A Consumer's Perspective Of Microdermabrasion And The Microdermabrasion Machine By Saurabh Yadav At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Microdermabrasion is not exactly a new procedure on the dermatological scene. I had not heard of it until the year 2003, but it has been around since 1982 in Europe. This procedure is now one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedures performed in 2008 and has exploded in popularity. This technique is a really just what it sounds like, a skin sanding or re-surfacing on the micro level of the epidermis. The microdermabrasion machine will use tiny abrasive particles blasted into the skin, then vacuumed away in a tiny compressor. The diamond microdermabrasion uses a diamond tip with no stray particles. The procedure actually peels away the outer layer of skin (about 15 microns). This layer is so slim that it can't be seen. This procedure is equally as effective as surgical procedures like painful laser and skin peels, but it is painless with no anesthesia required, and only takes about 45 minutes for the average treatment. Microdermabrasion machines are varied in complexity and multi functionality, but the basic microdermabrasion machine does the same function for the skin re-surfacing. There is very little difference from a consumers perspective.

The newly abraded skin will look a little pink and can be a tiny bit inflamed for a few days. This new skin will be softer, smoother, more even appearing skin. The first time that I tried the procedure it was done with by an aesthetician using a professional microdermabrasion machine. However, I have many friends who have tried the procedure using do-it-yourself home microdermabrasion machines. These home machines, or kits are not really microdermabrasion and do not yield the same positive results as a professional microdermabrasion machine. I now have treatments done every three months and my skin is youthful, smooth, and as beautiful as it was before I was a teenager and experienced acne. The aesthetician at my spa uses the NOVA NV-07D that can be found at Sylvan Company.

What can microdermabrasion machines be used for?

· Rejuvenation of sun damaged skin - face, back, neck, shoulders, arms, legs

· Reduction and elimination of age spots

· Minimization of blotchy skin coloring

· Elimination or smoothing of fine wrinkles

· Extraction of blackheads and whiteheads.

· Lessening of oily type skin.

· Reduction of acne scars and other superficial scars, elimination of some scarring.

· Reduction of acne

· Improvement of overall skin health and skin capillary circulation

I have now been receiving microdermabrasion treatments at my spa for three years regularly. I receive treatments once every month now. My skin is has never looked better and I less wrinkles, no sun spots, no acne, reduced scarring and look many years younger than when I started. I would recommend microdermabrasion machine treatment to any of my friends and family. I am so glad that I have found a non-surgical, non-invasive solution that works so well.

I now have healthy, glowing, beautiful skin and that is something that I could never say before microdermabrasion. The research evidence shows microdermabrasion will increase the production of elastin and collagen fibers in the skin.
