Medical Microdermabrasion is an excellent
treatment and will makes skin look younger softer and
more radiant. It does this by cleaning the pores and
stimulating new collagen growth. The effects are immediate.
Crystals are directed at the skin and usually removed
by a vacuum process. It is quite similar to sand blasting.
The treatment is gradual and progressive with each session.
It is often combined with collagen stimulating products
and skin peels.
The best part of the treatment is that it is painless
and has no "downtime" which means that you
can have the treatment in your lunch hour and return
to work in the afternoon.
Are You a Candidate For Microdermabrasion?
Good candidates for microdermabrasion are individuals
with acne prone or blotchy skin, and those with small
scars, fine lines, keratoses, large pores or white spots.
If you have sun damage or uneven texture and would like
to improve the condition of your skin, you are also
a candidate for microdermabrasion.
What to Expect During a Treatment
The treatments typically last 20 to 30 minutes for the
face. If your treatment includes the neck and upper
chest area, it may last up to an hour. A normal course
of microdermabrasion treatments varies between 4 to
8 at approximately 2 week intervals. Most patients actually
feel and see a difference just after one or two treatments
but schedule additional treatments to increase this
improvement.
