What is it?
 Microdermabrasion is one of the most preventative and corrective treatments for all skin types available.  It is a quick, safe, and effective form of exfoliation for all skin types and colours with no down-time and virtually no discomfort.  It has been available in Europe since the late 1980s.

Its results are achieved by the use of Inert Corundum Aluminum Oxide Mineral Micro Crystals that remove dead or damaged skin cells.  Skin will appear softer, smoother, brighter, clearer, fresher and younger looking.

Who is it Recommended For?
It is recommended for people with the following

  • Sun damaged skin
  • Uneven, granular skin
  • Blackheads and comedones.
  • Fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Enlarged pores.
  • Acne scars.
  • Some minor surgical scars.
  • Some Stretch Marks.
  • What areas can be treated?

There are many areas that can be treated with Microdermabrasion.  Some common areas include:

  • Face.
  • Neck.
  • Chest.
  • Shoulders.
  • Back.
  • Hands.
  • Knees.
  • Elbows.


What are the advantages of Microdermabrasion?

This treatment is meant to be progressive, not aggressive.  Generally, results are more noticeable after the third treatment.  Although after the first session the skin will appear fresher, cleaner, smoother and softer, the treatment is usually performed every 7-10 days or every 2 weeks for a series of 6 treatments.  Maintenance treatments are suggested every 1 to 1½ months.

Can Microdermabrasion and Anti-Aging Treatment be Combined?
Combining Microdermabrasion with micro-current treatments, such as Anti-Aging Treatment, will achieve great results in all skin layers: Epidermis, Dermis, and Hypodermis (facial muscles). Micro-currents stimulate and re-educate facial muscles producing a non-surgical face lift.

How should the skin be treated after a treatment of Microdermabrasion?
In the first 48 hours, apply hydrating products regularly and as often as necessary.  If the skin is red or irritated for the first 24 hours, one should only use calming products only on the skin, as well as creams or serums.

During the 3rd and 4th days following the Microdermabrasion treatment, the skin may begin to peel, and one may choose to perform a mild exfoliation once a day to aide in the removal of the dead cells.  This mild exfoliation may to be repeated continuously for a few days depending on the amount of dead cells that must be removed.  Avoid Saunas, Swimming Pools, whirlpools, as well as all sun exposure and tanning salons.

During the 1st week, the client should continue to avoid all sun exposure and tanning salons, and continue the use of hydrating serum and cream.

Advice
A client should not apply any products that contain essential oils or other ingredients which may irritate the skin even further.

As well, not using products with AHA and Retinol during the complete process of Microdermabrasion will burn the skin.
