A Microdermabrasion is one of the most popular advanced skin treatments on the market thanks to its long list of incredible benefits. As well as cleansing, exfoliating and illuminating any skin type by clearing away the dead skin cells, a microdermabrasion also has other lesser-known advantages.

 

Improves internal skin health

A microdermabrasion doesn’t only help your skin glow on the outside, it can also improve your internal skin health. The vacuum suction combined with diamond-tipped exfoliation does a fantastic job at increasing blood flow and lymphatic circulation deep within the skin. This process means that more oxygen and nutrients can reach the cells, enhancing skin health and improving elasticity. Hence that healthy pink colour your skin turns during treatment!

 

Reduces the appearance of fine lines

In addition to boosting your internal skin health, a microdermabrasion can also help reduce the external signs associated with ageing, such as fine lines and wrinkles. Sounds too good to be true, right? Wrong! By removing the top layer of the epidermis, any dead skin cells sitting in and around fine lines and wrinkles are eliminated – making the lines and wrinkles much less noticeable.

 

Generates cell turnover

As we age, our natural cell turnover slows down and can leave our skin looking tired, dull or lacklustre. A Microdermabrasion works to stimulate collagen and speed up cell renewal and turnover. This process encourages the skin to create newer, younger-looking layers of skin, meaning the benefits of your Microdermabrasion continues long after your time in the clinic!

 

Enhances product absorption

At The Cosmetic Clinic, we’re always advocating the use of active skincare products to enhance your in-clinic treatments. But did you know it also works the other way around? Regular Microdermabrasions will help to improve the efficacy of your home-care products by increasing absorption. This is great news for anyone using a cosmeceutical skincare range to actively target their skin concerns.

 

Reduces pore size

Not only does this treatment work to unclog your pores and clear congestion, it can reduce pore size as well. While our pore size is mostly determined by genetics and age, they are also susceptible to enlargement due to a range of external factors (including poor hygiene, high oil flow and inflammation). Microdermabrasion uses exfoliation to keep pores clean and free of dirt, which in turn reduces inflammation, improves natural skin hygiene and controls excess oil flow.
