A microdermabrasion is a painless treatment that requires little special care. From the first sessions, we appreciate the benefits. This treatment is primarily intended to remove dead cells giving the skin a smooth and healthy appearance.
Preparation and treatment
Before receiving the treatment, the skin has to be cleaned thoroughly. During the session, two passes are made. Particular attention is made to where the spots, scars, large pores or fine lines are apparent. The treatment is completed by applying a soothing mask and active ingredients appropriate for the skin type of the client.
What to expect
Already after the first treatment, the skin is softer, smoother, more uniform and visibly exfoliated. The skin becomes better irrigated, and, with repeated sessions, the age spots, fine lines and mild acne scars fade, the skin pores are tightened and the skin retrieves its natural glow.
Complementary care
Its exfoliating action makes a complementary care to peels, allowing to maximize the results.
Conclusion
The diamond-tipped microdermabrasion helps the skin to regenerate faster and to breathe more easily.
