Discovering a New You with MicrodermabrasionWritten by Laura Smith
When you have a conversation with someone, you want them to pay attention to what you have to say. What happens too often is that your skin gets more attention than what you have to say. If your skin is showing signs of aging or if you have a few disfiguring blemishes, you may feel self-conscious and become uncomfortable when someone is close enough to see your skin imperfections. There are an abundance of treatment measures to help you get healthy skin you desire. Microdermabrasion is one way you can improve your skin. Microdermabrasion improves skin with a very simple process. A skin specialist or you (if you use a home microdermabrasion kit) take a wand filled with tiny aluminum oxide and vitamin C crystals, and using a control on wand, spread crystals across skin. This action is just abrasive enough to remove skin’s keratin layer (dead skin). The skin naturally removes this layer in about 4 weeks. With microdermabrasion dead skin is removed in a more evenly manner an in less than an hour. Depending on condition of skin, a chemical peel may also be used with microdermabrasion. When you want to improve your skin, there are many reasons to choose microdermabrasion. Most importantly, it is safe. Many skin treatments require anesthesia and have significant side effects. Microdermabrasion is so safe that you can purchase a home kit and do it yourself. The possible side effects are minor and include redness and slight swelling. You will only need to apply a light moisturizer after treatment. Microdermabrasion is for all skin types. Whether your skin is oily, sensitive, or fair, you can experience excellent results with microdermasion. Another benefit of microdermabrasion is that it won’t irritate sensitive skin.

Do you have fine lines or small acne scars that you would like to see eliminated from your face? Have you considered microdermabrasion? Microdermabrasion is a safe and effective skin treatment that involves a deep exfoliation of top layer of skin to speed up skin’s own renewal process. Many people experience great results. In early days, only way to experience microdermabrasion was to visit a salon with a professional on staff who specialized in treatment. Nowadays, a lot of people are overwhelmed and stressed and have only a limited amount of “extra” time. Finding time in a busy schedule to visit a salon may prove challenging. For those people who are in this situation or similar and want to improve condition of their skin, a home microdermabrasion kit may be answer. Another benefit of using home microdermabrasion is that it caters to a more private and schedule-free environment. You don’t have to worry about making an appointment. If you have time off from work or find yourself with no plans for weekend, you can use kit then. Also, some people are not comfortable showing their imperfections, especially if part of body that needs refining is on back or some other location that requires you to disrobe. For sensitive areas you can have a spouse or friend do treatment. After microdermabrasion, some people experience redness, swelling, tightness, and peeling in their skin. Although these symptoms are minor, if you have multiple sessions (which is generally case) you will need to apply a light moisturizer to treated area. A kit for home microdermabrasion generally contains a collection of gentle creams to prevent skin from becoming irritated. When you go to a salon, you generally have to pay extra for these products.
