Microdermabrasion
What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a procedure that uses fine crystals and a controlled vacuum to exfoliate the skin. After the treatment, the skin has improved texture and softness, as well as fewer imperfections such as wrinkles and acne scars.
How does the treatment work?
The skin is washed to remove excess oil and dirt. Then, a medical professional targets a stream of aluminum oxide crystals over the area. The crystals abrade away old, dead skin cells, which the vacuum then picks up with gentle suction. This promotes the growth of collagen and new, rejuvenated skin. Moisturizers and sun block are then applied to the treated area.
How many treatments are required?
With only one treatment your skin will look and feel more beautiful. You will want to discuss with our licensed esthetician how often you should repeat this procedure to keep your skin looking its best.
