Skin Resurfication ?

Skin resurfacting us a process that involves the  removal of the top layer of the skin to expose the younger looking skin that’s  hidden underneath.

The most common treatments of skin resurfication are dermabrasion (or microdermabrasion) and chemical peeling.

Though less invasive than face lifts, dermabrasion  is still  not a simple, trivial procedure, so before you consider setting an appointment

for this type of skin treatment - you might as well  be clear and more knowledgeable about what these treatments can or can’t do:

Skin resurfacing procedures are quite good dealing with the following conditions: fine lines and wrinkles

  • Acne scars
  • Freckles
  • Age spots
  • Skin Pigmentation
  • Rough skin tissue
  • Wrinkles
  • Fine facial lines
  • But keep in mind that it cannot, in any way make deep wrinkles or deep scars disappear
    and it certainly can’t tighten loose skin (for that you’ll need to visit a plastic surgeon’s clinic
    to discuss a face lift).

    If you want to consider a more natural, less intrusive facial treatment that goes deep into your skin you may want
    to explore other alternatives such as face-muscle-exercise or facial toning solutions.

    Overall, skin resurfacing treatments should go along with other “satellite” treatments - like microdermabrasion cream or exfoliating treatment for maximal results
