Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is effective in reducing fine lines, "crow's feet,"
age spots and acne scars. It stimulates the production of skin cells
and collagen. It has proven to be a very popular nonsurgical
cosmetic procedure.
Technique:
The hand piece emits crystals onto the surface of the skin, resulting
in a gentle abrasion or "polishing" process. Each treatment takes 30
minutes . The number of treatments recommended for maximal
results can range between 5 and 10, spaced from 2 to 3 weeks
apart. Maintenance of results requires periodic repeat treatments
after the initial regimen is completed. Microdermabrasion may be
combined with a IPL to increase the effect.
Benefits:
• Virtually no side effects.
• Gives the skin an overall fresh, healthy-looking glow.
• Nonsurgical, safe, effective "lunch hour" procedure.
• Effective on all skin colors and types.
• No anesthetic required.
• Excellent for skin sensitive to chemical procedures.
• Normal activities can be resumed immediately.
Other Considerations:
• Requires multiple sessions and maintenance treatments.
• Patients with good skin tone will show best results.
• An individualized skin care program may be recommended
to maximize results.
