A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington and Brookfield offers microdermabrasion for patients looking to relieve common skin issues, such as oily or leathery skin, enlarged or clogged pores, fine lines and wrinkles, minor acne scarring, minor discoloration, or blemishes. Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, non-invasive, chemical-free treatment that uses a diamond-tipped wand to increase exfoliation and trigger the skin's natural healing process to rejuvenate the superficial layers of the skin.
This non-invasive treatment works by using a special device. After the skin is thoroughly washed to remove any oil and dirt, the device is moved across the targeted area by a skilled and qualified professional. This ultimately erodes the dead skin cells, which are then removed from the treatment area. This promotes collagen growth, which leads to younger-looking skin.
Microdermabrasion is a safe procedure with no surgery, anesthesia, or chemical treatments required. Unlike common procedures like chemical peels or facelifts, it is entirely non-invasive with virtually no risks of side effects.
Unlike many other common treatments, microdermabrasion requires no real recovery period or downtime. You can return to your normal routine immediately after your treatment. This includes returning to work or your other errands.
This is known to be a quick treatment, making it a perfect option for someone with a busy schedule or lifestyle.
An ideal candidate will be a healthy adult who has relatively minor skin conditions or imperfections. They should have realistic expectations for the results and prefer a non-invasive renewable treatment to a surgical procedure.
It all depends on the unique case. We may recommend a series of treatments, spaced at least a week or so apart. More serious skin issues like acne scars or skin discoloration may require additional treatments. After the initial treatment course, maintenance treatments are recommended every so often to maintain the results.
If you're considering this treatment, the first step is to schedule an initial consultation with one of our certified professionals. They will examine your skin to determine if you're a suitable candidate for the treatment and discuss the process with you in greater detail. After deciding on the targeted area and scheduling your initial appointment, you will be given instructions on how to prepare for your treatment. As this is a non-invasive treatment, prep is minimal. You will be advised to keep your face clean and free of any makeup or chemicals before your treatment.
Your treatment will be performed by a skilled expert. The first step is to thoroughly clean your face. Then, a handheld wand goes over the targeted skin area. The wand targets the damaged skin and removes the dead skin along with it. The procedure may be finished by applying a serum and/or moisturizer to protect the newly exposed skin.
Microdermabrasion is considered a comfortable, well-tolerated treatment. You may feel a mild scratching sensation as the device moves across the skin, but the feeling should be bearable overall.
This treatment has no serious side effects. Immediately after the treatment, you may experience minor tightness or dryness in the skin, akin to a mild sunburn. This can be alleviated with a moisturizer and sunblock. Your skin may appear slightly red for a day after the treatment; however, this is entirely normal and temporary. No post-treatment effects will be serious enough to restrict you from resuming most normal activities.
The first treatment typically results in an immediate improvement in skin tone and a more youthful appearance. Results will depend on your individual skin tone, but you will walk out of the treatment seeing the effects, and they will be magnified in time and with every treatment.
The face is the most common area for treatment, which is understandable since that's the first thing most people see when they look at a person.
This treatment is not recommended for anyone looking to remove deep scars, keloids, sunburns, rosacea, eczema, active acne, or deep scars. These more serious skin conditions are best treated with alternative treatments. The treatment is not recommended for anyone with skin cancer or infectious skin conditions such as warts, herpes, or unstable diabetes. Microdermabrasion is not recommended for pregnant women.
The treatment will most likely result in thicker, healthier, younger-looking skin. It will roll back minor skin ailments like fine lines, clogged pores, minor acne, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and oily or dry skin. After a full course of treatments, your body will produce new layers of skin with a higher level of collagen and elastin. Your skin will have a healthy, youthful glow.
We recommend the treatment be done by a qualified professional. The treatment requires a specific, carefully timed method of application and removal to achieve maximum skin benefits.
Microdermabrasion is an all-natural, non-invasive treatment that uses a diamond-tipped device to remove the oils and dead skin cells from your skin and stimulate the growth of younger-looking, healthier skin.
