Medical Microdermabrasion
Coming Soon to Xavier G.
Medical Microdermabrasion is an excellent treatment and can make skin look younger, softer and more radiant. It does this by cleaning the pores and stimulating new collagen growth. Last year over 1 million treatments were performed in the USA making it one of the most popular cosmetic treatments.
The effects are immediate. Crystals are directed at the skin and removed by a vacuum process - actually quite similar to 'sand blasting'. The treatment is gradual and progressive with each session and is often combined with collagen stimulating products and skin peels.
There is generally no "downtime" after a treatment, which means that you can have the treatment in your lunch hour and return to work in the afternoon.

Your Questions Answered
|
What type of skin is microdermabrasion good for?
Good candidates for microdermabrasion are individuals with acne prone or blotchy skin, and those with small scars, fine lines, keratoses, large pores or white spots/blackheads. If you have sun damage or uneven texture and would like to improve the condition of your skin, you are also a candidate for microdermabrasion.
How long will the treatment take?
The treatments typically last 30 minutes for the face. If it includes the neck and upper chest area, it may take up to an hour. A normal course of microdermabrasion sessions varies between 4 to 8 at approximately 2-week intervals.
How long will it take until I notice a difference?
Most patients actually feel and see a difference just after 1 or 2 treatments but schedule additional treatments to increase this improvement.
