Microdermabrasion & Diamond Peel

Microdermabrasion was approved by USA-FDA in 1997. After almost seven years of successfully treating Europeans for a number of skin conditions and literally hundreds of thousands of satisfied patients, it is available in Dr Ganesh MicrodermMadurai at our center since 2004. In the last 8 years almost 7000 - 7500 Microdermabrasion and Diamond dermabrasion have been performed at our clinic.

The result is fresher, healthier and younger looking skin with a smooth texture and a silky touch. Micro- dermabrasion is beneficial for both young and mature skin and is safe for all skin types.

Most of you may have heard friends talk about having a "Derma Peel,Microderm Peel or Lunchtime peel all are types of Microderm-abrasion, the latest treatment available to revitalize and smoothen your skin. The treatment uses a fine mist of microscopic aluminum oxide crystals to exfoliate the top layers of skin (epidermis).

What is Particulate Skin Resurfacing ?

Microdermabrasion is performed with no pre medication and requires no anesthesia. The procedure is done using a precision hand piece that directs a stream of very fine crystals which gently removes the outermost layers of the skin.

The doctor controls the power of the spray, performing a gentle removal of the skin to a deeper exfoliation where ever needed. At a low power, Microdermabrasion might be compared to results similar to those of glycolic acid peels. A full-face treatment generally takes 20 to 30 minutes.

Following the treatment, your skin appears lightly pink, but there is no obvious redness. Some patients say their face feels as if their skin has been mildly sun-burned. The skin may peel to reveal a more softer smoother and younger looking skin. The number of treatments depends on the skin condition. Usually 4 to 12 treatments are required at least once in every 2 weeks. A maintenance treatment of one sitting every 30 - 45 days will give a sustained beautiful blemishless skin

In the case of a deeper treatment level for more blemished or thicker skins, the skin will appear slightly red and swollen for a few hours to a few days.

Similar to a light glycolic peel, the procedure can improve fine lines and wrinkles, blackheads and whiteheads (pimples), superficial darkening pigmentation, and will give the skin a healthy-looking glow. It may be used in combination with Glycolic chemical peel for scar correction.
