Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, exfoliating treatment helpful for those unhappy with acne scarring, sun-damaged skin, age spots, freckles, stretch marks, fine lines, scars, and rough skin. Treatment can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, back, elbows, and feet. Microdermabrasion is a safe, therapeutic approach to skin care when used alone, or in combination with other treatments.
We use conventional microdermabrasion and the Parisian Peel® system of crystal-less microdermabrasion. It is as effective as conventional microdermabrasion but without the grittiness of crystals. It is ideal for more sensitive skin and those persons who prefer not to have crystals for their microdermabrasion. The Parisian Peel® is a patented DiamondTome™ crystal free skin resurfacing system. Different patients and varying skin conditions call for multiple treatment modalities. Our Parisian Peel® system offers the flexibility to switch between using crystals and DiamondTome™ wands during the same treatment.
Ultrasound with E-stim
Ultrasound is used to drive lipid soluble vitamins and healing agents deep into the skin. Without the ultrasound, these important nutrients and healing agents only penetrate very superficially into the top layers of skin. Their benefit is maximized by getting them down into the lower portions of the dermis, where they are most active. The E-stim is a gentle form of electrical stimulation of the skin and underlying muscles that also helps deliver vitamins and products down into the deeper skin layers. By using ultrasound energy, the vitamin molecules can be delivered deeper into the dermal layers than otherwise possible. The combination of ultrasound with E-stim maximizes the benefit to the skin from vitamins and healing agents.
