Are you looking for a non-surgical way to freshen and rejuvenate the skin on your face? Microdermabrasion treatments make use of a minimally abrasive instrument to gently sand the skin, removing the thicker, uneven outer layer of dead skin cells. This skin rejuvenation procedure is used to freshen up the skin and treats light scarring, discoloration and sun damage. Imagine a very fine sand blaster and you’ll get a picture of how microdermabrasion works. It uses microparticles, or a diamond-tipped wand, to slough off the top layer (stratum corneum) of your skin above the epidermis and stimulate new skin growth, which results in a more youthful looking complexion. Our Aesthetician may suggest you combine microdermabrasion with a laser facial procedure or a product such as NeoCutis Perle’ formulated with hydroquinone-free MELAPLEX® to help reduce the appearance of skin discolorations and visibly brighten skin tone or Neocutis’ Blanche’ a skin lightening cream with hydroquinone and MELAPLEX® technology helps to visibly lighten skin discoloration in as little as 4 weeks for more improved results.
