If you’re looking for a super quick solution for tired looking skin; then microdermabrasion could be the perfect facial treatment for you. It promises a renewed glow in less than one hour with almost no downtime – believe it or not, it’s been labelled the “60-minute facelift” – no wonder celebs like Jennifer Lawrence are fans.

WHAT IS A MICRODERMABRASION FACIAL?

A medical grade microdermabrasion facial is a procedure that uses a microdermabrasion device. The device uses micronized crystals (usually aluminium oxide) and other exfoliating tools to buff away dead skin that sits on the surface, which causes it to appear “dull”. The machine simultaneously vacuums away the dead skin cells making room for new cells to emerge.

WHY SHOULD I DO IT?

Just like cleansing & moisturizing are important steps in your skin care routine, exfoliation also plays a key role in maintaining revealing fresh and healthy skin. Microdermabrasion falls under the exfoliation umbrella because it gently but actively removes dead skin cells to renew tone and texture, diminish pore size, and minimise fine lines—to name a few benefits of this highly talked about treatment. It can also improve the appearance of sun damage, acne scarring and melasma.

THE BEAUTY?

Whilst it is a relatively quick procedure, the results of this treatment grow stronger over several weeks and can be refreshed with regular maintenance. You will notice positive changes in your skin immediately after your first therapy session. This rejuvenated effect will develop and become more pronounced during the first 24 hours following your treatment as your skin calms and your renewed skin becomes more visible.

Over the next few weeks, you will notice that your skin tone and texture changes for the better.This is of course attributed to your treatment where skin cells were triggered to produce larger amounts of collagen, which is the protein powerhouse in charge of creating plumper, more elastic skin.
