 Microdermabrasion
|
 What is it and how does it work? |
Microdermabrasion is a clinically proven technique for treating fine lines, wrinkles, age spots,
acne scars, stretch marks and hyperpigmentation. This technology planes and refines skin texture
allowing your skins' natural regeneration process to diminish imperfections. This process can
result in up to a 30% increase in the elasticity of the skin restoring confidence to the most
visible part of your body.
This non-invasive procedure is performed with a light suction of
fine crystals that look like fine ground sugar. These crystals are passed across the skin at a
high rate of speed, resulting in an abrasion. This process stimulates circulation beneath the
surface of the skin, leaving the skin rejuvenated. Unlike lasers, there is no generation of
heat, so the procedure can be administers on all different skin types. No anesthesia is
required. The process requires no healing time and can be done on your lunch break. Results are
immediate with smooth, glowing skin and overall tone and texture improvements.

| Does it hurt? |
Microdermabrasion is a relatively painless procedure. The treatment feels like a mild
biting sensation, similar to the feeling of stinging rain drops.
|
| How long does it take, and how many treatments will I need? |
Treatment times and number of treatments will vary, depending on your skin type and the condition
it is in. Results are usually immediate, and everyone notices an amazing difference after just
one treatment. Consultations are free, and we invite you to call us to find out more.
|
| How long does it take to recover from a treatment? |
There is no down time. You'll feel similar to having had a mild sunburn and feel tightening
of the skin. You can apply moisturizer on the treated area and return to your day of activity as normal!
|
| Am I a good candidate for microdermabrasion? |
Virtually anyone interested in improving the appearance of their skin can benefit from
microdermabrasion regardless of age, ethnicity, or skin type. Microdermabrasion is most commonly
performed on the face, but can also be safely performed on other areas of the body.
