If you are experiencing any displeasure with your skin appearance, whether that might be with acne, uneven skin color or skin texture, there are several options for you to explore. Skin rejuvenation is one option through a procedure called dermabrasion or microdermabrasion, which treats your skin using tiny crystals, gently massaging your skin to remove and resurface the outer layers of the skin, improving the overall appearance. This procedure has also been used to help; scarring and precancerous lesions. If there are any spots or blemishes on your face that may appear cancerous, please see a physician immediately to seek the best solution.
As people age, they are on the look out for ways to make themselves look younger and more attractive. A facial rejuvenation has always been an easy and quick way to painlessly remove layers of skin, giving your skin the desired look. With virtually no side effects besides a little redness, you will be able to resume your normal daily activities directly after the procedure. The treatment takes anywhere between ten and thirty minutes, depending on the size of the area, and results will last for a few months. Most patients will require 5-9 treatments overall.
Microdermabrasion is a popular procedure and form of skin rejuvenation, and is completely safe on every skin type or tone. Patients report smoother, softer skin, and leave feeling rejuvenated and happy. It is a very light dermabrasion, and can be done in minutes. Deeper dermabrasion removes portions of the epidermis (the outer layer) and the dermis (the inner layer), which are recommended to remove scarring from acne, or tattoos. The deeper methods are more effective but do require more healing time and can cause other complications not seen with the lighter methods.
Not everyone is a good candidate for facial rejuvenation. Some may need to undergo other treatment for acne scars, infections, or other lingering skin conditions before moving forward with any type of dermabrasion. You need to consult with your local skin physician to decide if it would be the right decision for you. Complications can arise from the procedure such as infection, prolonged healing, hyperpigmentation and scarring. If you are generally a healthy person without any known previous complications, dermabrasion might be the right choice for you.
Costs ranges from a few hundred dollars to thousands, depending on the number of procedures required and the size of the area being treated. Some patients undergoing deeper dermabrasion will require longer healing time, from 7-10 days after a procedure. Complete healing may take up to one month and collagen remodeling may continue for months after the procedure. Someone who has a lighter treatment will be able to repeat the procedure in a short amount of time, if needed. Generally one to two treatments is all that is required, but you and your physician will be able to decide what is best.
A skin rejuvenation is a procedure that has been done for years, and by the means of dermabrasion, you will be able to achieve the look that you desire with very minimal side effects or down time.
