Microdermabrasion is a treatment that is used to gently exfoliate the upper surface of your skin. Microdermabrasion has been used for many years to help even out skin tone, decrease pore size, reduce fine lines and help to revitalize the appearance of the skin.
Lasting Looks Clinic in Toronto has been providing Microdermabrasion treatments to its clients for over 15 years with consistent and excellent results.
Microdermabrasion differs from a chemical peel since it is a mechanical dry exfoliation of the skin as opposed to chemical peels, which are liquids that are derived from natural liquid acid.
Both are great treatments for the right person.
Microdermabrasion uses very tiny aluminum oxide or organic crystals, which are sprayed onto the skin and then suctioned back up through the hand piece along with the loosened skin cells. The pressure and amount of crystals being used is controlled and adjusted for each patient throughout the treatment.
The result of Microdermabrasion is that your skin will be left smoother, clearer and less congested.
Microdermabrasion also helps with the production of new skin cells and aids collagen synthesis.
With less old dead surface cells you will find that your skin care products will also penetrate better and work more effectively.
