Skin polishing generally refers to a technique to improve the skin, its texture, improve acne, fine lines and spots around the skin. It is a way to improve your skin by making it more smoother, brighter and softer. The skin becomes more radiant as the dead skin is removed by killing the dead cells. This is a great method to reverse skin damage.
How is the treatment done?
Skin polishing is a very easy and gentle treatment and can feel very similar to having a facial. In the session, prior to the treatment, the face would be thoroughly clean to ensure it is devoid of any makeup or other chemical products.
The dermatologist would then use the microdermabrasion head, multiple times around the face as that would help exfoliate your skin and lighten the scars or marks on the skin. This procedure would be carried on for around 30 to 45 minutes in one session.
This simple treatment would just require the individual to lie back as the equipment takes control of the skin, removing the dead cells and giving the skin a new life. Every pore of the skin would be gone through as the microdermabrasion head would suck up the dead cells and nurture the skin to make it look fresher and smoother in appearance.
The session would be followed by the application of creams or serums on the skin to heal the open pores and close them to retain the treatment. The skin might be subjected to redness, which would wear off with time and the cream or serum would help to prevent any further side effects.
Once the redness goes, the skin would feel lighter, softer and smoother and the individual can continue sessions to fulfill the requirement he or she wishes to achieve.
