Is Microdermabrasion A Miracle Cure Acne?
Microdermabrasion acne treatment
is a technique of smoothing
the skin and unclogging skin
pores. The treatment is relatively
new, but its results are more
than promising.
There is even more good news
for acne sufferers! Microdermabrasion
is much less invasive than
classical acne surgery and
it offers similar results.
How does it work?
It uses a mechanical device.
The Microdermabrasion acne
machine is used first to clean
the skin and peel out the
dead cells' layer. In doing
that it clears out the blocked
pores. The machine works on
the same principle as a vacuum
cleaner. The Microdermabrasion
treatment is similar to rather
gently vacuuming your skin
as opposed to the cutting
action of invasive surgery.
The second phase of the process
is spraying the skin with
an aluminum oxide. This spray
eliminates the outer layer
of dead skin cells.
The Microdermabrasion treatment
works in two ways:
1. It heals already existing
acne by cleaning the pores;
2. Then by eliminating the
dead skin cells' layer, it
prevents pimples from appearing.
Pimples are most often caused
by dead skin cells that clog
the skin's pores. When you
eliminate the dead skin cells
the chance of having pimples
is greatly decreased.
Wait, there's even more. Microdermabrasion
does not only cure acne. A
very pleasing side effect
of repeating this treatment
is increased smoothness of
skin by removing minor skin
irregularities.
How many treatments are necessary?
Usually even one Microdermabrasion
treatment can give results
lasting several months. However,
because Microdermabrasion
concentrates mostly on the
effects, not the cause of
acne, it is not capable of
a final cure of the disease.
You can expect that you will
need to repeat the treatment
after six to seven months.
Used with other treatments,
even one "skin vacuuming"
can have almost permanent
results.
Are there any precautions?
As Microdermabrasion is not
a surgery and there's no anesthesia
required, there are few side
effects. The one warning is
that the patient should not
be using Ro-accutane.
Unfortunately this very effective
treatment is usually not covered
by health insurance. The cost
of Microdermabrasion becomes
an important factor when deciding
on treatment.
