Medical Microdermabrasion
At La Radiance I use a medical grade diamond microdermabrasion machine. The microdermabrasion tip used in the procedure is covered with tiny diamonds and can be used to exfoliate the skin on your face and neck.
As the tip makes contact with the skin it abrades against the top layer removing it. The machine then sucks the loose skin cells away. One advantage of the Diamond tip machine is that the dead skin cells are gathered onto a cotton filter and you can see exactly what has been removed. The suction works in three ways, firstly to remove the dead cells, secondly to stimulate collagen and elastin and finally to increase the blood flow to the skins surface giving the complexion a healthy glow.
Overall, microdermabrasion will reduce the appearance of fine lines, remove some scarring, clear up blackheads, minimize the size of the pores, reduce sun damage and even out skin tone.
All clients will be assessed for their suitability for the treatment. This will take place in the form of a consultation where the procedure will be discussed in more depth.
The treatment normally takes up to 30-45 minutes, depending on the area to be treated. Clients are advised to use a daily SPF30.
