Diamond Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure used to renew overall skin tone and texture. It can help improve the appearance of skin affected by sun exposure , wrinkles, acne and other conditions.

Do you have any of the following concerns?

What is Microdermabrasion?

The procedure uses a special applicator with an abrasive surface to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it.

How does Microdermabrasion work?

Diamond microdermabrasion on the other hand involves the use of a diamond-tipped wand that is used to slough away the top level of the skin (an abrasive procedure) while the wand's vacuum sucks up dirt and dead skin cells. No particles are left on the skin.

The skin is deeply exfoliated by the crystals or the diamond tip, skin feels softer and smoother immediately after treatment. The exfoliation also helps reduce the formation of comedones and brightens the complexion. The suction aspect of the treatment is as vital as the exfoliation itself (it isn't just helpful in sucking away exfoliated skin).

After the Treatment?

Common side effects of Microdermabrasion include slight redness.You can expect to see noticeable results immediately after the procedure. The number of treatment sessions will depend on the severity of your skin concerns as well as your expectations.

More about Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a special device to exfoliate the top layer of skin. This treatment is commonly used to improve the appearance of skin by reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks.

Microdermabrasion is also known as microderm and is often referred to as a microderm facial. The procedure is typically performed in a spa or medical office setting by a licensed skincare professional.

During a microdermabrasion facial, the technician will use a handheld device to spray tiny crystals onto the skin. These crystals help to exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells, which can clog pores and cause breakouts. The device also has a vacuum attachment that removes the crystals and dead skin cells from the skin.

Microdermabrasion treatment is typically painless and has very little downtime. Most people can return to their regular activities immediately after the procedure. The benefits of microdermabrasion include brighter, smoother, and more even-toned skin. The treatment can also improve the appearance of sun damage, age spots, and hyperpigmentation.

In addition to improving the overall appearance of the skin, microdermabrasion can also be used to specifically target stretch marks and acne scars. While results may vary, many people report seeing improvement in the appearance of these types of skin concerns after undergoing a series of microdermabrasion treatments.

One of the main benefits of microdermabrasion is that it is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that can be used on all skin types. However, it is important to note that microdermabrasion may not be suitable for those with severe acne or other skin conditions. It is always best to consult with a skincare professional before undergoing any type of cosmetic procedure.

Overall, microdermabrasion is a safe and effective way to improve the appearance of skin. While individual results may vary, many people find that microdermabrasion is an excellent option for achieving smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin.
