Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure. Microdermabrasion is an amazing technique to resurface the skin by removing the thicker, uneven outer layer of skin and promoting the growth of new, healthy cells. It improves your skin’s appearance by minimizing pores, fine lines, acne scars, age spots, and sun damage.
The skin’s repair process results in a thicker epidermis with a softer appearance of wrinkles. Microdermabrasion reduces fine lines, wrinkles, improved skin tone and texture, and softer, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. This procedure improves the appearance of uneven skin tone, acne scars, traumatic scars, and stretch marks. At the Golden Pulse Laser Clinic, we offer high-quality Microdermabrasion in Vaughan provided by highly skilled and trained technicians with years of experience.
What does microdermabrasion do for your face?
Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure to improve the appearance of skin. Microdermabrasion uses an abrasive instrument to gently exfoliate dead, thicker layers of skin to speed up facial rejuvenation while treating light scarring, discoloration and sun damage.
How long will microdermabrasion last?
Microdermabrasion treatments typically produce long-term benefits that last three to five weeks, although most people should repeat them every month; the length of time may depend on factors like your age, skin type and level of post-treatment care.
Which treatment is better chemical peel or microdermabrasion?
Chemical peel treatments are often the preferred choice for clients suffering from active acne, since microdermabrasion on sensitive skin may irritate or even lead to other issues. Chemical peels use acidic solutions rather than physical abrasion methods for skin treatments; microdermabrasion treatments might be better suited for skins that show light wrinkles, sun damage or have thick layers of dead cells that require removal.
Which is better microdermabrasion or Microneedling?
Microneedling is a procedure to puncture the skin with small needles to stimulate collagen production. Automated micrneedling is an innovation in the skincare industry for the treatment of the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and the improvement of the skin’s texture, tone, and color.
After microneedling treatment, the skin repair process results in a thicker epidermis with a softer appearance of wrinkles. Microneedles create micro-channels that allow topical gels, creams, and serums to be absorbed more effectively, enhancing the effects in deeper layers of the skin. Reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, improved skin tone and texture, and softer, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. This procedure improves the appearance of uneven skin tone, acne scars, traumatic scars, and stretch marks.Â
Although, microdermabrasion and microneedling can be used for similar skin conditions they work with different techniques to treat the skin. Microneedling is generally more effective on deeper skin imperfections where microdermabrasion works at the top layer of skin.Â
