Microdermabrasion - Exfoliation for all Skin Types

For soft, smoother looking skin

How does Microdermabrasion work?

It is a gentle exfoliation performed with a jet of mine minerals passing over the skin's surface by creating a gentle vacuum. The crystals lay on the along with dead/damaged skin cells. The crystals gently exfoliate approximately 20 to 25 microns of dead skin cells of the outermost layer (stratum corneum).

Who can benefit?

Men and women of any skin type or colour. Anyone with aging, congested, flaky, dry, devitalized, thickened, blemished, dull and sun damaged skin will have it rejuvenated and refreshed. Blotchiness, uneven skin tones and texture will also be improved.

What body areas can be treated?

Most common areas of treatment are the face, neck, chest, shoulders, back, hands, kness and elbows. Area of concern which may be treated include:

• Face and body peeling
• Lined, wrinkled or sun-damaged skins
• Dull, congested, thick or blemished skins
• Active acne
• Scar revision
• Hyperpigmentation
• Stretch marks
• General dermabrasion
• Tattoo removal

 
 



 

How many treatments will I need?

This treatment is meant to be progressive not aggressive. Generally, results are more noticeable after the third treatment. Although, after the first session the skin will appear fresher, cleaner, smoother, and softer for all clients. Usually treatments are performed every 7 to 10 days or every two weeks for a series of 6.

How long does each treatment take?

The actual treatment usually takes 15 to 40 minutes, depending on the body area. The treatment is applied to clean skin. After, a moisturizing cream with sun block is usually applied.

Any side effects?

Since there is minimal discomfort and no healing time, one can resume normal activites immediately after a treatment. You may experience a slight tingling, and after the skin may feel tighter, as if exposed to the wind or sun. Your skin may appear slightly flushed. This generally fades in 12 to 24 hours.

Imagine softer smoother, brighter, clearer, fresher and younger looking skin in under 40 minutes.

Approximately every 28 days we create a new layer of skin. As new cells for they push their way to the surface and then the dead/damaged skin cells settle on the surface. This can cause enlarged pores, a bumoy uneven texture, and a dull appearance. As we age this process slows down leading to the appearance of older skin with less radiance.

Quick safe and effective!!

Microdermabrasion is a quick, safe and effective for exfoliation for all skin types and colours with no downtime and virtually no discomfort. It is achieved by the use of inert corundum aluminum oxide mineral micro crystals to remove dead or damaged skin cells.

Improvements you can see!

This is a relatively painless procedure which gives quick, immediate results and is performed on an outpatient basis. You will leave the clinic with a clean fresh sparkling tone due to the regeneration of the epidermis.
