Microdermabrasion - Look Fresh And Fair Instantly
By Lianne Larsson, Editor AcneTreatmentAid.com

Your skin is the most important part of your body that makes you look fresh and fair. Although initially skin protects you from the sun, heat and cold, but eventually the harmful effects of the environment starts reacting and your skin suffers. At this time, if you can remove the outermost layer of dried, dead skin cells, then you will discover a fresher and younger looking face, from beneath the layer of dead cells. This freshness is exactly what microdermabrasion treatments wonders do to your face.

Microdermabrasion is an essential skin-freshening technique that helps to repair the facial skin formed by effects of sun, rain and aging. The treatments stimulate the production of skin cells and collagen that actually helps reducing fine lines, “crow’s feet”, acne scars, unwanted pigmentation and psoriasis spots.

This treatment is conducted by a plastic surgeon using a small instrument called sandblaster is used to distribute tiny crystal all across the face. The hand piece results in gentle abrasion or “polishing process” with suctions to remove the epidermis skin from the face. Each of the treatments takes at least 30 minutes to an hour. The number of treatments recommended for maximal results can range from 5 to 12, spaced between 2 to 3 weeks. Microdermabrasion can often be combined with a light chemical peel to increase the effect.

The treatments are performed in a unique way. Before the plastic surgeon begins with the procedures, you will have to go for a meeting. You should give the doctor the details of the changes you want on your face. Your doctor will begin by taking the complete history of your medical state. You should stop taking products that contain aspirin or other medications. You should also stop smoking to improve blood circulation and start taking anti-viral medications to prevent cold sores and fever blisters.

The procedure of microdermabrasion is quite easy and simple. You will have to wear goggles to prevent your eyes, especially whilst your skin is getting cleansed. The doctor then removes the surface skin and places the tiny crystals. The doctor can vary the pressure to control the amount of penetration or cleanse an area several times to remove the damaged skin.

After the procedure is over, you will feel relaxed when a cool towel wrap will be placed over the areas affected. A Copper peptide lotion will be massaged all over your face to stimulate collagen production. Finally, rubbing your face with a sunscreen lotion will enhance the fresh look on your face.

Microdermabrasion basically uses Corundum crystals to completely exfoliate the dead skin layers, smoothen the skin texture to make it look glowing and soft. If you are thinking that the procedure is hurting, then you are completely mistaken. It is not at all painful but you will feel a slight irritation around your eye area. However, your skin may simply appear a darker pink and feel a deeper hot on the first day after the treatment.

Microdermabrasion is best for those candidates who are prone to acne, blotchy skin, rhytides, keratoses, milia, large pores, or sebaceous hyperplasia. You can also opt for microdermabrasion if you have excessive sun damage or uneven texture and would like to improve your skin to become fresh and healthy. Microdermabrasion is not suitable for those who are suffering from undiagnosed lesions, warts, weeping acne, keloids, and recent herpes outbreaks, active rosacea, unstable diabetes and autoimmune systems disorder.

Microdermabrasion stimulates the production of layers of skin so it improves the skin’s appearances. Following are the benefits of microdermabrasion on skin:

• Imparts your skin a fresh and healthy look
• Effective on all skin types and colors
• No anesthesia required
• Non-surgical, safe and effective procedure
• Appropriate for skin that remains sensitive to chemical procedures
• No side effects, so you can begin with your normal activities immediately

Right after the Microdermabrasion procedure is over, you can go for after-treatments. After the treatment some redness and sunburn are expected, so applying a high quality moisturizer will keep the skin re-hydrated anytime. You should avoid alpha-hydroxyl acid, glycolic acid products and skin exfoliation scrubs for at least next 72 hours. However, although you should avoid full-face make-up, applying eye make-up and lipstick will not act as deterrent.

Microdermabrasion truly makes your skin breathe better and therefore look fresh and healthy.
