Microdermabrasion

What is Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive beauty treatment that exfoliates the outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum. It uses a handheld device to mechanically remove dead skin cells, revealing smoother and fresher-looking skin.

How it Works

At Renew Skin Clinic, we use the DiamondTome microdermabrasion system. A handheld device with a small, diamond tip is used to gently exfoliate the skin. The wand creates a suction effect, which helps to lift away dead skin cells and debris from the surface of the skin. As the device is moved across the skin, it stimulates blood circulation and promotes the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness.

What it Treats

Microdermabrasion is effective in addressing various skin concerns and improving the overall texture and appearance of the skin. It can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sun damage, and acne scars. The exfoliation process promotes skin cell turnover and can also unclog pores, which can be beneficial for individuals with acne-prone skin. Additionally, microdermabrasion can enhance the penetration of skincare products as it removes the barrier of dead skin cells, allowing active ingredients to penetrate more effectively.

Microdermabrasion is suitable for most skin types and is often chosen as a gentle and non-invasive option for skin rejuvenation. However, it may not be recommended for individuals with active acne, rosacea, or certain skin conditions. It is best to consult with a skincare professional to determine if microdermabrasion is the right treatment for your specific needs.
