Wisconsin Microdermabrasion

Skin resurfacing, or microdermabrasion, is slowly becoming a science of skincare. In Wisconsin, various plastic surgeons, spas, and health outlets offer this service, and it is appealing as an alternative to plastic surgery. Although it may be an extensive treatment, it is non-invasive and does not require harsh and stringent chemicals.

Microdermbrasion is the process of using diamond chips to clean and remove dead skin cells from the skin’s surface. The surfacing tool is attached to a machine that simultaneously pulls away the skin’s top layer, and any crystals. This removes the top layer of the skin, leaving a fresh, glowing surface beneath. In just a few sessions, microdermabrasion can restore and rejuvenate your skin, bringing forward a youthful glow and vitality to the fresh pores. Results have shown that the microdermabrasion procedure can improve fine lines, wrinkles, and even sun damage. It is used as both a preventative aging technique, and a skin enhancement.

In addition to the resurfacing componet, the microdermabrasion may also involve the extraction of black and white heads using extraction tools, as well as removing loose particles and dead skin with a ‘vaccuum’. The overall process takes between 30 to 60 minutes, and can be distributed over two to three week intervals. Since it is a non-surgical procedure, there is no anesthesia required. Recovery is quick and natural, and will a little tender, almost like sunburn and dryness. Keeping the skin well-moisturized will counter the recovery effects, and your surgeon can help you select something appropriate.

The average cost of one treatment can be between $220-$400+ depending on the surgeon, location, and lotions or products you might need afterwards. Aged and wrinkled skin benefits most from this treatment, as the core component of microdermabrasion is repolishing and resurfacing. It can also help acne patients improve their skin by deep cleaning clogged pores, and resurfacing the final layer.
