How does Micro Derm Abrasion Work?

Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure used to renew overall skin tone and texture. It can help improve the appearance of skin affected by sun exposure, wrinkles, acne, and other conditions.

During the procedure, a special applicator with an abrasive surface gently sands away the thick outer layer of the skin, rejuvenating it.Unlike chemical peels, microdermabrasion relies on mechanical exfoliation, making it suitable for all skin types and resulting in minimal recovery time.

Who is Micro Derm Abrasion recommended for?

Dull or Uneven Skin Tone: Microdermabrasion helps brighten and even out skin tone by removing dead skin cells. It’s suitable for those with sun damage, mild pigmentation issues, or dull complexion.

Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Individuals with fine lines benefit from microdermabrasion. It stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture.

Acne and Acne Scarring: Microdermabrasion can reduce acne scars and improve overall skin texture. It’s effective for mild to moderate acne.

What are the Optimal Results?

Improved Skin Texture: Smoother, softer skin due to exfoliation. Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Even Skin Tone: Diminished sunspots, age spots, and mild pigmentation. Enhanced overall complexion.

Reduced Pore Size: Clearer, less congested pores. Minimized appearance of enlarged pores.

Stimulated Collagen Production: Firmer, more youthful skin. Improved elasticity.

Considerations before Treatment

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Refrain from sun exposure, tanning creams, and waxing for about a week before treatment.
  • Exfoliating Products: Stop using exfoliating creams and masks approximately 3 days prior to the procedure.
  • Makeup Removal: Remove any makeup and cleanse your face before the treatment begins.

Importance of Cosmeceuticals in Micro Derm Abrasion

Enhanced Absorption: Microdermabrasion preps the skin by gently exfoliating the top layer. As a result, cosmeceuticals and medications can penetrate better, maximizing their benefits.

Targeted Results: Brightening agents, amino peptides, vitamins, and beneficial extracts are more readily absorbed after microdermabrasion. This accelerates visible improvements in skin tone and texture.
