MICRODERMABRASION

This is our most innovative treatment available, and will not only improve skin texture and tone, reduce or improve age spots, correct fine lines, hyper-pigmentation and acne scars, but will also stimulate natural collagen in the skin leaving you with a younger and more radiant glow.

Microdermabrasion is mechanical exfoliation that removes the uppermost layer of dead skin cells from the face, chest and hands. For best results, it is recommended you get a series of treatments to use in conjunction with anti-aging skin care products.  The procedure takes about 20-30 minutes and there’s no down-time for the skin to recover, deeming it a “lunchtime peel.”

BENEFITS OF MICRODERMABRASION

Microdermabrasion leaves skin with a fresher, more glowing look and diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, and coarse textured skin. Microdermabrasion also makes it easy for high-tech skin care products to actually penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and help build collagen, the source of skin’s youthful appearance.

Microdermabrasion originally was developed as an anti-aging treatment but the procedure became popular among acne sufferers, too.  The treatment deeply exfoliates, softens and revitalizes the skin and can help reduce non-inflamed blemishes and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

HOW MICRODERMABRASION WORKS

Microdermabrasion uses a powerful device to spray microcrystals of aluminum dioxide (corundum powder) across the skin’s surface. The aluminum dioxide is a very fine, very hard, sand-like material that blasts away the uppermost layer of dead skin cells on the skin’s epidermis.

The main benefits of microdermabrasion are that it’s quick and inexpensive compared to other skin rejuvenation procedures. With this procedure there is no down-time, so you can have a treatment done during your lunch hour and head back to work directly afterwards!
