Frequently Asked Questions
What does the procedure involve?
The procedure involves spraying a fine jet of sand-like crystals onto the skin and, using a highly controlled vacuum, sweeping up the crystals and the top epidermal layer. It is an intense exfoliation process that rejuvenates the skin by utilizing ultra-fine aluminium oxide crystals to remove the upper layer of the stratum corneum. The technician controls the suction and level of the blast, and eye shields are worn by the patient to protect the eye. As microdermabrasion brushes away the damaged cell layers, it also stimulates the skin’s production of collagen and helps to maintain the elasticity of the skin. This process exfoliates the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin which will result in a firmer, more youthful looking skin over time. Microdermabrasion is a subtle procedure that softens the problem areas of the skin.
