Microdermabrasion
Medical Microdermabrasion uses no lasers or chemicals. The treatment involves passing a fine collection of medical grade crystals over the skin’s surface using a hand held device. The technique gently removes the dead skin cells and smoothes the surface of the skin through a process of exfoliation. The new, living skin cells beneath this top layer are revealed giving a younger, more rejuvenated appearance.The technique of Microdermabrasion is perfectly safe and painless. The treatment has been used to treat millions of patients over the last ten years bringing fantastic results. There are no side effects and it can even be slotted in during your lunch hour!
The whole procedure is usually complete within half an hour and results can be seen instantly. Some treatments may take longer depending on the skin condition and the overall required results. For longer lasting overall improved skin appearance, we recommend a course of treatments.
You will be advised on the number of treatments required at your first consultation. This will depend on the present condition of your skin, your desired results and your overall health at the time of treatment.
Microdermabrasion is ideal for diminishing or eliminating the following skin conditions:
- Blackhead or whitehead spots
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damaged skin
- Acne prone skin
- Superficial age spots
- Hyperpigmentation
- Oily skin
- Dry or patchy skin
