Microdermabrasion – Facials and Skin Polishing

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive procedure that uses tiny crystals or other exfoliating surfaces to help remove the superficial layer of dead skin cells.

When the top layer of skin is removed, the body interprets it as an injury. It then quickly replaces the lost skin cells with new, healthy ones.

Microdermabrasion treatment can also be used to reduce the appearance of fine lines, superficial blemishes and marks, improve congested skin, mild pigmentation problems and generally become part of an anti-ageing treatment routine.

What Happens During Microdermabrasion Treatment?

First, a moisturizing lotion will be applied to the face to soften up the upper layers of skin. Then the microdermabrasion unit is run in smooth, firm strokes over the face to slough off dead skin and impurities. Though it may feel rough against the skin, it’s not painful.

Microdermabrasion is a less invasive and non-surgical procedure. You need to prepare very little for this. Firstly, you should discuss all your skin problems with the skin care professional. You will be told not to use tanning creams and should not get waxing done before one week. Also, avoid getting exposed to the sun.

The doctor will sand down the external layer of your skin or gently spray to smoothen the skin with a device in the targeted areas. In the end, a sunscreen or a moisturizer is applied to your skin.

What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure designed to gently exfoliate the skin’s surface. By removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, it reveals fresher, smoother, and more radiant skin underneath. This treatment is ideal for reducing fine lines, age spots, mild acne scars, and other imperfections, leaving your complexion healthier and more youthful.

Procedure of Microdermabrasion Treatment

During microdermabrasion, a handheld device is used to gently exfoliate the skin’s outer layer, removing dead cells and impurities. The procedure usually begins with a thorough cleansing of the face, followed by the application of fine crystals or a diamond-tipped wand over the skin. As these exfoliate, the device simultaneously vacuums away the debris, revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath. The entire process is quick, generally lasting 20-30 minutes, and requires no downtime. After treatment at Dermiq, you may notice a slight pinkness, but this fades quickly, leaving your complexion noticeably more radiant and refreshed.

Types of Microdermabrasion Treatment

Crystal Microdermabrasion: This traditional technique uses fine crystals to exfoliate the skin. The crystals are then vacuumed away along with dead skin cells, revealing a refreshed complexion.

Diamond-Tip Microdermabrasion: Instead of crystals, this method uses a diamond-tipped wand for more precise exfoliation. It’s effective for targeting sensitive areas like the under-eye region.

Hydradermabrasion: This newer approach combines exfoliation with skin hydration. A water-based solution is infused into the skin during the procedure, leaving it not only smoother but also well-hydrated and nourished.

Not only does undergoing a microdermabrasion facial mean not having any artificial or even natural substances injected, but it also works in harmony with the body. Once the treatment has removed dead and tired cells, the body will work to replace them with fresh, healthier looking skin.

A minimum of 5-10 sessions is required with a gap of 10 to 14 days.
