5 Benefits Of Microdermabrasion

In terms of sloughing of that dead skin to reveal new, soft and fresher skin beneath, few things come close to microdermabrasion. Way less aggressive and painful that full dermabrasion, this process is quick and effective at breathing new life into older skin.

If you have seen this advertised or seen it offered at your beauty salon and wondered what the benefits of it were then wonder no more. We have done the work for you and here are 5 of the main benefits of microdermabrasion.

Non-Surgical Procedure

There is no surgery involved in microdermabrasion. In fact, it is such a gentle technique that you don’t even need a numbing cream applied to your face before the treatment begins. Tiny crystals are sprayed onto your face to get rid of that dead skin layer and you will look years younger at the end of it.  This can be viewed as a treatment you can have done in your lunch break, like having your eyebrows waxed for example.

Suitable for all skin types and colours

With microdermabrasion being so none aggressive it is a treatment that can be used on any colour or type of skin. Unlike dermabrasion it does cause scarring or changes in pigmentation to darker skins, a real boon for those looking for a beauty treatment they know won’t result in damage to the appearance of their skin. We hear many stories coming from the beauty industry about treatments which have gone awry so to find one that really is suitable for everyone is a real bonus.

Restores a youthful glow

The top layer of skin is ravaged on a daily basis by the weather, the environment and free radicals. The plump, fresh layers underneath rarely get to see the light of day and while there are many exfoliating products on the markets some can be painful to use and others completely ineffective. The gentle sloughing effect of microdermabrasion lets those layer burst forth to give you an altogether more youthful complexion. Forget those home treatments, give microdermabrasion a go and see how great the results of real exfoliation is.

Short recovery period

As this is not a surgical procedure the down time in minimal. After the treatment the only tell tales sign is a pinkish tinge, which you get from any kind of treatment lets be honest. Within 24 hours this has disappeared and you are left with a youthful complexion and haven’t had to suffer any kind of pain or have a long recovery period to attain. A real win win situation.

Reduces signs of ageing

Although microdermabrasion is not an aggressive treatment that’s not to say it is not a valuable took in the battle against ageing. Okay, it won’t remove those deep set wrinkles but it will certainly make you look younger. As well as regaining the youthful glow mentioned earlier,  microdermabrasion will minimise fine lines, improve the appearance of pores, reduce the appearance of age spots and remove dull skin completely.
