MICRODERMABRASION FACIAL

​

Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic technique that uses a mechanical medium for exfoliation to remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells from the epidermis.

​

HOW DOES IT WORK?

​

Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical way to freshen and rejuvenate your skin. PureSkin uses a diamond-tipped wand to slough off the top layer (epidermis) of your skin and stimulates new skin growth. This technique also helps to thicken your collagen, which results in a younger looking complexion. Collagen is a protein in your skin that makes skin appear taut and smooth. Collagen production declines as we age, resulting in looser, uneven skin.

​

WHAT ARE THE PROCEDURES?

 

Each treatment will last about a half-hour to an hour. You may feel a mild scratching as the procedure removes the superficial skin cells. Additionally, you’ll notice a vibrating sensation akin to a massage. There is also a suction mechanism to lift off the dead skin. PureSkin uses the ‘New’ diamond-tip wand that is gently moved across your skin to exfoliate.
