Get Microdermabrasion in Your own Home
Microdermabrasion is a common procedure in which the skin is exfoliated using finely ground mineral crystals. It is usually performed in a doctor’s office or spa center. However, you can use a microdermabrasion cream and/or microdermabrasion kits to get the same benefits in the comfort of your own home.
First, we will take a look at the history of microdermabrasion. Then we will move on to how you can attain its benefits with having to go to the doctor’s office.
Precursors to Microdermabrasion
The concept of abrading the skin has been around for centuries. It can be dated as far back as 1500 BC when Egyptian doctors used paper similar to sandpaper to smooth out scars. In the 1900’s in Germany, an apparatus with rotating wheels and rasps was used to remove the upper layers of the skin.
Some 50 years, a motorized machine with wire brushes replaced the hand powered devices. This was the beginning of dermabrasion. It quickly became a popular procedure for treating skin blemishes, aging skin and scars, like acne scars. However, dermabrasion did have its problems despite its popularity. For example, it needed to be performed with anesthesia because it caused pain, it required many weeks for the epidermis to heal back and it often led to more scarring.
To deal with these side effects, the first microdermabrasion machine was created in the mid 1980’s. Since then, the market for microdermabrasion machines has increases exponentially. The majority of the machines on the market find their way to doctor’s offices and day or health spas.
Home Microdermabrasion Kits and Microdermabrasion Creams
Due to the popularity of microdermabrasion, now there are microdermabrasion kits that are available to the public in general. There is a wide range of creams and kits that you can use in your home and at an affordable price.
There are two kinds of microdermabrasion kits. The first comes with the same type of ‘wand’ used by professionals. This types of kits usually include a includes special attachments, a special scrub or gel and a microdermabrasion guide, a special gel for scrubbing and different attachments.
The second type is a cream that can be applied with your fingers or a washcloth. Our microdermabrasion cream combines the most complete skin regenerating serum with the same abrading micro-crystals used with professional machines. The special serum is derived from the Helix aspersa (common garden snail) and is known for protecting, renewing, repairing and deeply moisturizing the skin.
The main difference between the two is price. The cream kits are more affordable than those that come with wands. Nevertheless, both types can help you get rid of skin imperfections.
