About Microdermabrasion


What are the advantages of this treatment?

Microdermabrasion is a great alternative to chemical peels. Not all skin types are able to tolerate glycolics and other peels. The results are more predictable with microdermabrasion and can be accomplished in gradual stages with no down time or redness. A single treatment may remove as much stratum corneum (the top layer of skin) as three glycolic peels. Also your SkinMedics esthetician is able to target trouble areas for more intense treatments. This procedure offers no down time, no discomfort, no side effects and no recovery time. Your skin will feel vibrant and healthy and you will notice an immediate difference in your softer, smoother skin.
