Microdermabrasion, sometimes called crystal peeling, is a non-surgical and non-invasive skin exfoliation procedure, which aims to promote skin rejuvenation by removing dead cells.
It is performed with a small suction device that removes the most superficial layer of the skin, stimulating cell renewal and collagen stimulation.
It can be used to smooth expression lines and fine wrinkles, to lighten hyperpigmentation spots, eliminate small stretch marks with better results on red ones and to minimize acne scars and other skin imperfections.
It is a painless procedure and can be performed on the face, chest, neck, arms or hands. After microdermabrasion, it is important to avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen. Microdermabrasion can be combined with skin cleansing and provides a velvety, silky feel to the skin.
