Microdermabrasion is a procedure that usually takes about one hour. It is a minimally invasive procedure used to improve overall skin tone and texture. It improves the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, acne scarring, melasma, age spots and other skin-related concerns.
Microdermabrasion uses a special diamond-tip applicator that has an abrasive surface that gently sands away the outer layer of the skin to create younger,rejuvenated looking skin. A diamond-tip hand piece is used to gently exfoliate dead cells in your skin, while suctioning them off immediately. The pressure applied on the hand piece will determine the depth of the abrasion as well as how long the suction remains on the skin.
Microdermabrasion is considered a safe procedure for most skin types. This procedure is effective for those with the following skin concerns:
- fine lines and wrinkles
- hyperpigmentation, age spots and brown spots
- enlarged pores and blackheads
- acne and acne scars
- stretch marks
- dull-looking skin complexion
- uneven skin tone and texture
- melasma
- sun damage
What to expect after microdermabrasion.
There is little to no downtime after microdermabrasion. You should be able to resume your daily activities immediately. Common side effects of microdermabrasion include mild tenderness, swelling, and redness. These generally go away within a few hours after treatment.
Keep your skin hydrated and use gentle skin care products. It’s extremely important to protect your skin with sunscreen. Your skin can be more sensitive to the sun in the few weeks after the treatment.
You can expect to see noticeable results immediately after the procedure. The number of microdermabrasion sessions needed will depend on the severity of your skin concerns as well as your expectations. A plan will be made for the initial number of sessions, as well as periodic maintenance treatments.
