Men, women and teenagers all share a common desire to have healthy, youthful skin. Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, exfoliating treatment helpful for those unhappy with acne scarring, sun damaged skin, age spots, freckles, stretch marks, fine lines, scars and rough skin. Treatment can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, back, elbows and feet. Microdermabrasion is a safe, therapeutic approach to skin care when used alone or in combination with other treatments
What is treatment like?
Microdermabrasion is performed with a stream of fine crystals which are delivered across the skin's surface and then removed via vacuum, uprooting the damaged cells to reveal fresh, invigorated skin.
First, the area to be treated is properly cleansed with the appropriate product for your specific skin type. After the Microdermabrasion treatment, a moisturiser or sun block may be applied. In most cases, treatment is very comfortable and relaxing.
What are the benefits?
Microdermabrasion improves:
- Skin Texture
- Uneven skin colour
- Dull or dry patches
- Acne and acne scarring
- Rough, thick or dry skin
- Clogged pores and blackheads
- Large pores, fine lines, sun spots and age spots
What results can I expect?
Poor health, diet, aging, stress and elements of nature can hinder the skin's cell renewal process. Microdermabrasion accelerates the cellular turnover process, bringing you closer to healthier, younger looking skin. It allows for the gradual resurfacing of skin without the risks, side effects and downtime of more aggressive alternatives.
In as little as 20 minutes, this gentle, abrasive technique efficiently produces satisfying results. Improvements in appearance and texture occur with successive treatments. Microdermabrasion can be used aggressively to achieve dramatic results, but does not take the place of surgical or laser treatments
How many treatments will I need?
To achieve maximum results, several treatments are recommended, typically scheduled one to three weeks apart. You will experience a progressive improvement throughout your treatment program. Ask to schedule a consultation to determine the appropriate number of treatments suited for your optimum effects and goals.
How will my skin look immediately after treatment?
Microdermabrasion leaves your skin feeling soft. You will notice a healthier glow to your complexion. Due to the increase of circulation, a mild, temporary blush surrounding the treated area may be the only evidence of your therapy.
