MICRODERMABRASION
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a rejuvenation treatment that is designed to naturally support the growth of your skin cells via mechanical exfoliation and the use of medical grade nutrients and vitamins, therefore improving the texture & clarity of your skin.
How does it work? There are two clinical versions of microdermabrasion machines, both designed to exfoliate the skin's surface, revealing fresh new skin cells and stimulating collagen production.
One version, known as 'crystal microdermabrasion,' employs sand-like aluminum oxide crystals that are sprayed onto the skin's surface, acting like a sandblaster on the upper skin cells. The other version, called 'crystal-free' or 'diamond tip microdermabrasion,' utilizes a sterile diamond head to polish the upper layers of the skin.
Both methods involve applying suction, creating negative pressure on the skin to stimulate oxygen and blood flow. This increase in circulation benefits collagen and elastin synthesis, rejuvenating the skin and reducing signs of sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged and blocked pores, and dull appearances, leaving the skin clean and refreshed.
At MediSkin, we perform microdermabrasion using sterile diamond heads.
How many treatments will I need?
Usually a course of 3-6 treatments is recommended to improve lines, scars or other inflammatory skin conditions like acne and rosacea. However, gradual and progressive improvements are seen with each session in most people. We recommended to have a microdermabrasion at least every 6 month, during the seasonal changes or before a big event to clean and refresh the skin.
