What is Microdermabrasion ?
Microdermabrasion is the process of removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells (the stratum corneum). This can be achieved by “sandblasting” the skin with crystals or granules or by scraping the surface of the skin. The process can stimulate the growth of new skin cells as well as “polish” the skin.
How long does the treatment take ?
The process takes only 20 – 30 minutes and feels like a facial massage. Immediately after the treatment, some patients will have a temporary rosy color to their skin which can last up to an hour. You can apply skin care products, sunscreen, and make-up immediately after treatment. It’s the perfect lunch hour treatment!
Does it hurt ?
No. It is soothing and comfortable.
What do I need to do before a treatment ?
Nothing. Your skin will be cleansed during your treatment. Sunscreen should be applied after the treatment is completed.
It is one of the fastest and most simple ways to create a “fresher” look that renew your skin. The microdermabrasion treatment involves a light abrasion (rubbing) of the skin to remove sun-spots, areas of darkened skin pigmentation, sun-damaged skin, and superficial fine lines and wrinkles.
Microdermabrasion is a wonderful way to clear away the damaged skin gently without any real down time!
Here at Second look Aesthetics, we often combine microdermabrasion with other complimentary treatments like chemical peels for greater effect.
