Microdermabrasion Acne Information
Microdermabrasion is a common technique for the treatment of acne. Microdermabrasion is the use of tiny crystals (sodium bicarbonate or aluminum bicarbonate) to peel off layers of skin cells. The amount of pressure and crystals that are used determines the amount of skin that is pulled off. Microdermabrasion will also stimulate production of collagen and elastin, thus decreasing the effects of aging on your skin as well. In recent times, this treatment procedure is taking priority among the acne sufferers.
Microdermabrasion Acne benefits
While everyone can benefit from microdermabrasion treatments since it can make a significant difference for people with certain skin problems. With this method, we can lessen or remove the following conditions:
- Treat the delicate skin under the eyes where solar keratosis appear (large blackheads around the outer ring of the eye socket)
- fine lines and wrinkles
- uneven pigmentation
- sun damage
- Resolve macules (marks where spots have healed and a coloured mark is left)
- Smooth acne scarring
- Help dull and congested skin with open follicles and commedones
Procedure for microdermabrasion
A microdermabrasion treatment takes about 30 minutes if the face is being treated, to an hour if the neck and upper chest are included. Because treatments are relatively painless, anesthesia is generally not administered.
