This treatment is like sandblasting the skin. Fine mineral crystals are jet sprayed across the skin, then the debris is vacuumed off. The treatments are normally done in a dermatologist's office or esthetician's salon and cost somewhere around $200 each. Multiple treatments, continuing over time, are required to maintain the effects of the treatments.
Before we tell you about the new home treatment, let's take a look at how microdermabrasion works. Most of the systems that are being used have a simple vacuum chamber that propels the mineral crystals through a specially designed wand that simultaneously lifts the skin into the line of fire of the rapidly moving crystals and exfoliates, or "sands off" superficial skin cells.
Treated skin is smooth, polished, buffed and toned. There is some thickening of the inner skin layer (dermis), and even a mild increase in collagen fibers as the outer skin layer (epidermis) becomes quite thin. This leads to a thickening of the dermal layer.
Why would we want to do this? Here are a few reasons:
1. Microdermabraded skin looks healthier because the epidermis, which reflects light, is gone, leaving the skin with a youthful "pink glow." 2. With dermal thickening, fine lines are diminished and the skin tightens. 3. Skin tone and color evens as abnormal areas of pigmentation are removed. Makeup slides on easier and skin appears and feels smooth and soft. What happens when you discontinue the treatments? Your skin simply returns to its native state of thick epidermis, dull color and rough appearance.
Introducing a new home treatment!
GreatSkin® is introducing an inexpensive microdermabrasion program that can be performed very easily at home! Called Microbrasion, the GreatSkin system employs custom-designed hollow crystals that absorb epidermal cells as they abrade the rough, thickened dead epidermal layer.
The incredible new product, called Microbrasion Cream, can result in smooth supple skin without having to go to the salon for microdermabrasion. The women in our office who have tried it, are raving about it. There is no discomfort with the treatment and by the next morning, your skin will be beautiful!
Keep in mind that salon treatments are usually around $200 each and have to be repeated on a regular basis.
