Microdermabrasion Federal Way

Microdermabrasion ™  has been developed as a less aggressive treatment and is often performed on people that can afford the recovery period required from full Dermabrasion procedures.  Microdermabrasion is often referred to as the "lunch time face lift" because of the tightening and smoothing of the facial skin.

Microdermabrasion is an exfoliation is accomplished inactive particle or  “sand” that is sprayed against the skin and vacuumed up, with the resulting particles collected and disposed of.  Conditions that can be treated are keratosis, sun damaged skin, mild hyperpigmentation, surgical scars, fine wrinkles and  acne scars. Situations where the procedure is contraindicated is in those with  herpes simplex, excessive numbers of small broken blood vessels, severe hyperpigmentation, or open wounds.
The procedure is not painful, and the procedure creates results that are similar to a mild sunburn. The Microdermabrasion procedure takes approximately one hour. Moisturizing lotions are used after the procedure to help reduce dryness.
