Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion Treatment | Laser Facial | Skin Whitening Treatment

Your skin is continuously exposed to environmental elements throughout your life. Over the years, the sun, pollution, and other damaging agents can leave a negative impact on your skin. Microdermabrasion treatment can help reduce or eliminate wrinkles and fine lines, “crow’s feet,” age spots, light acne scars, and undesired pigmentation that may appear on the skin over time.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical, non-invasive procedure that makes use of a spray of microcrystals to remove the outermost layer of dry, dead skin cells and reveal younger, healthier-looking skin. Microdermabrasion also stimulates the production of a new underlying layer of skin cells with higher levels of collagen and elastin, which further improves your skin’s appearance. Microdermabrasion is much more gentle when compared to dermabrasion. Dermabrasion is a more intensive procedure used to treat deeper facial lines, extreme sun damage, and scars.
The microdermabrasion that a dermatologist performs differs from the one that you can do at home with a kit. A dermatologist’s treatment goes a bit deeper into the skin. Still, the procedure is safe for all skin colors.

Microdermabrasion Treatments

are carried out with a minimally abrasive instrument that gently sands your skin, removing the thicker, uneven outer layer. Do you ever look in the mirror and wish that your face had a more even skin tone? If you answered yes, you may want to consider microdermabrasion. This non-invasive treatment gently exfoliates your skin. After a series of treatments, your complexion can appear smoother, brighter, glowing, and more even in color. Microdermabrasion appeals to many patients. They like that they can see more youthful skin without having downtime. Dermatologists also use microdermabrasion to improve the results of anti-aging products and skin-bleaching products. Microdermabrasion improves the penetration of these products to the skin. This type of skin rejuvenation is used to treat light scarring, discoloration, sun damage, and stretch marks. Microdermabrasion can:

Collagen

Collagen is a protein in your skin that’s abundant when you’re a child and makes skin appear taut and smooth. Collagen production declines as we age, which leads to looser, uneven skin. Microdermabrasion helps to thicken your collagen, which results in a younger-looking complexion.

Warning

Although microdermabrasion is a gentle, non-invasive treatment, you should see a dermatologist before getting this treatment at a spa or using an at-home microdermabrasion kit if you:

Have a mole or other spot on your skin that is growing, bleeding, or changing in any way. This spot could be skin cancer.
Are taking (or have taken) the acne medicine, isotretinoin, which is prescribed to treat severe acne. If you have taken this medicine within the past 6 months, you have a higher risk for complications, including scarring. You may need to wait before having microdermabrasion.
Scar easily.

The Basics

Microdermabrasion is a procedure that involves application of tiny rough grains to sand/buff away the surface layer of skin. It’s usually done to the face, chest, neck, arms or hands. Before we can understand how microdermabrasion works, it’s important to understand how skin works.

Your skin is made up of two main layers, the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the layer closest to the outside world. It’s a set of dead skin cells on top of another layer of cells that are in the process of maturing. The topmost layer is called the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum mostly acts as a barrier between the outside world and the lower skin layers. It keeps all but the smallest molecules from getting through.

When you put lotions or creams on your skin, some of the moisture passes through the stratum corneum, but not all of it. This layer is home to many minor skin imperfections like fine wrinkle lines and blemishes.

All of the action in microdermabrasion takes place at the level of the stratum corneum. Since it only targets the epidermis (and not the dermis), it is more accurate to call it micro-epi-dermabrasion.

Procedure

Microdermabrasion uses tiny exfoliating crystals (Aluminium oxide) that are sprayed on the skin. It is a best solution for problems such as dull skin, brown spots, and age spots.

The dermatologist uses a handheld device that gently removes the top layer of skin. You may feel a sanding sensation, but this is not painful. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to treat the entire face and about 20 minutes to treat the neck.

After the treatment, a moisturizer is applied.

In microdermabrasion, tiny crystals are sprayed onto the skin to gently remove the outer layer of your skin. This technique is less aggressive than dermabrasion, so you don’t need numbing medicine. It is basically an exfoliation and skin rejuvenation procedure that leaves skin looking softer and brighter.

Microdermabrasion Results

Your polished new look should be long-lasting, depending on the severity of your skin damage and the number of treatments that you receive. Many people have two microdermabrasion treatments per month at first and then one per month as part of a maintenance plan. Most patients need a series of treatments to see results. To treat signs of aging, a dermatologist may treat a patient weekly, every two weeks, or monthly. Most patients receive between 5 and 16 treatments. After a series of treatments, patients usually say they have smoother skin and a more-radiant complexion. Candidates You are a good candidate for Microdermabrasion if you have any one of the following:

Patients with rosacea or acne may also benefit from microdermabrasion treatments. The ideal candidates for microdermabrasion are healthy adults who have relatively minor skin conditions or imperfections and realistic expectations about what microdermabrasion can and cannot do. Because microdermabrasion is a mild, non-invasive procedure that cannot remedy sagging skin or correct deep facial creases or folds, such issues must be addressed with procedures such as face lift, laser skin tightening, and Thermage®.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

What you do after getting done with a this procedure ?

You may need to apply a moisturizer or other skin care products at home as per your dermatologist advise. You will be given a skin-care plan that includes sun protection. Protecting your skin from the sun helps ensure the best possible results and reduces the risk of side effects.

What is the downtime associated with this procedure ?

You will not have downtime or a recovery period. Some patients’ skin turns pink or red. The skin can swell a bit. These side effects are similar to having a sunburn or windburn for a day or two. During this time, some patients might feel uncomfortable returning to work or being in public.

When it is good to get another treatment ?

Microdermabrasion treats only the top layer of the skin, so the skin recovers quickly. Most people can safely have another treatment a week later. Some patients, however, need several weeks to recover.

What is the safety record ?

When performed by a dermatologist, microdermabrasion has an excellent safety record.

Microdermabrasion also is performed in salons and non-medical spas. You can reduce your risk for side effects by having microdermabrasion performed by a dermatologist.
