Microdermabrasion is effective in reducing fine lines, "crow's feet," age spots and acne scars. It stimulates the production of skin cells and collagen. It has proven to be a very popular nonsurgical cosmetic procedure.

The hand piece emits crystals onto the surface of the skin, resulting in a gentle abrasion or "polishing" process. Each treatment takes from 30 minutes to an hour. The number of treatments recommended for maximal results can range between 5 and 12, spaced from 2 to 3 weeks apart. Maintenance of results requires periodic repeat treatments after the initial regimen is completed. Microdermabrasion may be combined with a light chemical peel to increase the effect.

Benefits include:
* Virtually no side effects.
* Gives the skin an overall fresh, healthy-looking glow.
* Nonsurgical, safe, effective "lunch hour" procedure.
* Effective on all skin colors and types.
* No anesthetic required.
* Excellent for skin sensitive to chemical procedures.
* Normal activities can be resumed immediately.

Other Considerations include:
* Requires multiple sessions and maintenance treatments.
* Patients with good skin tone will show best results.
* An individualized skin care program may be recommended to maximize results.
