"I had a microdermabrasion treatment for the first time and what a pleasant experience it was. Besides making my skin feel very soft, smooth and refreshed, I felt as though I had a relaxing face massage. My skin was renewed after just one treatment; I definitely will be seeing Dr. Lotstein for more treatments."

Microdermabrasion

Years of sun exposure and the aging process take their toll on the skin creating lines, wrinkles, and changes in texture and color. Not only is the face a likely victim of these changes, but the neck, chest, cleavage, arms and hands may be affected as well. Microdermabrasion can reduce the effects of aging on our skin.

Microdermabrasion is a treatment that improves wrinkles, skin texture and tone by removing the topmost layer of skin leaving it more supple and vibrant. Microdermabrasion also stimulates the elastic tissue beneath the surface of the skin resulting in a healthier and more firm appearance.

What is Microdermabrasion?

The ancient Egyptians are said to be the first to use Microdermabrasion skin care techniques to improve their skin. Kings and queens used alabaster and pumice to remove blemishes and rough spots and to make their skin smooth and soft.

In the mid-90's a skin care technique using aluminum oxide powder was developed in Italy. The process used a vacuum and a small orifice to exfoliate the skin. Diamondtome, our machine that we use for mechanical exfoliation, is an evolution of exfoliation.

Diamondtome offers a twenty-first century skin care technology for applying the millennia old technique of exfoliation. By eliminating the powders and crystals (aluminum oxide and salt) Diamondtome has made skin rejuvenation the clean, controlled procedure it should be.

A wonderful alternative to chemical peels, Microdermabrasion is non-invasive, pain-free and requires no down time after treatment. We regard the Diamondtome system as being more gentle and effective than other exfoliating systems, even at higher settings. The length of the treatment and number of treatments vary depending on skin type and condition. Results are gradual, pleasurable, but highly effective. Most people experience softer, smoother skin even after their first treatment.
