Microdermabrasion

What is a Medical Microdermabrasion treatment?

A medical microdermabrasion treatment safely exfoliates dead skin cells for smoother, healthier, less blotchy-looking skin. It can be performed on light to dark skin, and treatment areas include the face, neck, chest, arms, elbows, knees, and more. The procedure is non-surgical and involves virtually no discomfort or downtime. Dermacare’s microdermabrasion treatment unit is crystal-free and is equipped with a diamond encrusted wand and vacuum system. This unit is only available to doctor's offices, and enables the aesthetician to provide a deeper, more effective exfoliation of the skin.

Indications:

* Dull or oily skin
* Enlarged and/or congested pores
* Leathery skin texture

How long does the treatment take?

A single procedure takes between 20 to 30 minutes and should be repeated at intervals of 1 to 2 weeks depending on skin type and condition.

Is it safe?

Yes. A medical microdermabrasion treatment is a safe, non-surgical approach to skin rejuvenation that has been performed for years in Europe and has gained popularity in the United States in the last decade.

Is it painful?

Most patients report mild to no discomfort during the procedure and have even found it to be pleasurable. The settings are adjustable, so the treatment is performed at a level comfortable for the patient. After the procedure, there is a slight blushing of the skin, which disappears within 1 to 2 hours.

How soon are results seen?

Many patients experience softer, smoother, glowing skin immediately after the first treatment. The recommended treatment plan can range from 2 to 12 treatments, depending on the condition and type of your skin and the results desired.

Can a Medical Microdermabrasion treatment be combined with other procedures?

Yes. A medical microdermabrasion treatment is the perfect complement to other procedures including Laser Genesis, FotoFacial™, BOTOX® Cosmetic, chemical peels, etc.
