Acne scars respond well to
dermabrasion.
Acne and rosacea are common problems faced by both women and men in their
20's to 50's. (and you thought you would outgrow it!) The routine treatment of
these disorders is covered by insurance. However, if you have been unresponsive
to the routine therapies, chemical peels and laser treatments may help you. We
can also educate you about lifestyle changes and skin care routines that will
improve your condition. Microdermabrasion may help as described below.
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a medical technique for removing the topmost
layer of skin leaving it supple and vibrant. The DiamondTone* Wand
removes this layer of skin by gently abrading the skin with natural
diamond chips while at the same time vacuuming the dead skin cells
away in a sterile and controlled manner. Removing this outer layer
of skin leaves a smoother texture and promotes new growth.
Microdermabrasion using a DiamondTone* Wand
is similar to particle dermabrasion and chemical peels in its
results but without the adverse effects of loose particles,
irritation and skin reaction. Unlike other mircrodermabraders, the
NewApeel system uses no loose crystals or other abrasives to
contaminate you or the environment.
Microdermabrasion is a wonderful
alternative to laser or chemical peels because it is noninvasive,
non-surgical and requires no down time after treatment. Normal
activities may be resumed immediately after treatment and your skin
is free of redness, irritation and particle contamination. Patients
experience softer, smoother and cleaner skin after the first
treatment. Treatment series vary from four to ten sessions depending
on the condition being treated and the type of skin.
