Microdermabrasion gives hope to people who have tried all
popular over-the-counter treatments to improve
condition of their skin. Potent acids provide
power behind microdebrasion. The acids are spread across
area needing treatment with a stream of pressure just strong enough to remove
top layer of
skin that contains dead skin cells. One of
benefits of using microdermabrasion is its simplicity. Instead of
heavy-duty equipment often used to perform other procedures with similar results, microdermabrasion equipment consists of only a few items that work together to rejuvenate and refresh
skin.
The essential elements of microdermabrasion equipment include
acid crystals that are responsible for
actual removal of
dead skin, a hand-held device that holds
crystals, and a collection tank that holds
vacuumed dead skin. The pressure that is used to spray
crystals on
treatment area may seem to be extreme. However,
individual guiding
hand-held device is in complete control of
process. During
process
individual determines
amount of pressure to administer.
Microdermabrasion equipment included in a home microdermabrasion kit is similar to
equipment used in a salon except that
specialist in
salon is able to use more pressure and a higher concentration of acids. Since
equipment used influences
results, microdermabrasion equipment in a salon is far more superior and capable of producing more long-term effects than its home counterpart. However, a home microdermabrasion equipment is suitable for minor skin conditions such as fine lines, dull skin, and mild acne. In addition,
equipment included with a home system is much easier to maintain and costs a lot less.
