A: You must stop using Retinol products for 14 days before microderm treatment because Retinol makes the skin more sensitive and the combined effect can cause irritations and scarring. This applies to do-it-yourself system and salon treatment.
A: The face is the most common treated area. If you choose professional macrodermabrasion. the specialist who performs it will adjust the settings of the machine for facial micro dermabration. If you decide to do the procedure on your own, be sure to search for a specially designed face microdermabrasian tool.
A: Microdemabrasion cream is effective on fine lines. It evens out skin texture through abrasion of the top layer of skin. The effect is a reduction or even total removal of fine lines.
A: Yes, some of the at-home microbrasion kits available on the market can make you break out. Professional micro dermabrasion should not cause any acne breakouts but if it does, you should notify your doctor.
A: This procedure exfoliates the top layer of skin which consists of dead skin cells. Microdermabarasion kit stimulates collagen production, essential to healthy skin and also removes blotchy skin texture and tone.
A: Uneven skin tone is the result of a skin disorder called hyperpigmentation. It can be evened out through several sessions of microdermibration. The micro-crystal flow abrades the top layer of the skin where unevenly pigmented skin cells are stuck.
A: Yes, you can, but the results you get after just one session are not that impressive. Best results are obtained after 6 to 12 professional sessions (depending on your expectations and severity of your skin imperfections), respectively one month of use for one of the over the counter microabrasions products.
A: By removing the top layer of skin, micro abrasion pulverizes away the dead skin layer (the outermost layer) in order to even out skin texture and reduce superficial surgical scars. More severe surgical scarring requires more invasive non-surgical techniques, like deep chemical peels or laser facial resurface.
A: Age spots can be made less visible or even removed entirely through several micro derm abrasion sessions - the flow of crystals exfoliates the top layer of the skin and evens out skin tone.
A: Since you cannot use a professional microdermal abrasion machine on your own without professional training, the only way to perform this procedure on your own is to use an at-home commercial kit. These kits contain cloths, sponges, rotating applicators, crystal creams, pre- and post-care formulas. All you have to do is follow the instructions that come with the product.
