Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal exfoliates skin without the use of chemicals or lasers. Tiny diamond chips are embedded in the tip and vacuumed across the skin to remove dry and dead skin cells. This skin rejuvenation treatment method is also known as the Parisian Peel or Diamond Peel.
The treatment improves skin elasticity and texture at the cellular level. The vacuum and medical-grade crystal controls can be tailored to individual skin type needs.
Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal is used for:
• Skin rejuvenation
• Refining skin texture and improving skin glow
• Acne treatment
• Pore Cleansing
• Minimising fine lines. It may also help with melasma and scar reduction
The face, chest, and back will benefit from microdermabrasion skin renewal treatment.
Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal treatment is suitable for most skin types. Treatments are usually scheduled four weeks apart, depending on your acne condition or pigmentation and skin’s sensitivity. This is followed by a maintenance treatment done every four to eight weeks.
Post-treatment care instructions will be advised and given to you. Take note of these:
• It is essential to moisturise and reapply sunscreen several times during the day.
• Avoid direct sunlight for a week.
• Avoid Retin-A and glycolic acids for 2-3 days after the treatment.
• Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools for a few days before and after, as chlorine dehydrates the skin, and always avoid tanning beds.
• Avoid waxing the treated areas for at least a week and sometimes up to a month, as they may be sensitive. Keep yourself hydrated.
A mild pulling sensation and a gentle sandpapery feel can be expected during treatment. Most patients experience just mild or minimum discomfort.
