Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skincare treatment that uses a diamond tip to exfoliate the outer layer of dead skin cells, promoting the growth of new, healthier skin and improving complexion for more even-toned, dewy skin. It also makes the skin more receptive to other treatments.

Here are the four best facials to pair a microdermabrasion add-on with:

1. Clinical Facial + Microdermabrasion:

 

    • Deep Cleansing: Microdermabrasion preps the skin by clearing away dead skin cells, allowing the clinical facial to cleanse at a deeper level.
    • Improved Absorption: Removing the skin’s outermost layer enhances the absorption of active ingredients used during the clinical facial, making the treatment more effective.
    • Synergistic Results: Combining these treatments can address multiple skin concerns simultaneously, such as acne, fine lines, and uneven skin tone, yielding comprehensive results.

2. Noninvasive Mesotherapy Facial + Microdermabrasion:

 

      • Enhanced Penetration: Microdermabrasion increases the permeability of the skin, ensuring that the serums and solutions used in mesotherapy penetrate deeper and are more effective.
      • Stimulated Blood Flow: The exfoliation from microdermabrasion stimulates circulation, preparing the skin for better nutrient absorption during mesotherapy.
      • Uniform Treatment: Exfoliating beforehand ensures a smoother and more even skin surface, allowing for uniform application and absorption during the mesotherapy session.

3. OxyGeneo Super Facial + Microdermabrasion:

 

    • Optimized Oxygenation: By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, microdermabrasion enhances the skin’s natural oxygenation process, complementing the OxyGeneo treatment.
    • Boosted Radiance: Pairing these treatments provides a double boost to skin radiance, combining the exfoliating benefits of microdermabrasion with the revitalizing benefits of OxyGeneo.
    • Prolonged Results: Combining these treatments offers longer-lasting results, as the synergistic effects of exfoliation and oxygenation supports continued skin health.

4. RF Skin Tightening and Contouring + Microdermabrasion:

 

    • Increased Efficacy: Pre-treatment with microdermabrasion makes the skin more receptive to the radiofrequency (RF) waves, supporting the treatment’s tightening effect.
    • Smoother Application: Removing dead skin cells provides a smoother skin surface, ensuring a more even application of the RF treatment.
    • Enhanced Results: The combined effect of stimulated collagen production from both microdermabrasion and RF results in improved skin texture, firmness, and contour.

What does exfoliation have to do with skin care?

The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the epidermis, which is the top layer of the skin. The stratum corneum constantly renews itself (through a process called desquamation). Old skin cells on the surface are shed, making way for new ones coming up from the lower layers of the epidermis.

Here is why you should exfoliate it with professional facials such as microdermabrasion:

  • Cell Turnover and Renewal:  As we age, this process slows down, leading to a buildup of dead cells on the surface. Exfoliation assists in removing these cells, encouraging fresher, younger cells to surface.
  • Brighter, More Radiant Skin: Dead skin cells can make the complexion look dull. By removing this layer, we can unveil a brighter, more glowing skin surface.
  • Improved Texture: Dead cell buildup can lead to rough and uneven skin texture. Exfoliation smoothens the skin, making it feel softer to the touch.
  • Prevention of Clogged Pores: Dead skin cells can mix with sebum (skin’s natural oil) and become trapped in pores, leading to issues like blackheads, whiteheads, and acne. Regular exfoliation helps prevent this buildup, keeping the pores clean.
  • Improved Product Absorption: As the barrier of dead skin cells is removed, your skincare products can penetrate the skin more effectively, enhancing their benefits. This also makes microdermabrasion an ideal add-on treatment before any facial to get the full benefits of professional, active ingredients.
  • Your Skin’s Appearance: A healthy stratum corneum reflects light better, giving the skin a luminous appearance. When it’s thickened or uneven due to dead cell buildup, the skin can appear dull, rough, or aged. Exfoliation helps in achieving and maintaining a radiant cosmetic appearance.

Starting your facial treatment with microdermabrasion lays the groundwork for truly transformative skincare. By exfoliating and removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, microdermabrasion enhances the absorption of nourishing ingredients, optimizes the effectiveness of subsequent treatments, and reveals a brighter, more rejuvenated complexion.
