Youthful Essence
Developed more than a decade ago in Europe, microdermabrasion crossed the Atlantic in 1998, gaining popularity at an astounding rate. Today, it’s one of the top non-surgical cosmetic procedures in the U.S., enticing millions of men and women every year with its magical skin-rejuvenating effects.
Microdermabrasion is a simple cosmetic procedure designed to safely exfoliate the outer epidermal layer of the skin, removing dead, dull skin cells to reveal the fresh, younger-looking skin beneath. Pure, sugar-fine mineral crystals gently sweep away the damaged surface cells, encouraging the skin’s natural renewal process so radiant, refined skin can shine through. The procedure is quick and painless. And, while just one treatment may produce results, additional treatments are desirable and recommended to attain – and maintain – the dewy complexion desired.
What are the benefits?
By removing the damaged top layers of the skin, microdermabrasion can literally help undo the ravages of time. After just one treatment, it can diminish fine lines and wrinkles, fade age spots and superficial sun damage, refine enlarged pores, equalize skin tone, and stimulate circulation. Overall, the effect is much like turning back the clock to restore the silky soft skin of younger years.
Are there risks?
Microdermabrasion exfoliates only the most superficial layer of skin. If redness or irritation occurs, apply less pressure when using the Resurfacing Tool…if irritation persists, discontinue use for a few days to let your skin rest. If you suffer from rosacea, pustule acne or other sensitive skin disorders, consult your health care practitioner before using Youthful Essence®.
