As we get older, we
do not shed dead skin cells as fast as we did when we were younger. The
accumulation of dead cells (Stratum Corneum) tend to give us an older, dull
appearance.
Microdermabrasion is the most natural way to evenly and
safely exfoliate the skin with or without chemicals. It is one of the most
requested non-invasive cosmetic procedures with no
downtime.
Microdermabrasion is right for all skin types and for anyone
interested in minimizing the appearance of scarring, fine lines, acne, wrinkles,
pigmentation, uneven skin tone and sun damage.
We start by cleaning the
skin. A peel prep is then applied followed by a mild Glycolic Peel. After the
glycolic peel is neutralized, the skin is dried and the microdermabrasion is
performed. When the procedure is finished, we apply a Moisturizer and a Vitamin
A Booster Treatment. We finish up by applying a Sun Block for
protection.
During microdermabrasion you may feel a very mild scratching
sensation as the crystals abrade the skin. Following the treatment, you can
expect mild redness that may last 30 minutes to a
day, depending on the aggressiveness of the peel. Microdermabrasion will leave
your skin glowing.
