Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion* is a skin-freshening technique
that helps repair facial skin that takes a beating
from the sun and the effects of aging. The plastic
surgeon uses a device like a fine sandblaster
to spray tiny crystals across the face, mixing
gentle abrasion with suction to remove the dead,
outer layer of skin. As with other skin rejuvenation
techniques, more than one treatment may be needed
to reduce or remove fine wrinkles and unwanted
pigmentation.
