Microdermabrasion

As we continue understanding and creating more and innovative skincare tools and devises one of the oldest and most effective treatment devices is the Diamond Tip Microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure that removes the outer layer of the skin. It was developed in 1985 by dermatologists in Italy and was adopted in the United States about 10 years later. The practice of scraping the surface of the skin to improve its appearance and health has its origins in ancient Egypt, where doctors would use sandpaper to smooth the appearance of scars. Even the ancient Egyptians want beautiful glowing skin.

Fast for to now post COVID pandemic our skin goals of beautiful, clear glowing skin are still present. In Atlanta because of the hot sticky weather in the summertime your skin can feel oily. The oiliness can lead to acne which then can leave scars. In the Atlanta winters, the cold and bitterness can leave the skin feeling dry like sandpaper.

Microdermabrasion is an excellent remedy to help resolve your skin issues the benefits can include:

Reduce wrinkles
