BELLADERMA II
 Microdermabrasion is the most effective, non-invasive skin resurfacing process available. Using a specially designed hand piece, a spray of crystals is directed onto the skin at a high velocity and then immediately vacuumed away, resulting in the removal of the top layer of the strateum corneum. The fresh skin just below the surface is then exposed, creating a glowing new complexion. Patients may return to normal activity immediately, unlike the more invasive chemical peels or laser procedures.
Microdermabrasion can be effective in reducing the appearance of:
- Hyperpigmentation
- Fine Lines and Winkles
- Acne Scars
- Blending Post-Laser areas
- Sun Damage
- Uneven Skin Tones
- Enlarged Pores
- Age Spots
Results will be noticeable from the first treatment. However a full treatment protocol is 5-8 treatments with one treatment every 10-14 days and maintenance visits every 2-3 months thereafter.
Advantages of Microdermabrasion over acid methods of exfoliation:
- Immediate visible results due to the vacuum action on the skin causing a edema type of swelling of the dermis which diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles (stretches the skin and makes it tighter).
- The vacuum action also increases blood flow into the dermis which increases fibroblast activity which in turn causes an increase in collagen and elastin formation over a short period of time.
- Microdermabrasion does not exhibit any of the acid burn characteristics associated with acid peels and there is no appreciable downtime.
