It’s All About Exfoliation

| You constantly hear about the new latest procedures in medical spa settings from microdermabrasions, lasers and chemical peels yet it is quite confusing. Many medical spa services including the ones mentioned above simply work on the principle of removing dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. This allows a new skin surface to be revealed which is smoother, clearer and more even toned. It is simply a question of how many layers removed, how much pain is involved and recovery time in the specific procedure.
Microdermabrasion can remove up to 3-5 microns and is fairly pain free yet doesn’t provide a significant effect in one procedure. Chemical peels can be quite effective and can go quite deep (up to 50 microns) but can be painful. Recovery time can be from 1 - 20 days depending on the type of peel obtained. Microlaser peels are popular now and are quite effective and can go up to 150 microns deep with fractionalization. The down time can be relatively short for the amount of skin removed. Remember, one of the aspects of obtaining great skin is the removal of the appropriate level of dead skin. Feel free to consult with Skinprint or your Skinprint affiliated spa to receive expert advise on what is best for you. |
