Living with acne can be a real nightmare. There are many over the counter acne medications, but finding one that works is often an expense path to nowhere. That is why more and more acne sufferers are discovering the power of the microdermabrasion treatment method. Microdermabrasion is a cutting edge medical procedure<\/a> that treats blackheads, whiteheads, hyperpigmentation and most other forms of acne.<\/p>\n

How Microdermabrasion Treats Acne<\/h2>\n

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasion procedure that removes the dry, dead skin cells that build up on the face and body. These skin cells build up naturally, but it is their presence that often leads to acne and many other skin conditions by clogging pores and hindering the expulsion of bodily oils.<\/p>\n

With microdermabrasion, tiny crystals are sprayed over the skin, causing the dead cells to break apart and release themselves<\/a> from the surface. This process exfoliates and massages the surface of the skin, creating a healthier appearance. A small vacuum is then used to remove both the dead skin cells and the crystals, leaving your skin smooth and clear. This process not only helps to remove dead cells, but it also reduces the long term effects of a breakout, such as visibly large pores and spots.<\/p>\n

How Often Should Treatments Occur?<\/h2>\n

It is recommended that microdermabrasion treatments occur twice a month<\/a>. Three times a month is optional, but often unnecessary. Immediately after a treatment, the skin may appear pinkish, but there is very little discomfort and absolutely no recovery time necessary. Patients can go about their daily routine immediately after leaving the facility.<\/p>\n

Once your skin is visibly clearer, treatment frequency may be reduced to only once every 2 or 3 months. That is nothing compared to the life changing effects of microdermabrasion.<\/p>\n

When To Use Microdermabrasion<\/h2>\n

It is important to understand that not all acne conditions are the same. Inflamed acne is much more difficult to treat, and an aggressive procedure, such as microdermabrasion, may actually worsen the condition.<\/p>\n

Consult with your doctor or talk to a Calabasas Dermatology Center expert to determine whether microdermabrasion is right for you. Patients with rosacea<\/a>, broken capillaries or highly sensitive skin should avoid microdermabrasion and all other aggressive forms of acne treatment.<\/p>\n
