Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is the safer, easier alternative to chemical peels or laser resurfacing called the ‘lunch time peel’. Because of its quick, easy application and lack of recovery time, microdermabrasion has become a standard in skin rejuvenation and care.

Using vacuum and positive pressure, the machine and a specially designed hand piece pass micro-fine crystals across the skin. As the crystals make contact, layers of the stratum corneum are exfoliated, then vacuumed away with the dead skin cells.

The process rejuvenates the skin in a number of ways. The combination of skin exfoliation and slight vacuum stimulates fibroblasts to produce new healthy living cells in the basal layer of the epidermis. This leads to cell turnover and improved blood flow.

Microdermabrasion should be performed in a progressive rather than an aggressive manner. Optimum results are obtained through a series of treatments spaced seven to ten days apart.

There is virtually no healing time required with microdermabrasion, although rebuilding of the stratum corneum is rapid. The average time for a complete cell regeneration and upward migration is 4-5 weeks. At the end of this time you will see significant results.

A single microdermabrasion treatment may remove as much stratum corneum as three 30% glycolic treatments, or a single 70% glycolic treatment.
