Microdermabrasion benefits include; deep exfoliation for clean, clear skin, improved skin tone and texture, stimulates collagen and elastin production and speeds up cell renewal. It is also very effective for more stubborn skin concerns including acne, acne scarring and pigmentation.

Microdermabrasion for acne sufferers is very effective, unblocking clogged pores, increasing blood flow to the area and promoting healing to remove pigmentation caused by spots. How often you have microdermabrasion treatments will affect the results you achieve. We recommend a course of 6-8 facials carried out at intervals of 7-10 days. For acne and acne scarring more treatments may be required up to a maximum of 20 in a course.

Microdermabrasion is perfect for all skin types and a number of different skin concerns. So whether you suffer from acne, have sensitive skin or your skin is normal, you will benefit from the treatment. The common side effects of microdermabrasion include mild tenderness, swelling or redness but these will usually go away within a few hours of treatment.
Microdermabrasion aftercare is also important to achieve the best results from a course of treatments. Your skin will benefit from regular applications of moisturiser and use an SPF to protect the freshly exfoliated skin from the elements. Our site has lots of microdermabrasion reviews and microdermabrasion before and after results so you can see the results our SkinBase therapists are achieving.
