What Is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a mini procedure that involves the skin being "sandblasted" by aluminum oxide crystals, baking soda, salt or corn cob granules to remove the stratum corneum (top) layer of the skin; dead skin cells.  Microdermabrasion also promotes the production of new cells in the basal (deepest) layer of the dermis.  This microdermabrasion procedure may not give everyone the same results but if you have the money it is a nice treat and requires no down time.  It can clean your pores incredibly and hinder any future breaks outs if used on a regular basis.  Microdermabrasion also stimulates collagen net working to further even out skin texture and appearance.

Microdermabrasion is a mechanical way of removing dead skin cells on the surface of the skin and manipulating the lower layers of skin to slough off sun damage cells that cause brown spots and uneven skin tone. Microdermabrasion also improves acne scares, shrinks pores, balances oil production, smoothes tine lines and  wrinkles, improves collagen and elastin production to decrease the aging process of the skin.

How Does Microdermabrasion Work?
Microdermabrasion uses Microcrystals to lightly bombard the skin and exfoliate away the dull layer of stratum corneum of your skin. A slight vacuum is also used to remove the exfoliate cells and Corundum from your skin surface.
