Microdermabrasion is a beautification technique that is used mainly to 'polish' the face and the neck. Better known as 'skin polishing', this technique is fast turning into a rage amongst those wanting a blemish-free complexion.
Q. What is Microdermabrasion (MDA) and how does it work ?
MDA is a superficial skin polishing procedure. This machine, exclusive to physician providers, propels a fine stream of inert microscopic crystals against the skin to gently exfoliate the epidermal layer and promote a thicker healthier dermis while smoothing and refreshing the skin. The use of a vacuum within the system helps to increase circulation in the area.
Microdermabrasion can alleviate and repair skin : -
Sun Damage
Age Spots
Fine Lines from aging
Reduce Acne Scarring
Extract blackheads and whiteheads
Aid in minor scar revision
Reduce Hyperpigmentation
Oily Skin
Overall Skin Rejuvenation --- separate or following cosmetic surgery

have skin sensitivities to chemicals or make-up.
have acne-prone skin that has not responded well to other acne remedies.
are younger and whose skin is showing early signs of aging.

The complete procedure takes approximately 45 minutes. A minimal amount of redness and tingling develops, which ends within one-two hours Within two to five days, a light peeling is faintly visible and lasts about five days. If you have a history of herpes (cold sores), you should inform your technician prior to the procedure.
After Medical Microdermabrasion : -
You may experience some stinging, redness, irritation and crusting.
It is common to experience some temporary flaking or scaling, redness and dryness of the skin.
Do not touch or peel the flaking skin - add moisturizer.
Avoid frequent face washing with water because it dries the skin too much.
You may want to wait one day to apply makeup.
Do not use glycolic, Retin A, exfoliants or astringents for two days after the treatment.
Avoid extreme heat for two days (direct sun, sauna, hot tubs, Jacuzzi, tanning beds)
If drugs for herpes (cold sores) were prescribed, they should be continued until the prescription is complete.
Immediate return to normal activities.
Begin a regular program of sunscreens and sun protection. Avoid sun exposure for one month following the series of peels.
If you are prone to herpes (cold sores), ask us for a prescription for Zovirax. You will need to treat these cold sores for 24-48 hours prior to treatment and 24-48 following treatment.

Q.How many treatments will I need ?
Although fantastic results are achieved with the first session, a minimum of six treatments is recommended for long-lasting results. These treatments are usually given every two weeks. After the first six sessions, you should receive treatments once a month to maintain your youthful-looking skin.
Q.What results can one expect ?
Clients often report early benefits to their skin, depending on the area and condition treated. Many report a softer smoother younger looking skin with considerable reduction in the epidermal damage related to age, sun exposure or trauma. Stretch marks and acne scars can be slower to respond.
Q.What Are The Benefits Of Microdermabrasion Over Other Procedures ?
Recovery takes less time.
Treatment sessions take less time.
Discomfort is minimal.
Normal activities can be resumed immediately.
Q.What are potential side effects ?
Side effects are minimal and usually transient. Rarely patients may report mild discomfort, itching, redness or mild swelling for 2-7 days after the procedure. Skin flaking may occur for a few days post peel.
Q.Is Microdermabrasion safe ?
Yes. Microdermabrasion is non-invasive. The procedure only removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells to reveal the fresher, younger cells beneath. Regardless of your skin's condition, fine lines and age spots may be erased and acne scars and stretch marks will become less obvious.
