Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive procedure that uses exfoliating surfaces to help remove the superficial layer of dead skin cells. When you remove the stratum corneum, or the top layer of skin, the body interprets it as an injury. It then quickly replaces the lost skin cells with new, healthy ones.

Microdermabrasion helps to reduce appearance of:

• Fine lines
• Shallow Acne Scars
