Microdermabrasion (MegaPeel)
What is Microdermabrasion (Megapeel)?
Microdermabrasion is a skin resurfacing treatment that uses a special device to gently exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin. This can help to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, acne scars, and other skin imperfections.
How Does Microdermabrasion (Megapeel) Work?
During the procedure, a special device is used to spray tiny crystals onto the skin, which gently exfoliate the outer layer. The device also uses suction to remove the dead skin cells and crystals from the skin, leaving behind a smoother, more youthful-looking complexion.
What to Expect During and After the Procedure
The procedure typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You may feel a slight scratching or sanding sensation as the crystals are applied to the skin, but the procedure is generally painless.
After the procedure, your skin may feel slightly sensitive or tight, but this should subside within a few hours. You may also experience some redness or mild swelling, but this should also subside within a day or two.
It’s important to avoid sun exposure, harsh skin treatments, and other abrasive skin products for at least a few days after the procedure. You should also avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for several hours after the procedure.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
The number of treatments needed will depend on the individual and the severity of the skin concerns being treated. Most people see the best results with a series of treatments, spaced several weeks apart.
Risks and Side Effects
Microdermabrasion is generally a safe and effective treatment, but it does come with some risks and potential side effects. Common side effects include redness, swelling, and mild discomfort, which should subside within a day or two.
In rare cases, more serious side effects, such as infection or scarring, may occur. It’s important to choose a qualified and experienced provider for this treatment and to discuss any concerns or questions with them beforehand.
