There is a method for rejuvenation of the skin that is gaining acceptance in recent years called microdermabrasion. It is an economical solution that is noninvasive and does not cause pain for the recipient. It has also been an attractive alternative for those not quite ready for facial injections, laser procedures or cosmetic surgeries.
There is a lot that microdermabrasion can do, including lessening the appearance of age spots (hyperpigmentation), reduce scars, even out rough skin, make pores smaller, and lessen wrinkles and lines on the face. The procedure actually makes it easier for your skin care products to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and help build collagen which gives skin its youthful appearance.
This procedure uses specialized equipment to exfoliate the skin. This will result in the removal of dead skin cells that have accumulated on the top layer of the skin.
A compressor is used to suck air through a wand that is hand-held, as part of the crystal microdermabrasion equipment. A vacuum is produced as the wand makes contact with a patient's skin. While the directed aluminum oxide crystals move over the skin, dead skin cells are dislodged during the process. A separate tube on the wand simply sucks the air along with the dead skin cells and crystals into the machine.
Microdermabrasion is also done using a diamond-tip, no crystals are involved with this method, but vacuum technology is still applied. Similarly, a vacuum is used but this time, the diamond tip does the work of dislodging the dead skin cells. Different kinds of tips are selected based on the type of skin the patient has, and how uneven the texture is. Crystal microdermabrasion is a little more comfortable that diamond-tip, but they have the same result for the patient. For a patient with sensitive skin, it makes more sense.
Microdermabrasion can achieve dramatic results, but it is highly dependent on the skill of the technician. For the best results, it is often recommended to get a series of treatments depending upon your skin type and condition. After the first treatment is completed, a clearer picture of the overall treatment process will be planned out, and implemented, depending on skin condition among other factors. Patients in many cases are delighted after they see the effects that the first session brings, but for a comprehensive treatment for all skin concerns, more visits are usually necessary. It is generally advised to follow up with regular maintenance treatments every 3-4 months. An expert treatment provider will know how to set up the equipment in the proper way, according to the skin type, so that patients with overly sensitive skin can also take advantage of this technique.
Although microdermabrasion is an extremely popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment, it is not completely free from side effects. Some skin trauma does occur at times since it blasts crystals at the skin at a high rate of speed, this does have a reaction but it's not long lasting. Skin sensitivity sometimes occurs, along with minimal bruising and skin can be slightly red and tight feeling. This is normal and will only last several hours. Mild abrasions sometimes occur, and at times even a bit of bleeding. Risks are very small from microdermabrasion, the materials used are not harmful at all, and there is practically no risk that is associated with these procedures. When compared to facial peels that use lasers or chemical agents it is much safer.
