What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a natural, non-invasive way to get back that youthful looking skin without the need for harsh chemicals, lasers, or surgery. With no anesthesia needed and no downtime, microdermabrasion is a true Lunchtime peel; patients can resume their normal activities immediately after a microdermabrasion treatment.
How does Microdermabrasion work?
Microdermabrasion uses a hand piece with a combination of crystal flow and vacuum suction to remove dead skin cells from the superficial layer of the skin. As the crystals move over the skin they remove the dead, flaking skin cells, thus evening out skin tone and promoting the growth of healthy new skin cells giving the skin an overall fresh, healthy looking glow.
