Microdermabrasion

What is Microdermabrasion?

A non-surgical, non-invasive skin conditioning.  It is a clinically proven treatment for treating fine lines, age spots, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks and variations in pigmentation.

How does it work?

Microdermabrasion stimulates the blood flow to the surface of the skin producing a increase of cell renewal and collagen growth.  The massaging action of the treatment creates a flushing and cleansing effect below the skin's surface.  This results in a more vibrant, healthy appearance and complexion.

Am I an ideal candidate?

Men and women of different skin color and texture experience remarkable improvements in their complexion.  Some existing skin conditions are not compatable with microdermabrasion. 

What can I expect during the procedure?

Microdermabrasion is a controlled mechanical peel. 

The procedure is performed with a light suction of micro crystals that look like fine ground sugar.  Using a delicate handpiece, the crystals are passed across the skin at a high rate of speed resulting in a mild abrasion.  After the treatment, your skin will have a fresh pink glow and you will notice a softer skin texture. 

How many treatments will I need to accomplish a new rejuvenated appearance?

The number of treatments will depend on your skin type, condition, and desired results.  On average, three to five treatments, at about one to two weeks apart, will be necessary to achieve a dramatic improvement.  To maintain your results, subsequent treatments should be performed every few months.
