These crystals also have disinfecting and drying properties to help clean the skin of infected lesions such as acne. The dead skin cells are lifted from the surface by this abrasion, stimulating new skin growth.
Microdermabrasion may be used to treat a number of conditions, including;
- All over skin rejuvenation
- Acne and blemishes
- Acne, surgical or raised scars
- Stretch marks
- Ageing and sun damage
- Facial, body and hand exfoliation
- Mild to moderate lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged, obstructed or blocked pores
- Rough, unevenly textured skin
- Hyperpigmentation
- Reduction of broken capillaries
- Lip Lines
Microdermabrasion is a very safe and gentle process. There are very few risks to Microdermabrasion, although changes in pigmentation (usually areas of increased pigmentation) are possible - usually in those with darker skin types.
Generally, a session of Microdermabrasion of the face will take approximately 60 minutes. It is not painful and it may feel like you are having a facial. After Microdermabrasion, your skin may appear red and this usually persists for a short time only. You will notice that your skin feels soft and smooth afterwards.
