Microdermabrasion is a popular, non-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure to treat a variety of skin issues.
During treatment, a clinician gently passes a microdermabrasion wand over the surface of the patient’s skin. The crystals on the wand gently scrape away dead skin cells, debris, and other impurities from the surface of the skin. As the uppermost layers of the skin are removed, healthier tissue underneath is revealed. This controlled damage to the skin also stimulates the creation of structural proteins like collagen and elastin. These proteins gradually make the skin stronger, tighter, and more youthful-looking over time.
