Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive process used to remake  overall skin tone and texture. It can enhance the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, acne scarring, and other skin-related problems and conditions.

The process uses a special applicator with an abrasive top to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it.

A different microdermabrasion method sprays fine particles of aluminum oxide or sodium bicarbonate with a vacuum/suction to achieve the same result as the abrasive surface.

Microdermabrasion is known a safe process for most skin types and colors. People might choose to get the process if they have the following skin concerns:

• fine lines or wrinkles
• hyperpigmentation, age spots, red spots and brown spots
• enlarged pores, blackheads
• acne or acne scars
• stretch mark
• dull-looking complexion
• uneven skin tone or multi-colored texture
• sun damage

Microdermabrasion is an in-office process that generally takes about one hour. It’s usually performed by a licensed skincare professional, who may or may not be under the supervision of a healthcare giver. This varies on what state you live in.

It’s not important to use anesthesia or a numbing chemical for microdermabrasion.

During your procedure, you’ll be seated in a reclining chair. Your aesthetician will use a handheld device to gently spray on the particles or sand away the upper layer of skin in the targeted areas. At the end of the process, a moisturizer as well as sunscreen will be put on your skin.

Microdermabrasion vs. Dermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a bit less invasive than dermabrasion.

Dermabrasion uses more intense techniques to eliminate the top layer of skin. A dermatologist may recommend dermabrasion for acne scars, incisions or surgery, or to remove tattoos.

Dermabrasion is only recommended for people with fair skin. Microdermabrasion can be done for people with any skin color.

Diamond-tip Handpiece

Generally, a diamond-tip handpiece is to procure gentle exfoliation of dead skin cells out of your skin as it works to suction them off immediately. It is determined by the pressure applied on the handpiece to figure out the depth of abrasion that is allowed on your skin. For the areas that are relatively sensitive on your face such as close to the eyes that is where this type of microdermabrasion applicator works best.

Crystal Microdermabrasion

When you use a crystal-emitting handpiece for gentle spraying of fine crystals on your skin on order to rub away dirt our of your skin, then it is known as crystal microdermabrasion. Same as diamond-tip handpiece, it is also used to suction off dead skin cells from your skin.

Hydradermabrasion

A relatively newer method of  crystal free exfoliation and dermal infusion of products in the market is called Hydradermabrasion. The whole method of this involves stimulation of collagen production which maximizes the blood flow in your skin and produces a more natural glow.

Conclusion

Whatever the treatment may be, just make sure to take care of your skin after getting it cleansed with the use of skin care products and sunscreens while going out in the sun. That is the only way to ensure regrowth and development of new and fresh skin cells that can make your skin appear more healthy and young with time. Never fail to take extra care of your skin while you can because all it takes for it to shine is to ensure daily dose of cleansing and revitalization.
