What exactly is microdermabrasion?
Well for those of us who havent figured out all the different treatments on the market today, one you definitely need to know is Microdermabrasion. Amidst the relative abundance of miracle skin treatments available today, microdermabrasion has become a staple for those who like to take care of their skin, and give it a revver upper- simply because it works.
#Microdermabrasion machines essentually work as an electronic vacuum for the skin. First off, crystals are sent to the skins surface at a high speed. This exfoliates the skin, and then the machine vacuums away the used crystals along with the exfoliated skin. It removes the first layer of the dermis, and therefore gets rid of all the imperfections, acne, scarring and dead skin cells which are on that layer. The removal of a layer of skin also stimulates cellular turnover rate for you skin and increases collagen production, so your skin looks and feel healthier and younger. This is of course the simplified explanation.. but the results can range from clearer, brighter skin to actual reduction of acne and appearance of scars, redness and sunspots, etc.
So, what results can I expect from

The Best Microdermabrasion Machine- Diamond Microdermabrasion or Crystal Microdermabrasion?
There are two main types of professional Microdermabrasion machines- Diamond and Crystal. While both types utilize the same method of sending the crystals to scourge your skin of a layer of dermis, the diamond particles are actually 4 times harder than the crystal particles.
Diamond Microdermabrasion- has crystal free tips. The natural diamond tips are extremely hard, therefore very effective, and are unlikely to leave any residue which could damage the eyes or get into the nose or mouth. And there is no need to use a fresh supply of crystals after every treatment. It is a greater investment upfront, but since you dont have to constantly buy crystal refills, treatment costs are similar. It is rapidly replacing chrystal microdermabrasion in popularity.
Crystal #Microdermabrasion- needs a constant supply of crystals to use during the treatment. It uses a few different types of crystals, the most common being the Aluminum Oxide crystals which is the second hardest mineral. Another, Sodium BiCarbonate crystals, are less hard than aluminum oxide crystals, so they are less dramatic in results, but are good for patients with hyperpigmentation.
