Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal exfoliates skin without the use of chemicals or lasers. Tiny diamond chips, embedded in the tip, are vacuumed across skin to remove dry and dead skin cells. This skin rejuvenation treatment method is also known as the Parisian Peel or Diamond Peel.
Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal is used for:
• Skin rejuvenation
• Refine skin texture and improve skin glow
• Acne treatment or Pore Cleansing
• Minimising fine lines. May also help with melasma and scar reduction
The treatment is highly effective on the face, chest and back to rejuvenate and restore smoother, younger looking skin. It is also effective in the treatment of facial and back acne.
A single session of Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal Treatment can remove as many dead skin cells that would take three glycolic treatments to achieve. For acne prone skin, continued treatments help keep pores unclogged.
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. This capability enables Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal treatment to produce the desired results effectively.
Microdermabrasion Skin Renewal treatment is suitable for most skin types. Depending on your acne condition or pigmentation and skin’s sensitivity, treatments are usually scheduled one to four weeks apart. 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 important to moisturise and re-apply sunscreen (SPF 15 and above with 5 to 10 % zinc or titanium or 3% mexoryl) 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 skin and always avoid tanning beds.
• Avoid waxing the treated areas for at least a week and in some cases, up to a month as they may be sensitive.
Keep yourself hydrated.
