Restore the Natural Glow and Texture of the Skin

What is Medical Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical, non-invasive procedure which combines a spray of fine aluminum hydroxide crystals with mild suction to exfoliate the dead outer layers of skin (the epidermis). The licensed aesthetician can control the power of the spray, from a gentle buffing of the skin to deeper exfoliation where needed. The gentle action exfoliates the epidermis and uncovers the skin's smooth under-layer to accelerate collagen production, resulting in healthier, firmer, rejuvenated skin. Microdermabrasion works equally well on all skin colors and it may be used in conjunction with a light chemical peel or IPL PhotoFacial treatment.

What conditions can be treated?

 * Sun damaged skin

 * Age spots

 * Hyperpigmentation (Brown Spots)

 * Fine lines & wrinkles

 * Enlarged or oily pores

 * Blackheads & whiteheads

 * Acne scars

 * Uneven skin tone

What can you expect?

Following the treatment, your skin may appear to be slightly pink. Discomfort is minimal. The skin may peel mildly. In the case of a deeper treatment level for more blemished or thicker skins, the skin will appear slightly red and tight for a few hours. The treatment takes approximately 30 minutes, after which you can return immediately to your daily activities. Optimal results can be seen after five to eight sessions, depending upon skin type and skin condition.

The best candidates for Microdermabrasion are women and men who want to:

 * Improve their general appearance

 * Maintain healthy skin

 * Reverse sun damage

 * Stimulate the natural production of collagen
