Microdermabrasion can be remarkably effective as an acne treatment. In just a few weeks of treatment, you can look forward to clearer, smoother, healthy, glowing skin.
How does microdermabrasion work for acne and acne scars?
Microdermabrasion treatments have gradually become the first choice for many people who are looking to treat acne and acne scarring, as well as a range of other skin conditions.
Surveys suggest that 95% of adolescents and adults suffer with acne or acne scarring, so you’re not alone in your quest to find a cure.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that helps with skin rejuvenation by removing the top layer of skin, as well as the dead skin cells. This can improve the texture of your skin and reduce the appearance of blemishes, including acne scars.
There are very few side effects associated with microdermabrasion and you can return to your daily routine straight after the treatment, making it the perfect way to reduce the appearance of acne scars on your face.

How Acne is Caused
1. Clear Pores. This shows a heathy follicle and sebaceous gland.


2. Duct clogged by dead cells, sebum starts to accumulate.


3. Bacterial infection, inflammation triggered – Pimple.


4. Follicle ruptures, pustule with fluid is formed, resulting in Acne.


Different types of acne
Most serious acne scarring is caused by the more severe forms of acne, with nodules more likely to leave permanent scars than other types of acne.Your skin type will have an impact on the acne or acne scarring you have and whether microdermabrasion is the best treatment for you.
Mild acne


Moderate acne


Severe acne


This severe acne causes nodules — painful, pus-filled cysts or lumps to appear under the skin.
Microdermabrasion is usually best for treating acne scars or non-inflammatory acne. If it’s used on inflammatory acne, it can have a negative impact and make the skin feel more sore and raw.
Microdermabrasion for acne scars before and after

Before
“I’d had bad skin since I can remember, I exacerbated the problem by piling on make up and generally picking at breakouts. People who have never suffered from bad skin don’t realise how debilitating it can be. After spending hundreds of pounds on make up, I was desperate to find a solution that worked. “


After
“The SkinBase Facials™ have made such a vast improvement to my skin that wearing foundation has for the first time in many years become a choice rather than a necessity, I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt that the treatments have made such a huge improvement to my skin. I feel amazing.”


“I started having Microdermabrasion due to really bad skin flare ups that would be a mixture of spots, welts and boils with terrible dry skin around the nose area. It was painful and totally destroyed my self confidence, stopping me leaving my house as I felt hideous. I saw an advert for SkinBase microdermabrasion with Hollie and thought it’s now or never to try this treatment. I was so nervous and self conscious going but my father supported me by driving me to the door of the salon.”


“After a course of treatments my skin was glowing. It was clear, it was healthy and bit by bit my confidence came back and I started going for a coffee and cake after my treatments!
I have kept up with regular microdermabrasion with Hollie and now I can walk around make up free having good skin, it literally gave me my confidence to get my life back and speak to people again.
I love my skin and will always have microdermabrasion to keep it in this condition.”
