Are Microdermabrasion Results Permanent?
Microdermabrasion results are no permanent, as processes within the skin are always changing. It is advisable to maintain an appropriate home care routine and healthy habits to maintain healthy skin. Having maintenance treatments once your course is complete will also give your skin an added boost and keep your glow going.
Maximise your Microdermabrasion Results
Here are our top tips for maximising your Microdermabrasion results:
- Avoid irritating skincare – especially directly after your treatment. Skin will be more sensitive (and more reactive) as the top layer is exfoliated. Feed your skin with soothing, calming ingredients. A rich nourishing moisturiser like the one in the SkinBase shop is ideal.
- Avoid sun exposure where possible, and always apply SPF. Newly-exfoliated skin is even more sensitive to UV rays. Always wear SPF and stay out of direct sunlight. If you spend a lot of time outside, don’t forget to wear a hat, even when it is cloudy.
- Minimise caffeine and alcohol intake. Caffeine can affect water levels within the skin. It draws water away from the cells, while alcohol can affect hydration and blood flow. This diverts nutrients away from the skin.
- Exfoliate. Between your monthly microdermabrasion maintenance session, use a scrub to keep pores unclogged and skin clear. Once or twice a week is enough to maintain your results.
- Cleanse. Don’t undo your hard work by skipping evening cleanses and sleeping in your makeup. Be consistent with twice-a-day cleanses to remove any impurities off the skin.
- Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water to maintain a healthy complexion from the inside out.
To make the most of your microdermabrasion results, always look after your skin in between treatments. You will have a fresher and more youthful appearance that everyone will envy – and over time results become more permanent.
