Addressing Fall Allergies: Their Unexpected Impact on The Skin
Learn how to manage fall allergies with tips on prevention, treatment, and common triggers like mold, ragweed, and dust.
Did you know that microdermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure that removes dead cells using crushed crystals? It is a non-surgical skin procedure that helps remove the top layer of dead skin cells. This procedure is performed as an alternative to chemical peels and other methods used to treat scars, hyperpigmentation, photodamage, fine lines, and wrinkles. The goal is to give the skin a smoother appearance and feel. This article will discuss how microdermabrasion benefits people with dull or damaged skin, acne scars, blackheads, and fine lines.
While this article spells out some important information about 10 benefits of microdermabrasion , we highly recommend you read the full article, here are the key points we will focus on:
Microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation treatment that gently sloughs away dead surface skin cells and creates a smoother, softer appearance. It helps thicken your collagen, a protein in your skin that is abundant when you are young, and makes your complexion even and texture taut. As we age, our collagen production declines—along with the quality of skin’s appearance. During the treatment, microcrystals remove months of built-up dead skin cells, allowing your skin to glow like never before and improve its texture.
Microdermabrasion uses a medical-grade vacuum attached to a cylindrical handpiece that has a thin layer of crushed crystalline solids at the tip. The best quality machines use diamond dust as their crystal. The cosmetic specialist traces the tip along the surface of your skin as suction is applied, this creates a uniform pressure as diamond dust removes the topmost layer of skin cells. The dead skin cells get vacuumed up into the filter of the microdermabrasion device. It’s like a very fancy, very controlled, sandpapering of the skin. This process helps to exfoliate the dead skin, allowing your skin to breathe. It also improves the health and appearance of skin texture and reduces acne scars and spots. Patients can expect their skin to feel refreshed, soft and smooth. The experts at Bryn Mawr Dermatology thoroughly evaluate your skin before each microdermabrasion treatment. They ensure the procedure is safe for you and will provide the results you want—you may consider microdermabrasion to:
Here are the ten best reasons why microdermabrasion could be the right choice for you:
Microdermabrasion can be used to treat coarse skin. The microcrystals in the treatment help remove the outer layer of dead skin cells, revealing smooth new tissue underneath.
Microdermabrasion can smooth the edges and surface of a scar, as well as stimulate collagen production to produce healthy new skin cells—all of which help heal damaged tissue.
Microdermabrasion includes treatments that can help even skin tone, minimizing the appearance of age spots and other pigmentation problems.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive treatment that improves the appearance of the skin by removing dead cells from its surface with no numbing and little-to-no downtime.
Microdermabrasion can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and stimulate collagen production, which may prevent deeper wrinkles.
Microdermabrasion removes the outer layer of dead skin cells, exfoliating your face and revealing healthy new skin.
Microdermabrasion can make your skin look smoother and more even, minimizing the appearance of age spots or other skin discolorations.
Microdermabrasion is safe for all skin tones and even the most sensitive skin types since it is chemical and light-free.
Microdermabrasion is effective in treating congested pores by eliminating dead skin and oil, but it’s most powerful when you combine the treatment with alpha hydroxy acids.
Microdermabrasion is a painless facial treatment that helps improve the texture and appearance of your skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and lighten age spots and uneven pigmentation.
