Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion - A Treatment Program to Fit Your Needs
Microdermabrasion is mechanical exfoliation which can remove the uppermost layer of dead skin cells from the face, chest and hands. For best results, it is recommended you get a series of treatments, in conjunction with anti-aging skin care products.

Many people have seen results after one DERMAGLOW treatment. However, for better results, your skin care professional may recommend a series for your specific needs that will include a designated number of treatments and the time intervals between each treatment.

Post Treatment - Immediately following the DERMAGLOW treatment, residual micro-crystals are brushed off and the area is cleansed and rinsed. A moisturizing agent with sunscreen is then applied, which helps protect the skin. A slight windburn sensation may be experienced. You may return to your daily activities immediately after treatment.

What is the operational mechanism behind microdermabrasion? - A closed vacuum system delivers aluminum oxide crystals through a tube and hand-piece creating a vacuum when the hand-piece is against the skin. The particle flow begins when the hand-piece is sealed against the skin; particles flow out of the accelerator impacting the skin and, combined with skin debris, are suctioned back through the hand-piece and tubing into the waste canister. The particle flow and suctioning stops once the seal is broken.
