Medical Microdermabrasion in Southend-on-Sea, Essex at JR Medical
What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment, by way of skin exfoliation without the use of chemicals or laser. The exfoliating surfaces help to remove layers of dead skin.
Microdermabrasion has been used for over 20 years with great success by plastic surgeons, dermatologists and beauty therapists for the treatment of skin problems such as scar tissue, pigmentation abnormalities and acne.
Controlled MDA (medical microdermabrasion) is a modern technique designed, with the help of a gentle, mechanical peeling process, to improve the skin’s regenerative capabilities and to better control specific skin conditions.
How does microdermabrasion work?
The machines that are used during microdermabrasion remove loose and dead skin cells using fine crystals and a vacuum. It can be used on a variety of places on the body including the chest, back and hands, but is most commonly used on the face.
When you remove this top layer of skin, your body interprets this as an injury, so it quickly replaces the lost skin cells with new healthy ones.
Who can benefit from microdermabrasion?
People that are looking to treat skin pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles or clogged pores can benefit from microdermabrasion because of the way that the procedure stimulates blood flow, improving the skin on a cellular level, including elasticity and texture. Because of this, microdermabrasion may also be effective at reducing the appearance of acne scars.
Microdermabrasion is not recommended for those with skin conditions such as Rosacea, eczema, psoriasis or severe acne, as the treatment can irritate the skin, causing further issues. It also does not work for significant scars, stretch marks or deep wrinkles.
What types of microdermabrasion are available at JR Medical?
At JR Medical, we offer two different types of microdermabrasion, one is beauty-grade microdermabrasion, which could replace a facial. This treatment is not only relaxing but beneficial for the skin.
The second type of microdermabrasion is medical-grade microdermabrasion, which should be done by medical professionals only. This treatment is used to soften scars and treat different skin problems, and therefore is a precise and time-consuming process.
