Microdermabrasion

Though our skin cells constantly replenish themselves, replacing old with young in a lifelong cycle of renewal, the outermost layer represents the final stages of this process. The skin we see on our face and all over our body bears telltale signs of aging, as well as sun damage, acne, spots, and more.

Microdermabrasion at the Charleston, SC, area’s Germain Dermatology gently removes that worn-out layer of skin, exposing a smooth, younger layer.

Microdermabrasion is also an excellent way to ensure maximum infusion of serums since the fresh skin is primed to deeply absorb topical agents. Together, the exfoliation and infusion performed in microdermabrasion provide revitalization that can make you look more youthful and refreshed.

What Does Microdermabrasion Treat?

Many patients are surprised to learn all of the conditions and problems microdermabrasion can help to reduce or resolve, including:

  • Acne
  • Stretch marks and certain scars
  • Dull skin and congested pores
  • Sun spots and other pigmentation irregularities
  • Melasma
  • Fine lines
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Certain keratoses

The Germain Dermatology team will assess your face and determine whether the minimally invasive microdermabrasion technique is appropriate for you.

Microdermabrasion Options

The microdermabrasion process uses a diamond-tipped wand to remove the outermost layer of skin, but exfoliation is only one part of the treatment.

DiamondGlow

DiamondGlow is an advanced skin resurfacing procedure that uses highly efficient, three-in-one technology to exfoliate, extract, and nourish the skin at the same time. It can be applied to the face, including the sensitive areas around the eyes and on the lips, as well as the body—with virtually no recovery time needed.

The versatile DiamondGlow microdermabrasion device can be customized with different diamond tips and serums designed for various skin types. It allows for a high level of precision and control.

Once dead cells and debris have been loosened, the material is suctioned off of the surface, and SkinMedica® Pro-Infusion Serums are applied to address specific conditions. The removal of blockages like dirt and dead skin allows these serums to better penetrate and be absorbed by the free pores.

Patients are likely to notice a brighter, more radiant complexion right after a single session, as well as continued improvement with each additional procedure.
