Microdermabrasion
It
is a quick, safe, effective form of exfoliation for all skin types
and colors with no downtime and minimal pain or discomfort. It
has been available in Europe since the late 1980’s. It uses
a diamond-tipped applicator with a slight suction to remove dead
or damaged skin cells. Skin will appear softer, smoother, brighter,
clearer, fresher and younger looking.
Diamond
microdermabrasion systems operate without the need for crystals.
The exfoliation process occurs when a diamond tipped head makes
contact with the skin.
Everyone
can benefit from Microdermabrasion
Men
and Women of any skin type or colors. Even normal skin can be
made to look fresher with a warm glow.
The
most common areas that are treated are the face and neck. In addition
we can treat the chest, shoulders, back, hands, knees and elbows.
Any body area can be treated.
How
does it work?
Microdermabrasion
is a gentle exfoliation that is performed with a diamond-encrusted
applicator tip. The tip passes over the skins surface, and
creates a gentle vacuum. The diamond tip gently exfoliates
approximately 20-25 microns of dead skin cells of the outermost
layer (stratum corneum).
This
treatment is meant to be progressive not aggressive. Generally
results are more noticeable after the third treatment. After the
first session the skin will appear fresher, cleaner, smoother
and softer for some clients. Usually treatments are performed
every 4 weeks, but can be done more frequently. A typical course
of treatment is a series of six Microdermabrasion sessions. Maintenance
treatments are suggested once every one to one and a half months.
You may apply makeup 3 to 4 hours after your treatment.
Avoid abrasive sponges for 1 week after your treatment.
Avoid sun exposure.
DO NOT pick, peel, scrape, scratch or wax your skin.
If your skin is dry use moisturizer as many times a day as you
like.
