Have you noticed that your skin is a little rough lately? Or perhaps it has an uneven tone? You may have thought about going to a medical spa for microdermabrasion or a chemical peel, but it can be hard to decide which option is right for you. The solution is Microderm Plus, which combines the effects of both a peel and microdermabrasion for beautiful, healthy skin!
A Quick Look at Microderm Plus
Microderm Plus is a powerful method for exfoliating your skin. It gently removes the top layer of skin, including dead skin cells, to reveal the newer, younger-looking skin underneath. In other words, Microderm Plus transforms dull, tired-looking skin into rejuvenated, youthful skin. This exfoliation method can even reduce the size of your pores! In addition, the Microderm Plus treatment is safe and effective for all skin types, including darker skin.
Your Microderm Plus Consultation
When you meet with a skin care provider, you can expect to discuss your goals for your skin. Be prepared to identify what specific concerns you have, such as rough skin texture, uneven tone, or areas of hyperpigmentation. This is helpful for ensuring that the Microderm Plus treatment will be effective for you. The provider will also need to know about your medical history. Most people are excellent candidates for Microderm Plus. However, those who have used Accutane within the past 12 months will need to wait awhile to schedule the treatment. In addition, you should not have an active herpes infection, open wound, or skin infection in the treatment area.
Your Treatment
The Microderm Plus treatment is a four-step process. It begins with dermaplaning, which removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. Then, a professional-grade microdermabrasion tool is used to gently remove the top layer of skin. Next, the provider will apply a mild chemical peel to further exfoliate the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines, scars, and hyperpigmentation. Lastly, the provider applies cryogenic therapy designed to soothe the skin.
