Microdermabrasion & Glycolic Peel

Microdermabrasion, a progressive restoration process for the skin is a gentle resurfacing technique that may treat a wide range of skin imperfections. It regenerates the epidermal cell structure increasing the skin’s elasticity and collagen, resulting in a more youthful appearance to the skin.

Two Microdermabrasion Devices

Parisian Peel

The first is the Parisian Peel which uses highly controlled vacuum pressure to move microscopic aluminum oxide crystals over the surface of the skin.

Diamondtome

The second is the Diamondtome, which also uses highly controlled vacuum pressure, however, the wand has micronized diamond particles on the tip. The tips vary from fine to extra-coarse and the diamond particles on the wand tip are vacuumed across the skin to remove the dead and damaged skin cells and stimulate the collagen beneath the surface of the skin. This allows the younger, softer skin to move to the surface, thus improving the texture of the skin.

Glycolic Peel

The Glycolic Peel helps improve the texture of the skin. It smoothes rough texture, lightens dark spots and rejuvenates the skin by softening fine lines and wrinkles.
