Microdermabrasion is a treatment that you can get at most day spas, resort spas and medical spas. First, the skin is washed to remove excess oil and dirt. Then an abrasive surface usually in the form of fine crystals are used to smooth out the top layers of the skin. Similar to the way sand paper smooths wood these crystals “sand” your face and/or décolleté. This may sound painful but at most it is slightly uncomfortable and definitely painless.
Any discomfort certainly pays off as after just one treatment the skin will have an improved texture and softness. One might also notice fewer imperfections such as wrinkles and acne scars. Over time, a series of treatments can make a big difference on the overall appearance of your skin.
Microdermabrasion Can:
• Improve mild acne
• Make large pores look smaller
• Reduce oiliness
• Soften the look of superficial acne scars
• Improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Smooth the skin and brighten the complexion
• Improve tone and texture of the skin
For more serious scars, severe or cystic acne, sagging skin, deep wrinkles or heavy lines microdermabrasion is not the solution.
You won't get all of the benefits of microdermabrasion with just one treatment. Even though your skin will feel softer after the first treatment, you'll need several treatments to actually see improvement. Some times you can buy a series of six treatments for a discounted price per treatment or even one at no cost so inquire with your Licensed Esthetician or medical spa professional if there is any discount for purchasing in bulk.
