Microdermabrasion - Non Surgical Skin Resurfacing
Microdermabrasion is the ultimate advancement in non-surgical, non-invasive skin resurfacing that gets rid of all dead skin cells off the top layer, off the epidermal layer and allows the new cells to come to the surface of the skin.
Microdermabrasion allows the skin to better hydrate itself; the Collagen and Elastin fibers start working to your benefit; the skin becomes plumper, fuller with a more radiant, youthful look.
Microdermabrasion treatments are gentle and take very little time, making them popular for today’s busy person. These mild yet effective treatments remove rough, flaky skin from the face and neck.
Stretch marks and acne scars can also be dramatically reduced.
