Different Types And Benefits And Side Effects Of Microdermabrasion


The skin faces a lot of wear and tear in everyday life. T works hard to protect the body and prevents pollutants or harmful bacteria from affecting our organs. It is safe to say that skin serves a lot of important purposes, and hence, we should work on making sure that it stays healthy for a long time. 
With regular wear and tear of the skin, a lot of dead and dull cells get accumulated in the top layer or your skin. Not only that, but bacteria, germ, and sebum can also get trapped in the skin leading to acne and blocked pores. Thankfully, now you can use a microdermabrasion treatment to ensure that your skin is free of any impurities.

What Is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a treatment which is gaining a lot of popularity. It can be viewed as a more intensive exfoliation. Usually, microdermabrasion treatment involves the use of a handheld device or wand which is tipped with diamond chips or crystals. These crystal or chips are sandblasted onto the skin, and they help to slough off the dead skin cells. The machine works by blasting the skin with these crystals while simultaneously sucking in the used crystals and dead cells. Once you have completed your first microdermabrasion session, you are sure to see an immediate brightening effect.
Microdermabrasion can be performed by trained professionals, or at home with the help of microdermabrasion kits. They are easy to use and are relatively hassle-free.

Different Types Of Microdermabrasion:
There are mainly three different types of microdermabrasion procedure that you can choose from, depending on whether you are going to a professional, or opting for an at-home kit.

When you go to a professional you have the following options:
·         Diamond Microdermabrasion:
This type of microdermabrasion technique involves the use of a natural or synthetic diamond tip wand to exfoliate the skin. The diamond chips are not loose, that is, they are not blasted onto the skin. Instead, the chips remain attached to the wand lending the aesthetician greater control when using the device. Although these devices do come with suction, it comes in direct contact with the skin so that it can suck in the dead skin cells. Since diamond is the hardest substance on the planet, they have greater strength when it comes to skin abrasion.

·         Crystal Microdermabrasion:
As the name suggests, these devices use crystals tips instead of diamonds. These machines blast loose crystals onto the face and then suck in the used crystals and dead cells with each sweep of the skin. Since this involves the use of loose crystals, this machine can reach all of the places a diamond-tipped wand cannot.

·         DermaSweep:
The final procedure that you can opt for when you go to professional is a dermasweep. This procedure is similar to a diamond-tipped wand in that it does not involve the use of any loose particles. Instead, they use bristles made of nylon or some other synthetic fiber to exfoliate the skin. The vacuum that comes with these devices are gentler and have reversible airflow allowing them to push and pull the skin. The bristles are also used to deliver helpful serums into the skin such as salicylic and hyaluronic acid which the skin can absorb better after exfoliation.

·         Cream-only Microdermabrasion:
These creams are used as an at-home treatment. As the name suggests, these are creams which have exfoliating agents in them and are spread with the help of your fingertips to exfoliate the skin. These creams do not involve the use of any machine, and they are less effective than a diamond or crystal tipped device which you can also find for home use. However, since thee creams are a lot more gentle on the skin they can be used for your everyday skin regime.
