Dermabrasion and Microdermabrasion

Improve Aged and Damaged Skin

Dermabrasion, microdermabrasion and dermaplaning are exfoliating skin rejuvenation treatments that can be performed on small areas or the entire face, neck and décolleté. They can be used as stand-alone treatments or in combination with other therapies to improve skin texture, scars and visible signs of aging.

Your Advanced Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery professional can suggest which will work best for your skin, based on factors including your skin type, skin condition and medical history.

Dermabrasion

Dermabrasion is used to remove fine lines and wrinkles, to minimize scars such as those caused by acne, and even to remove tattoos. Skin resurfacing with dermabrasion is an outpatient procedure performed by Advanced Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery physicians and surgeons. This procedure uses a high-speed rotating brush to cast off the top layer of skin. The depth of your existing wrinkles and scars will determine how much of the outer layer of skin is shed.

As the skin heals from dermabrasion, the new skin that’s formed is usually smoother and younger looking than before. This treatment can be used alone or with other skin processes to achieve your best results.

Protection from the sun will be very important following this procedure. Your Advanced Dermatology provider will give you specific instructions to follow for best skin healing to get the greatest effect from your dermabrasion procedure.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical, non-invasive procedure that gently exfoliates the outer layer of your skin, to help it look smoother, younger and healthier...with no downtime. This treatment can improve uneven skin tone, texture, dull skin, age spots, blackheads, dark spots, acne scars, and stretch marks. Optimal results are achieved with multiple treatments.

Microdermabrasion performed at Advanced Dermatology uses technology which penetrates deeper into the skin than “at-home” devices. They’re safe for all skin types and are commonly combined with other skin treatments and products for optimal results.

Skin infusions such as vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, hyperpigmentation mixture, and extra exfoliation mixtures may be used in conjunction with your microdermabrasion. Your Advanced Dermatology microdermabrasion specialist will recommend the right infusions to help you achieve your specific goals.

Multiple treatments may be suggested for optimal results. There is no downtime or peeling with microdermabrasion – just smooth, fresh and hydrated skin.
