What Microdermabrasion Can Do for You
Acne scars, fine wrinkles and sunspots are all skin conditions that can happen to anyone. Fortunately there are remedies. Microdermabrasion treatments have a proven track record at alleviating these skin conditions.
How Does Microdermabrasion Work?
Microdermabrasion consists of a light abrasion that will partially or completely remove the dead outermost surface of the skin, the stratum corneum. It is performed at day spas, doctors' offices, and can even take place in the privacy of your own home
The Three Different Applications of Microdermabrasion
Crystal Microdermabrasion
Crystal Microdermabrasion systems are the traditional treatment of choice. This procedure involves using a special, hand-held device that blasts a high speed flow of aluminum oxide microcrystals onto the surface of the skin. The exfoliation process occurs from these microcrystals. At the same time another part of the device is vacuuming dead skin cells, dirt and used crystals. There are two advantages here. The microcrystals have an irregular shape that makes them very effective abraders and their component of aluminum oxide is the second hardest mineral after diamonds.
Diamond Microdermabrasion
Diamond microdermabrasion uses a disposable or diamond tipped wand to abrade the outermost layer of the skin. The advantage for this method is it takes out the possibility of free flying crystals inadvertently hitting and damaging sensitive areas of the face. The tipped wand has a better rate of precision because it is made in different shapes and sizes. The negative is that both these procedures require that the patient attends a medical clinic or day spa for at least 6 to 12 sessions. These are hour long sessions costing hundreds of dollars. Thankfully there is a cheaper and more time effective skin microdermabrasion cream.
At Home Microdermabrasion
Skin resurfacing products have a new development in that now exists a microdermabrasion cream that can be used from home. It is easy to apply and it produces long lasting results, in particular if the cream is made of all natural ingredients. A microdermabrasion cream abrades the surface of the skin using tiny particles to leave a 'polished' look to your face after its application. After repeated use a discolored or scarred skin surface is gradually removed. The microdermabrasion results are twofold. The surface skin cell turnover is enhanced and it causes the self replenishment of collagen and elastin to replace the older and drier layer of the skin.
BIOSKINEXFOL is a microdermabrasion skin cream that has natural biological skin renewal activators that stimulate new skin cells that replace the old and damaged. Its special ingredient is snail serum (Helix Aspersa Muller). Its properties and molecular structures that are very similar to human skin allow its regenerating effects to be replicated on us. It is BIOSKINEXFOL that works so well as a microdermabrasion cream because it can scrub away the top layered skin surface as well as regenerate healthy skin cells. It thereby makes the complete and effective skin care treatment one should give a try.
