What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion, also known as microderm, is one of the easiest and most effective anti-aging treatments you can get. Its benefits are many: microderm softens fine lines and wrinkles, helps to smooth coarsely textured skin, decreases the appearance of scarring, decreases pore size, and reduces superficial hyper-pigmentation, also known as age spots. Microdermabrasion also makes it easier for high tech skin care products to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and help build collagen, which gives skin its youthful appearance.

Microdermabrasion is powerful mechanical exfoliation. Generally, either the original crystal microdermabrasion technology or the newer diamond tip. Both work by removing the upper most layer of dead skin cells from the face, chest and hands.

Microdermabrasion can achieve dramatic results. For the best results, it is generally recommended to get a series of treatments. Apply sunscreen and stay out of the sun after your treatment.
