Microdermabrasion in Birmingham

Once upon a time, in a faraway place called Hollywood, movie stars used a special technique to keep themselves looking young and beautiful. Now, this magical tool is available to everyone. Microdermabrasion is a powerful method of treating the skin in a way that results in smoother skin and a more youthful appearance. You no longer have to submit to the risks associated with invasive plastic surgery.

You are fortunate because you live in a community where this kind of advanced treatment is available. When you get ready to consult an expert, you’ll learn how easy it is to find the best place for microdermabrasion in Birmingham.

You skin has two layers including the dermis and the epidermis which is the outermost layer. The skin you see and touch is comprised of dead skin cells waiting to slough off naturally. They protect the layer underneath that is made of skin cells that are maturing and getting ready to take the place of the surface cells. It is a continuous process. In fact, the skin is the largest organ in your body. It not only keeps everything where it belongs, it protects the rest of the body.

Microdermabrasion uses small, coarse particles to loosen and remove the outside layer of skin. There are a number of ways to do this. We have selected what we believe is the most efficient and beneficial equipment. Whether your concern is for your face and neck or your chest, arms, or hands, we can treat the areas you choose. When the treatments are completed, you’ll be amazed by the results.

Microdermabrasion has some beneficial side-effects. It turns out that if you remove the outermost part of the skin, what is referred to as the stratum corneum, the lower layer of the skin behaves as if it has suffered damage. It hurries to repair the damage by creating new skin cells to replace the cells that are gone. You may experience some swelling shortly after the treatment while the skin works to accomplish this task. These new cells do not display the same level of damage as the ones they replace. Thus, fine wrinkle lines, skin blemishes, weather damaged cells, and other minor skin imperfections will show improvement.

Once that outer layer has been removed, the creams and other treatments you apply to the skin are able to better penetrate the skin in order to deposit moisture. Thus, the creams you use do even more good than before. When you’re ready to have microdermabrasion in Birmingham, be sure to give our office a call. We’re ready when you are.
