FAQ about Microdermabrasion and MegaPeel

What is microdermabrasion and the MegaPeel?
Microdermabrasion is the most natural way to evenly and safely exfoliate the skin without chemicals or laser and is one of the most requested non-invasive cosmetic procedures. MegaPeel? microdermabrasion utilizes crystals to gently resurface superficial layers of the skin. When a more aggressive treatment is necessary, vacuum pressure can be increased to evenly penetrate deeper layers of the skin. With MegaPeel?'s advanced technology, you can receive customized microdermabrasion treatments to suit your specific skincare needs.

Who should consider the MegaPeel? program?
MegaPeel? is right for all skin types and for anyone interested in minimizing the appearance of scarring, fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation problems, uneven skin tones, dull, lifeless , and sun-damaged skin.

Will I experience any discomfort during the treatment?
Initially, you may feel a very mild scratching sensation as the crystals make contact with the skin. As the treatments continue, this experience compares to deep massage. Mild redness may occur for a half hour to one day depending on the aggressiveness of the program.

How many treatments will I need?
In most cases, a minimum of four to five initial treatments, seven to ten days apart, are necessary to achieve good results.


Medical Deep Pore Cleansing

When your pores become clogged with excess sebum, dead skin cells, sweat, makeup and other environmental dirt, you develop blackheads, whiteheads or other forms of acne. There are several pore extraction methods, that when performed gently and safely, can remove the dirt and debris from your clogged pores, leaving your skin looking and feeling cleaner. 

Both blackheads and whiteheads can be successfully removed with deep pore cleaning sessions.  A blackhead is a type of pimple that forms when the pores of the skin get partially clogged with oils and impurities. This will produce a dark collection of sebum, dead skin cells and keratin that plugs the opening of a pore. Whiteheads result when a pore is completely blocked, trapping sebum (oil), bacteria, and dead skin cells, causing a white appearance on the surface. Deep pore cleansing first involves cleansing and exfoliating of the skin.  Your skin will then be steamed which will ensure that the skin cells are prepared for extraction. Methods for deep pore cleansing work by applying gentle pressure near the clogged pore to remove the debris. The skin will then be cleansed and proper skin care products will be used for your specific needs.  There are several benefits to pore extraction, most notably unclogging your pores, which can lead to healthier looking skin. Keeping your pores clean and clear can also help to prevent future acne breakouts as well as keep your pores from looking larger than they actually are.  This procedure will not disrupt your normal routine and can be done in a series of treatments to obtain optimal results along with the proper home skin care regimen.
