People, no matter their age, sex or background are conscious of their looks and would love to keep their youthful appearance for as long as possible. Microdermabrasion achieves the effects of laser treatment, surgical procedures, and chemical peels but with minimal invasiveness. The treatment is painless and restores the skins natural glow. It is suitable for administering on face, neck, chest, back arms, and legs giving an even youthful glow!
The procedure of microdermabrasion was first used in Italy in 1985. This popular technique finds favor as the tools can be used at home using hand held machines. It’s a buffing technique where a tool much like a sandblaster is administered to the outer layer of the skin. The microdermabrasion procedure has evolved over time from using various stones and shells to crystals, particle-free diamond tips, and particle-free bristle tips etc. The applicator tool sprays and circulates this material onto the skin. Microdermabrasion removes the older upper layer skin cells, which are replaced by newer cells and collagen formation. Obvious visible flaws like damage and mottling caused by sun exposure, blemishes and fine lines are eliminated. It also effectively clears out blocked pores on the skin surface. As microdermabrasion sloughs away the upper layers of skin, it allows for the penetration of active ingredients of creams and ointments enabling them to reach the lower dermal layers and act faster. On the down side, the procedure temporarily removes some skin moisture that has to be replenished by applying moisturizers. Some mild redness may arise along with slight swelling, but these effects usually subside shortly.
Men and women in the south U.S. are more exposed to the heat and sun and the skin tends to get damaged easily. Application of sunscreens and sunblocks are not really effective over a longer span of time. Skin looks mottled, discolored and tans easily. Climate and weather conditions make the skin look aged. Microdermabrasion is extremely effective treating skin for photo damage and hyper pigmentation. It can diminish fine lines, wrinkles, and shallow acne scars. For best results always consult a trained skin care professional to get the best exfoliation effects. Southern states like Florida have good technicians but it is best to check on their credentials to make sure you select the right person and the right treatment for your complaint, to determine what would suit you: laser treatment or microdermabrasion. Clearwater FL has a number of professionals experienced to do a good job.
