Over time, your skin can begin to look older, rougher, and less appealing. As a result, you may resort to using an array of products to try and recapture a more youthful appearance, but have you considered a more effective solution such as microdermabrasion in Houston? If not, here are four unique benefits that make this type of treatment one of the best when it comes to revitalizing your skin.
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a treatment skincare specialists and doctors use to exfoliate the top layer of facial skin and remove dead skin cells. As a minimally invasive procedure, it involves using aluminum-oxide crystals to remove the damaged top layer of skin before eliminating the cells using gentle suction.
The process not only leaves patients with smoother, younger-looking skin but also promotes collagen production as well as elastin growth.
What Are Its Benefits?
Patients who opt for microdermabrasion will discover there are many unique benefits to this type of procedure, some of which include:
- Limited Downtime – The process itself takes, on average, 30 minutes or less, and requires little-to-no downtime afterward. Depending on the status of a person’s skin, the process can require less or more treatment time.
- Minimizes Fine Lines and Wrinkles – One of the most inviting benefits of microdermabrasion is its ability to minimize fine lines and wrinkles. For individuals who want to say goodbye to age lines, this procedure is not only easy to perform, but it is a welcome alternative to a complete facelift.
- Smoother Appearance – Because of the crystal’s ability to gently exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells, a patient’s face will look and feel smoother than before. This means when cleaning the face at home, it will better absorb any moisturizer, helping to keep the skin supple and soft.
- Clearer Pores – When pores are blocked by dirt and damaged cells, they do not allow moisturizers or other beneficial nutrients to penetrate. However, with microdermabrasion, patients can expect clearer pores because of the removal of these dead skin cells, which allows for a brighter complexion.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Although it will be necessary to meet with a licensed doctor to discuss one’s eligibility for treatment, most people who are considered candidates for microdermabrasion have:
- Acne
- Enlarged pores and blackheads
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage
- Hyperpigmentation
- Uneven skin tone
- And facial dryness
Clogged pores, a dull complexion, and sun damage may be the problem now, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. With microdermabrasion, patients can look and feel brand-new, leading to greater confidence in day-to-day life.
