What is skin polishing or microdermabrasion?
Skin polishing, also known as microdermabrasion, gently removes the uppermost layer of dead skin cells, dirt, and any acne or blemishes from the skin’s surface. This treatment consists of gentle, circular strokes from a handheld microdermabrasion device used to polish the skin. The result is smoother, refined skin with fewer wrinkles, blackheads, and scars. This process leaves your skin looking naturally younger and radiant.
Benefits of skin polishing
The benefits of skin polishing include:
- Improved skin texture
- Reduces acne and pimples
- Reduced pore size
- Evener skin tone
- Less flaking, dryness, roughness, and discoloration
- Controls excess oil production by sebaceous glands
- Improves overall complexion by removing unwanted pigmentation
How is skin polishing done?
A device is typically used by the skin care professional to gently remove the top layer of skin in the treated area. This is followed by applying a serum or moisturizer appropriate for your skin type to close the open pores and maximize the procedure’s benefits.
Chemical peels are a fractional resurfacing treatment that exfoliates the top layers of skin to reveal healthy, radiantly beautiful skin. Chemical peels treat fine lines and wrinkles, brown spots, uneven pigmentation, acne scarring, and many other skin imperfections.
Side effects of skin polishing
The most common side effects include:
- Redness: This is often temporary and fades within a few days or weeks.
- Irritation: This can be more pronounced for sensitive skin types and typically lasts from several hours to several days.
Who is a suitable candidate for skin polishing treatment?
If you have uneven skin tone, blotchy areas of hyperpigmentation, or unwanted sunspots, you will be a great candidate for a skin polishing treatment.
An experienced physician can determine whether your skin is suitable for this procedure by examining your medical history and peri-oral examination.
