exfoliating action helps unclog pores, reduces the appearance of superficial fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin texture.

2. Vacuum Suction

Along with exfoliation, the device uses a suction mechanism to stimulate blood flow and lymphatic drainage.

This helps improve circulation and enhances the skin's natural healing process.

3. Non-Invasive

Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical procedure that requires no anesthesia or downtime.

The treatment is painless, with most people experiencing a mild scratching or sanding sensation during the procedure.

4. Customizable

The procedure can be adjusted based on the individual's skin type, needs, and desired results.

Different tip sizes and strengths are used depending on the sensitivity of the skin and the specific concerns (e.g., fine lines, acne scars, pigmentation).

Benefits

Improved Skin Texture

Microdermabrasion helps smooth rough, uneven skin, making it appear more youthful and vibrant.
It can reduce the appearance of fine lines, superficial scars, and pigmentation.

Unclogs Pores

By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, microdermabrasion helps to unclog pores, reducing the chance of acne breakouts.
It also helps prevent blackheads and whiteheads.

Boosts Collagen Production

The gentle exfoliation and suction of microdermabrasion stimulate the production of collagen, a key protein that maintains skin elasticity.
This can lead to firmer, more youthful skin over time.
