Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion skin rejuvenation is used to minimize fine lines, wrinkles,  treat light scarring, discoloration, sun damage, stretch marks and help to clear up active acne. Are you looking for a non-surgical way to freshen and rejuvenate the skin on your face? Microdermabrasion treatments, a less aggressive approach than dermabrasion, make use of a minimally abrasive instrument to gently sand the skin, removing the thicker, uneven outer layer. This type of skin rejuvenation is used to treat light scarring, discoloration and sun damage and there’s even microdermabrasion for stretch marks.

Here’s how microdermabrasion it works:

Imagine a very fine sand blaster and you’ll get a picture of how microdermabrasion works. It uses micro-particles, or a diamond-tipped wand, to slough off the top layer (epidermis) of your skin and stimulate new skin growth. This technique also helps to thicken your collagen, which results in a younger looking complexion.  Collagen is a protein in your skin that’s abundant when you’re a child and makes skin appear taut and smooth. Collagen production declines as we age, resulting in looser, uneven skin.
There is almost no discomfort in microdermabrasion, meaning you won’t need a topical or local anesthetic and there is no recovery or downtime. Each treatment will last about a one and a half hours. You may feel a mild scratching as the procedure removes the superficial skin cells. Additionally, you’ll notice a vibrating sensation akin to a massage. There is also a suction mechanism to lift off the dead skin.


Special considerations, risks and recovery

Any discomfort experienced as part of microdermabrasion is usually short-lived. This can include redness and swelling, which should subside within a few hours. Later, you can expect the skin to be flaky and dry for several days. Additional risks include the following:

1. Bruising which can occur from the suction, which may last several days.

2. Your skin will be more sensitive to sun exposure. Be sure to use sunscreen, especially immediately following a microdermabrasion session.


In the long term

Your polished new look should be long-lasting, depending on the severity of your skin damage and the number of treatments that you receive. Many people have two microdermabrasion treatments per month at first and then one per month as part of a maintenance plan.

Clinical studies have clearly revealed that Microdermabrasion can:
  1. Eliminate age spots and black heads.

  4. Lessen the appearance of stretch marks.
  5. Reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
  6. Reduce or eliminate enlarged pores.
  7. Treat acne and the scars left by acne.
  8. A significant increase  if the skin’s ability to retain antioxidants.
  9. A thickening of the epidermal tissue increasing from 50 microns to 8 microns within a six-week series of regular treatments.
  10. An increase of depth in the papillary layer of the dermal tissue sifting from 300 microns to 425 microns within a six week series of regular treatments.
  11. An increase in fibroplast production.
