reditisMicrodermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure on the skin that is growing rapidly in popularity both in Europe and America. Women everywhere have jumped aboard the microdermabrasion train, making it one of the top non-surgical cosmetic procedures used around the world, and increasingly men are turning to it as well. In this article we’ll have a look at what it is and why people are turning to it in increasing numbers.
What is microdermabrasion?
Skin is made up of two main layers, the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is composed of a set of dead or dying skin cells that cover another layer of cells, which are in the process of developing and maturing. The very outer level of the epidermis is called the stratum conreum, and it is this skin layer that is exposed to all the ills of weather, time, and problems that tend to impact the skin. It does its best to work as a barrier to prevent damage to the lower skin levels. Unfortunately, the stratum conreum layer tends to highlight skin imperfections like fine lines and wrinkles or skin blemishes. It is this very outer layer of the epidermis that microdermabrasion seeks to remove, and so make our skin appear younger-looking.
Microdermabrasion works by gently exfoliates this outer epidermal layer, the stratum conreum, buffing away dead and dull skin cells to reveal a fresh, younger-looking skin beneath. Pure, sugar-fine mineral crystals gently sweep away the damaged surface cells, encouraging the skin's natural renewal process, so that radiant, refined skin can shine through. The procedure is quick and relatively painless.
