Microdermabrasion: skin regeneration treatment
Microdermabrasion is a simple way to treat damaged and dead skin cells. In doing so, it promotes skin regeneration and lets you instantly regain your radiance.
It is a gentle and safe anti-aging technique that can be adapted to all skin types and has been offered to our patients in the greater Montreal area for several years.
Microdermabrasion purpose and benefits
Microdermabrasion improves skin texture as a whole. In particular, it contributes to the tightening of dilated pores, the minimization of wrinkles and fine lines and the reduction of sebum and blackheads.
As such, sensitive areas such as the face, cleavage and neck are often preferred for this treatment. However, the treatment can be performed with the same results on virtually all parts of the body.
Microdermabrasion technique
Contrary to popular belief, this treatment is non-invasive. It propels a fine jet of crystals on the skin, which treats the layers closest to the surface. It produces micro-lesions between the epidermis and the dermis that will cause damaged cells and tissues to regenerate. This will enable the formation of a new younger, clearer and firmer skin layer.
The first skin layers, composed of the epidermis and a thin film of dead skin, protect the lower layers from environmental damage. These layers are gradually renewed over the years, albeit with decreasing efficiency. When these skin layers accumulate, it leads to the appearance of imperfections. Micro-lesions caused by microdermabrasion force cell renewal activation and, consequently, the creation of a new film.
The procedure is relatively painless and can be adapted to all skin types and schedules, to the extent that its benefits are instantaneous and allow you to immediately return to work following the session.
