Microdermabrasion is the process of peeling off the topmost layer of the skin with tiny rough grains.  This is a technique that has been proven to be effective in getting rid of stretch marks. In recent times, this technique has extended to treat all sorts of skin conditions that the average layman would not believe the amount of skin conditions it can be used to treat!

 

To give you some idea, microdermabrasion can also be used to remove crow’s feet or what is also known as the skin’s fine lines.  Age spots and acne scars can also be removed by microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion is also great at cleaning clogged pores in skin conditions like acne.

Here are some other conditions that microdermabrasion can be used according to Discover Health:

• Eczema
• Dermatitis
• Psoriasis
• Lupus
• Warts
• Herpetic lesions
• Ongoing or active rosacea
• Fragile capillaries

N.B For those who have sensitivity to anti-acne drugs, microdermabrasion is not suitable.

 

How A Typical Microdermabrasion System Works

Whether or not you decide to buy it, this section gives you an idea on what to expect if you do decide to use microdermabrasion at home or outside.

We will explain this section using the standard Neutrogena Microdermabrasion System.

1. This system uses a combination of tiny vibrations and exfoliating crystals that has been proven to deliver very similar results that you can obtain from a dermatologist performing microdermabrasion.
2. This system claims that results can be seen in only one use. While we believe that this system works very well, not everyone should EXPECT it to give results in one go.
3. If you do see results, you will start noticing more radiant looking skin. You will also have firmer skin that is not only smoother but also younger looking.
4. The exfoliating crystals help exfoliate your skin very gently by removing the top skin layer; the stratum corneum. The body interprets this as an “injury” and fixes it.
5. The Neutrogena Microdermabrasion system also uses ultra fine crystals and mild purifiers to help provide a very gentle exfoliation to give better results. Immediately, after one session of microdermabrasion, you will begin to notice softer and more luminous looking skin.
6. On the next day, you will begin to see younger looking skin that is firm and youthful.

For Best Results, you must do the following:

• Use the Neutrogena microdermabrasion system three times a week.

Expect results within a day of use. A week of use will give you noticeable difference in fine lines. After 8 weeks of use, you will begin to have much firmer looking skin.

3. Microdermabrasion can be applied to all skin types.  Some medical procedure cannot accommodate certain skin types. Microdermabrasion is good in that all types of skin, can be applied with microdermabrasion regardless of the stretch mark’s complexity, skin color, and skin texture.  However, there is high probability that people with fair skin can achieve the best results.
4. Surgery is not used in microdermabrasion.  Unlike other surgical procedures that can cause you stress and make you worry, microdermabrasion is a very safe and effective way of removing stretch marks.  You can even undergo it during your break time.

A set of different factors affect the cost of microdermabrasion.  These include place of treatment, the age or complexity of the stretch marks, the city or county you are getting it done, and the body part where you can use it.
