What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a very effective resurfacing cosmetic procedure that involves the use of fine, micro-crystals of aluminium oxide or a diamond tip to gently abrade the skin.

This leads to a smoother, more refined skin surface.

This treatment gives an immediately smoother complexion and encourages an increased speed of cell turnover. Microdermabrasion stimulates blood and lymph circulation which improves the amount of nutrients and oxygen available for skin cells.  Cells are stimulated to produce more collagen and elastin which can assist in improving  the overall strength and elasticity of the skin.

There are many skin types and conditions which will be suitable for Microdermabrasion and these clients will achieve great benefits.

• Oily, congested and thickened skin which have milia and comedones (blackheads or whiteheads) are very suited to this treatment.
• Clients with fine lines and  wrinkles, as well as clients with lip lines which causes their lipstick to bleed will love the results.
• People who have hyper-pigmentation, dry skin or scaly skin will enjoy the resurfacing they get from Microdermabrasion.

We space these treatments 14 days apart and the results are cumulative therefore some clients may be happy with the smoothing they receive after 1 treatment while most clients will benefit from 4 or more treatments to achieve the desired results for their specific skin concern.
