Microdermabrasion is one of the most popular,
non-invasive procedures done in the United States
today.
With microdermabrasion, small crystals are applied
to the skin. The crystals superficially abrade
the skin, removing dead skin cells, oil &
other debris particles that build up on the skin
and clog pores. A vaccum device is then used to
suck up the crystals and all the particles &
skin cells loosen in the process. When used alone,
or in combination with surgery, facials, moisturizing
treatments and chemical peels, Microdermabrsion
can significantly help improve the look &
apperance of the skin.
There are many advantages to microdermabrasion.
The treatments are fairly short, only 15-30 minutes
in duration. Micro dermabrasion treatments are
generally painless. Some discomfort can be felt
as the crystals are applied, but this is short.
There are very few side effects with Micro dermabrasion
treatments. Some pinkish skin coloration is sometimes
reported, but this dissapates quickly; usually
within 24 hours. Microdermabrasion is safe for
all skin types and particularly Asian, Hispanic
and African American skin types.
