What Los Angeles Microdermabrasion Can Do For You

If you’ve ever seen an old dresser drawer sanded to reveal a beautiful wood underneath, you already know how Los Angeles microdermabrasion treatments work. While the comparison may sound scary, microdermabrasion Los Angeles facilities work by using tiny crystals of aluminum oxide, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, or similar abrasives to remove or break up the very top layer of skin. The crystals used are very tiny, so that they do not cause scarring and do not remove too much skin.

Los Angeles microdermabrasion reveals the much younger-looking skin under the top layer of your skin and encourages your skin to heal itself rapidly, which means that skin ends up looking better. Los Angeles microdermabrasion treatments can help get rid of fine lines, sun damage, blemishes, and other imperfections, since these imperfections often reside in only the top layer of skin. Since Los Angeles microdermabrasion treatments are less invasive than other cosmetic procedures, the risk of complications is also smaller, although some patients experience very temporary redness and swelling after treatment. Los Angeles microdermabrasion is also quite affordable and can be repeated a few times a year to ensure an evenly smooth skin all year long.
