Microdermabrasion can be conducted by licensed skincare professionals that may not need any supervision of any healthcare provider. There are mainly two processes to conduct a microdermabrasion treatment. Under one approach tiny crystal particles stream from a handheld device onto your skin. Simultaneously a vacuum attached to it suctions the exfoliating crystals along with the loosened or dead skin.
Another approach involves the use of a diamond – tip wand that gently removes the dead skin giving it a rejuvenated look.
There is no requirement for anaesthesia or numbing agent during the treatment. This process may last for half an hour.
While in the process of exfoliating the superficial skin cells you may experience mild scratching on the targeted areas. A mild moisturiser and sunscreen is applied to your skin after a microdermabrasion session.
