Before advances in microdermabrasion technology led to the widespread availability of home microdermabrasion treatments, women who wanted to polish their skin for a youthful glow would have to visit their dermatologist to enjoy the benefits of microdermabrasion.

These early procedures required the use of lasers or chemicals, and often caused pain and discomfort, as well as required significant recovery time. In spite of these negative aspects, many women elected to put up with the discomfort and downtime in order to restore and maintain their youthful appearance.

Fortunately, modern microdermabrasion treatment options are much more convenient and are comfortable. Today, effective at home microdermabrasion treatments are available from any source that sells quality skin care products.

Microdermabrasion – Acne Miracle Cure?

Filed under Microdermabrasion

microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion acne treatment is a technique of smoothing the skin and unclogging skin pores. The treatment is relatively new, but its results are more than promising.

There is even more good news for acne sufferers! Microdermabrasion is much less invasive than classical acne surgery and it offers similar results.

How does it work?

It uses a mechanical device. The Microdermabrasion acne machine is used first to clean the skin and peel out the dead cells’ layer. In doing that it clears out the blocked pores. The machine works on the same principle as a vacuum cleaner. The Microdermabrasion treatment is similar to rather gently vacuuming your skin as opposed to the cutting action of invasive surgery. The second phase of the process is spraying the skin with an aluminum oxide. This spray eliminates the outer layer of dead skin cells.

The Microdermabrasion treatment works in two ways:

1. It heals already existing acne by cleaning the pores; 2. Then by eliminating the dead skin cells’ layer, it prevents pimples from appearing. Pimples are most often caused by dead skin cells that clog the skin’s pores. When you eliminate the dead skin cells the chance of having pimples is greatly decreased.

Wait, there’s even more. Microdermabrasion does not only cure acne. A very pleasing side effect of repeating this treatment is increased smoothness of skin by removing minor skin irregularities.

How many treatments are necessary?

Usually even one Microdermabrasion treatment can give results lasting several months. However, because Microdermabrasion concentrates mostly on the effects, not the cause of acne, it is not capable of a final cure of the disease.

You can expect that you will need to repeat the treatment after six to seven months. Used with other treatments, even one “skin vacuuming” can have almost permanent results.

Are there any precautions?

As Microdermabrasion is not a surgery and there’s no anesthesia required, there are few side effects. The one warning is that the patient should not be using Ro-accutane.

Unfortunately this very effective treatment is usually not covered by health insurance. The cost of Microdermabrasion becomes an important factor when deciding on treatment.

The Many Faces of Microdermabrasion

Filed under Microdermabrasion

microdermabrasion
Many of you I’m sure have heard of Microdermabrasion, but do you know exactly what it is? Let me give you a quick idea!

A dermatologist will use a special device to administer an exfoliation procedure or a “mini-peel” in which the skin is essentially “sandblasted” with fine crystals of aluminum oxide or other ingredients to remove the top layer of skin. This is performed by an aesthetician to lessen the appearance of ****** wrinkles, clear up acne and acne scares, improve the aging appearance of the skin, smoothing it and stimulating new cell growth.

Have you ever wanted to get rid of unwanted wrinkles on your face or smooth your face so that you look 5 years younger? Do you have acne scars, uneven skin pigment or other types of unwanted skin conditions on your face? Have you ever heard of Microdermabrasion?

If you have answered yes to any of the questions above then you probably would love to get a Microdermabrasion peel. This type of produce is extremely safe, cheap and effective. It is essentially sand blasting the skin on your face neck and/or back – removing a layer of skin, promoting new cell growth and as a result you get new, healthier looking skin.

There are new home microdermabrasion kits that you can buy that claim to have the same affects as a real microdermabrasion peel. There are also natural microdermabrasion products and procedures that consist of; Natural Microdermabrasion Scrub, Skin Balancing Tonic, Moisture Infusion Serum and a Microdermabrasion Applicator.

A company called DYNATRONICS CORP is developing a mini-microdermabrasion kit that is supposively the real deal. Its everything you get from the real thing but you can administer it yourself and save big bucks.

Microdermabrasion is can be combined with or confused with a chemical peel. Chemical peels are effective but slightly more dangerous and also, well, your putting chemicals on your face, which is not exactly the healthiest thing you can do for your body.

Last but not least, microdermabrasion can help you feel better about yourself. This is really the most important thing in life. If you dont like yourself, and dont feel good about yourself, other people cant either. Weather you need to smooth your rinkles, scars or rough skin or you want to look years younger and seal your pores, you are doing it to look and feel good about yourself! Just remeber, no body is perfect, but thats what makes us unique! Cheers!

Can acne scars return after being ground off with microdermabrasion?

Filed under Microdermabrasion

Steph asked:


A few months ago I managed to grind off all my raised acne scars with home microdermabrasion. A few weeks ago, some of the scars seemed to have returned. Is this indeed what happened? If so, how can I ensure that they do not return again? Or are they breakouts?

thanks.

Understanding Microdermabrasion

Filed under Microdermabrasion

microdermabrasion
What is microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a type of exfoliation of the skin. It is sort of like a “sand blasting” the skin using tiny crystals in a self contained unit. A specialist will apply these tiny crystals to your skin with a special machine, and then vacuums them back up with the same machine. This helps exfoliate the top layer of your skin. The specialist will adjust the amount of suction and crystal usage based on the client’s skin.

The small crystals I’ve mentioned are made of different materials. They can be made of aluminum dioxide, sodium chloride or corundum. When these crystals go against the skin, they help remove the dead skin cells that are on the top layer of your skin. It can be used on all skin types, though it must be adjusted for people with sensitive skin. When it comes to skin care, this is a method which is good for sun damaged skin, skin with acne scarring, fine lines, and also coarse skin.

Why do we want to exfoliate our skin? Your skin is constantly turning, and as we get older, this becomes a slower process. By leaving the older layers of skin on top, we have a dull and aged appearance. Exfoliating your skin, or gently removing that layer of dead skin cells allows your fresher skin to be exposed, which gives you that “glow” or a healthier appearance. There are many ways to exfoliate your skin, microdermabrasion being one of them.

While we can do mild exfoliation at home with gentle scrubs or with chemical enzymes, you can opt to go to a spa, medi-spa or dermatologist for other methods of exfoliation. This is a surface procedure, and isn’t a deep exfoliation. You can usually have this done at a local spa. As with any procedure like this, be sure to use your sunscreen regularly, so that your newly exposed skin doesn’t become damaged.

Like everything, you’ll want to consider contraindications. You don’t want to use microdermabrasion on a client with Rosacea, a client on Accutane, a diabetic who may wound easily, or someone with inflamed acne.

Exfoliation is an excellent way to freshen up your look. Your skin will have a radiant glow, along with a smoother surface for make-up application. If you’ve been thinking your skin is looking a bit dull or rough lately, maybe it’s time to try microdermabrasion. It’s amazing what a difference exfoliation makes.

Like any procedure you may think about having, be sure that the person operating the microdermabrasion machine is licensed. Feel free to ask them how many times they’ve performed the procedure and ask any questions you may have. During the procedure, you’ll be able to let them know if you need the flow of crystals adjusted if you’re uncomfortable. Most people don’t request that, and may ask for it stronger. If you’re a client thinking that stronger is better, trust your skin care specialist to know what is best, as you don’t want to damage your skin by being too aggressive.

If you are the one performing the procedure, always make sure you have a signed consent form before starting.
