Microdermabrasion

Rough Skin, Sun Blotches, and Clogged Pores, Can Be Eliminated In 60 Minutes With Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a popular skin-polishing technique. It will even out blotchy skin from age spots, freckling from the sun and uneven pigmentation. The result is revitalized, younger looking skin.

What Are The Benefits Of Microdermabrasion?

  • Rejuvenates uneven, rough, sun-damaged skin
  • Lessens fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, lips and neck
  • Reduces age spots, freckles, blotchiness and stretch marks
  • Cleans up acne, whiteheads and blackheads, opens clogged pores and minimizes enlarged ones
  • Greatly minimizes scars caused by acne, chicken pox and burns

What Can I Expect During The Procedure?
Microdermabrasion safely treats the face, neck and chest area of people with all skin types and colors. The procedure is quite simple and produces remarkable results. Projected onto the skin under pressure, a stream of micro-crystals cleanses the surface. It is very much like "sand papering" the skin's surface. A mild suction vacuums away the dead outer layer of the skin through an attached hand piece. Deep cleaning is reached through small adjustments in the suction. After just one treatment, your skin will have a fresh pink glow. You will see improvement with each treatment! It takes about an hour and with little or no discomfort. Since there are no harsh chemicals or anesthetic used in this technique, so there is no down time. You can return to work or social activities immediately.

How Often Should I Have Microdermabrasion?
For optimum results, it is recommend 4 to 6 treatments be performed at least 7 to 14 days apart. Having a microdermabrasion performed on a monthly or bi-monthly schedule is a great way to maintain clean, healthy skin.

Are There Any Side Effects Of Microdermabrasion?
Possible side effects of Microdermabrasion are minimal and are temporary. Depending on sensitivity, the skin may have some puffiness and redness immediately after the procedure. These effects are greatly reduced or completely gone within a few hours.

Is There A Way To Make Microdermabrasion More Effective?
At Dermalase, we customize every microdermabrasion based on the particular needs of the patient. Some patients need a glycolic peel or ECHO2 treatment ; others may require a specific type of mask. These treatments will help enhance the effectiveness of the procedure giving you better, longer lasting results. Only a trained aesthetician can determine what you need. Dermalase provides this extra service many other spas don't.
