Microdermabrasion is a safe and effective method for approving the appearance of skin and encouraging natural skin renewal. Different methods of microdermabrasion include mechanical abrasion from jets of zinc oxide or aluminum oxide crystals, fine organic particles, or a roughened surface. Particles are removed through the wand or hand-piece through which the abrasive particles are sprayed on the surface of the skin.
Microdermabrasion is a highly effective treatment designed to:
* smooth out the skin's texture
* brighten dull or sallow skin
* decongest stressed or blemished skin
* increase cell turnover and regeneration
* unclog and refine pores
* minimise fine lines and wrinkles by improving cellular renewal
What's involved?
After your skin is thoroughly cleansed, a diamond abrasive hand piece combined with suction is glided over the skin in a criss-cross motion, successfully removing dead skin cells and impurities.
When the build-up has been removed from the skin, a soothing vitamin mask is then applied to the skin, delivering intense moisture and
nutrients to fresh new skin cells.
What can I expect after the treatment?
* slight pinkness of the skin
* prickly/itchy feel to the skin
* a mild flaking or peeling effect
* a slight amount of pimple breakout may be experienced
How often can I have MicroDermabrasion?
For best results, MicroDermabrasion is ideal to have weekly, or for sensitive skins, fortnightly. Generally, a course of 6 treatments are highly recommended
Aftercare for the treatment
* Avoid sun exposure (always apply a SPF 30 plus)
* Avoid exfoliation 3 days prior and 7 days after treatment
* Avoid solariums/ tanning beds
* Avoid products that are too stimulating on the skin eg: Glycolic/AHA based.
