MICRODERMABRASION
THE MODERN METHOD
OF SIGN RESURFACING
Microdermabrasion
has been available in Europe for more than 10 years but has only been
cleared by the FDA for use in the United States since 1996. Microdermabrasion
machines all operate on the same basic principle. A closed loop vacuum
that sprays corundum crystals on to the skin and vacuums up the contaminated
crystals and exfoliated skin. The spray of crystals removes skin layers
and induces collagen production while the vacuum increases cell turnover
and provides lymphatic drainage. The procedure leaves the skin with a
rosy glow, not red and traumatized.
Microdermabrasion
treats many skin problems progressively (in a series of treatments) rather
than aggressively as with TCA peels and Laser resurfacing after which
the patient will want to hide for anywhere from 1 week to months. Clients
may resume normal activity immediately after a Microdermabrasion treatment.
Sunscreen is a must after treatment as the newly exposed cells are more
susceptible to sunburn. The cost is a fraction of the cost of laser or
TCA peels. Remember the key is progressive treatment with no visible trauma
to the skin.
Microdermabrasion
has successfully treated fine lines and wrinkles, non-inflammatory acne
scars, mild acne, blackheads, whiteheads, raised scars, hyper-pigmentation
(dark spots), large pores, and stretch marks. The procedure also increases
firmness of the skin by increasing coRagen production and reduction of
acne causing oils. Microdermabrasion can be used on ethnic skin whereas
some chemicals and lasers can not.
A
series of 1-6 treatments may eliminate smaller problems while deeper problems
such as hyper-pigmentation and scars may take 15 to 36 treatments, but
the key is progressive treatment with no down time while improving your
skins overall beauty and health. One treatment of the face and neck usually
takes 30 minutes. Other areas may be treated as well, face, neck, chest,
back, arms, hands, breasts, and spot treatments for scars and stretch
marks. Microdermabrasion should not be performed on areas of active herpes
outbreak, inflammatory acne, undiagnosed lesions, or persons with unstable
diabetes. Your treatment will be delivered by a certified technician who
is knowledgeable in all aspects of the treatment and the skin.

Frequently
Asked Questions
Why
are there two different tones of bareMinerals foundation?
We've
included two tones to ensure you get a perfect match for
your complexion. Some skin tones change from winter to
summer, and some women like to blend their bareMinerals
for different looks. You;ll find that the minerals are
very forgiving and the two tones will give you more options.
How
do I blend two shades together?
There is no science to this technique. Just dip your brush
into a small amount of the first color then dip it into
the lid of the second color. Swirl, tap and buff. The
swirling action will distribute the colors together beautifully.
Remember, as long as you choose the right shade family,
the shades are extremely forgiving.
