Microdermabrasion
Facial Treatments
Research demonstrates that microdermabrasion
treatments are an effective exfoliant treatment in promoting the
rejuvenation of aging skin.
Microdermabrasion works to stimulate
cell renewal, improve overall skin
tone,
diminish fine lines, smooth the skin and reduce the appearance
of hyperpigmentation.
Professionally performed microdermabrasion facial
treatments rely on a machine.
These machines utilize a mini-sand
blasting technique to scour away the outermost layer of old skin cells,
then vacuums up the residue.
Out with the old, in with the new!
There are a few different options when
considering integrating home microdermabrasion facial treatments into
your anti-aging skin care regimen.
A microdermabrasion scrub is an
effective option which utilizes tiny abrasive material to remove the
outermost layer of dead skin cells that collect on the surface of the
skin.
Removing old skin cells encourages the
growth of new cells,
revitalizing the skin.
Another option is utilizing one of the home spa
devises for microdermabrasion which essentially accomplishes the same
goal of stimulating skin renewal. Refer to the e-Learning module on Spa
gadgets to explore this option further:
Please note that sensitive skin types should be a bit wary of including
home microdermabrasion treatments as they may prove to be an irritant
to
the skin. Simply start with a less abrasive scrub
then
gradually and very lightly rub it into the skin increasing the pressure
once your skin becomes accustomed to the treatment.
To some people, even the mildest home microdermabrasion
treatment can feel like washing your face with a very fine piece of
sand paper.
Exfoliation is a very successful strategy in any
facial
rejuvenation regime.
Exfoliation does wonders
to improve your overall
complexion, but be careful not to go overboard and over do
it because
you could actually do more damage than good.
More is definitely not
better when incorporating exfoliation into your overall skin care
routine, once a day is just fine.
It is also helpful to give your skin
an occasional respite from exfoliation for a day or two every month or
so, especially if any irritation begins to develop.
The rejuvenating attributes of all active anti-aging skin care
ingredients are summarized in the Fact Sheet on Anti-Aging Ingredients.
