Microdermabrasion, also known as power peel, derma-peel or Parisian peel, is a re-surfacing which exfoliates the skin. This treatment uses a diamond tip wand to "slough off" dead skin cells and buff the surface layer of the skin.

Microdermabrasion Skin Treatment
 

What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a skin treatment, that gradually and gently abrades the skin surface. It is used to rematerialize the skin and treat a range of skin issues. Microdermabrasion is one of the most recent skin care techniques that is quickly becoming mainstream. Our DiamondTome MicroDermabrasion Machine uses a diamond-tip wand, not crystals, to gently and effectively exfoliate and polish the skin. The treatment is usually done to the face, chest, neck, arms or hands, making it an extensive all-embracing procedure.


Candidates for Microdermabrasion
While microdermabrasion is most effective for patients in the early stages of aging, teens have also started to benefit from this technique. Microdermabrasion can reduce mild acne scarring and hyperpigmentation. Improving the appearance of poorly textured skin, fine lines, and large or clogged pores. The procedure is considered effective for both dark and light skinned patients. Microdermabrasion is arguably one of the most popular, time-proven methods of consistent skin care that dramatically improves skin tone and texture. Microdermabrasion is used to treat a variety of skin conditions including acne, stretch marks, acne scars, age spots, enlarged pores, wrinkles, or rosacea. Microdermabrasion works especially well as a way to clean out clogged pores. It's a useful alternative for patients whose skin is too sensitive to use anti-acne drugs like Retin-A.



How it works

The diamond-tip wand is applied to the skin in a soft, uniform and methodical motion to exfoliate and polish the skin. Microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation that removes the uppermost layer of dead skin cells from the face, chest and hands. For best results, it is recommended you get a series of treatments and use in conjunction with anti-aging skin care products. Microdermabrasion takes about 30-40 minutes and there is little to no down-time for the skin to recover. Microdermabrasion also promotes the production of new cells in the basal (deepest) layer of the dermis. Microdermabrasion enhances the skin's condition by stimulating collagen production and does what no other available non-surgical treatment can do in combating the signs of aging skin.


Typical Microdermabrasion results
After your first treatment, your skin will have a fresh, pink glow and smooth texture. Improvements continue throughout your treatment program. Stretch marks and acne scars will be less obvious. Age spots and fine lines are reduced, and many Microdermabrasion clients report that their skin seems softer, tighter, smoother and younger looking.
