Microdermabrasion can be used to treat

• Brown Spots
• Acne scars
• Sun damaged skin
• Dull or aging skin
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Enlarged pores
• Stretch marks
• Milia

Microdermabrasion uses fine (micro) diamonds to remove the top layer (stratum cornuem) and promote production of skin cells in the basal layer of the dermis. of dull, aging skin, to reveal the newer, more vibrant skin that lies below. Once these dead and damaged skin cells are removed, your skin will immediately feel and look smoother, fresher, healthier and more youthful.

This simple treatment offers simple relief for dull or oily skin, enlarged and clogged pores, fine lines, and depressed scars with no downtime!
