MICRODERMABRASION

Microdermabrasion provides a deeper, controlled exfoliation which results in noticeably improved skin tone: the skin looks refreshed, cleaner, softer, more supple and younger, blemishes and acne scarring are reduced and any enlarged pores looks smaller. Texture and colour of the skin looks more radiant, and fine lines are softened.

The microdermabrasion machine gently lifts the skin surface as the device “sweeps away” the dead layer of skin in a precise and controlled manner. The skin is left smoother as the crystals stimulate blood flow and clean the pores. This increased blood flow which encourages collagen formation gives the skin a more youthful appearance.

Results are noticeable after the first treatment but a course of treatment gives optimum results.
