Microdermabrasion
(an intensive treatment using special micro crystals to

of the skin) Microdermabrasion is a system that allows
a jet of fine, natural, mineral crystals (Corundum Powder)

dry, dead or redundant cell tissue with little trauma,

Questions
and Answers about Micro-Dermabrasion
What
is a Micro-Dermabrasion treatment like?
With
the aid of micro-crystals vacuumed through a delicate
hand piece, held at a precise 
angle
to the skin, an aesthetician effects a superficial skin
polishing. In as little as twenty minutes this gentle
abrasive technique efficiently produces satisfying results.
Treatments are applied through a course of weekly sessions.
Micro-Dermabrasion enhance skin condition and do what
no other available treatment can (without surgery) in
combating the signs of aging skin. Most importantly, it
is safe to use on all skin types and colors.
Does
Micro-Dermabrasion hurt?
No.
The Micro-Dermabrasion peels the skin, but it is not painful
and does not require pre-treatment or topical anesthesia.
How
many times does the Micro-Dermabrasion need to be performed
to achieve results?
The
average patient requires between 5-9 treatments spaced
1-2 weeks apart to see results. However, it appears that
because patients do see continuing results, many choose
to have the procedure performed monthly as a maintenance
treatment.
What
results can you expect?
Depending
on the area treated, you will notice an improvement in
your skin's appearance. Acne scars will be less obvious.
Age spots and fine lines are erased and many patients
report that their skin seems to be softer, smoother and
younger-looking.
What
to expect after procedure?
1.
Skin Peeling. The skin may feel tight as if exposed to
the sun or wind for a while after treatment. Some skins
may peel.
2. Slight Redness & Swelling. Deeper treatment
level for more blemished or thicker skins. The skin will
appear slightly red and swollen from a few hours to a
few days for more sensitive skins. Some skins may peel.
Are
there any risks with the procedure?
There
are minimal risks with the procedure, the most common
side effect being redness of the skin which usually is
gone after 24-48 hours and easily covered with makeup;
however, men having the procedure performed are finding
that the redness is minor and short lasting.
How
should I care for a treated area?
Pre-Treatment:
Avoid direct sun exposure 1 week prior to treatment.
Discontinue glycolic or Retin-A products 3 days prior.
