Microdermabrasion gives hope to people who have tried all popular over-the-counter treatments to improve condition of their skin. Potent acids provide power behind microdebrasion. The acids are spread across area needing treatment with a stream of pressure just strong enough to remove top layer of skin that contains dead skin cells. One of benefits of using microdermabrasion is its simplicity. Instead of heavy-duty equipment often used to perform other procedures with similar results, microdermabrasion equipment consists of only a few items that work together to rejuvenate and refresh skin.
The essential elements of microdermabrasion equipment include acid crystals that are responsible for actual removal of dead skin, a hand-held device that holds crystals, and a collection tank that holds vacuumed dead skin. The pressure that is used to spray crystals on treatment area may seem to be extreme. However, individual guiding hand-held device is in complete control of process. During process individual determines amount of pressure to administer.
Microdermabrasion equipment included in a home microdermabrasion kit is similar to equipment used in a salon except that specialist in salon is able to use more pressure and a higher concentration of acids. Since equipment used influences results, microdermabrasion equipment in a salon is far more superior and capable of producing more long-term effects than its home counterpart. However, a home microdermabrasion equipment is suitable for minor skin conditions such as fine lines, dull skin, and mild acne. In addition, equipment included with a home system is much easier to maintain and costs a lot less.
