Microdermabrasion Machine -- the #1 Home Professional Skin Care Treatment

In the world of skin care, there are many gimmicks out there waiting to steal away your money and deliver nothing. We’ve all heard of that “new” skin care product or that “must have” machine that will instantly clear you skin of acne and blemishes. You go out and buy the product only to find it doesn’t work.

That being said, there are some skin care products that do deliver what they promise. However, these are few and far between. I’ve fallen prey to pretty much every skin care gimmick known to man. One skin care product (actually, machine) that actually did do something for my skin was the microdermabrasion machine.

What’s microdermabrasion? Microdermabrasion treatments basically involve high velocity particles that are blasted onto your skin and vacuumed away. This treatment, which can take up to 30 minutes, helps to remove any dead skin on your face. The top layer of your skin is often removed, leaving a fresh, clean layer behind. This means that your face looks instantly better after the treatment.

Microdermabrasion treatments are a great cost-friendly alternative to the invasive cosmetic treatments like chemical peels, plastic surgery, and Botox. You get some of the benefits (reduction of acne marks and oil skin, opened pores, removal of wrinkles) without the high costs. Even better, microdermabrasion is completely painless. With chemical peels, plastic surgery, and Botox you undergo days – even weeks – of pain and suffering. Not so with microdermabrasion treatments.

Now there are various microdermabrasion treatments to choose from. You can opt to visit a professional or you can purchase a portable at home microdermabrasion machine which can do the same thing as the professional models, but in the comfort of your own home. You can also save money on treatments if you own your own machine.

You can use a microdermabrasion machine on your face, chest, back, hands, feet – basically, anywhere on your body! This means the machine is incredibly versatile. Now, skin treatment is not limited to only your face.

The microdermabrasion machine consists of a pump and compressor that mix up a gentle particle abrasion with a vacuum to remove dead skin from the top surface of your skin. The result is more youthful looking skin

Here are some of the obvious benefits of a microdermabrasion machine:

*Revitalizes skin

*Flattens skin tone so it looks more even

*Gets rid of stretch marks

*Removes mild pigmentation of skin

*Eliminates acne spots, and wrinkle marks

*Removes environmental pollution from your skin

*Works on any skin type!

Unlike other serious skin treatment procedures, microdermabrasion treatments allow you to get back to your routine after only a single hour of “recovery.” When you first get treated, you may notice some mild redness and swelling of your skin. However, within an hour these will be gone, leafing more youthful looking skin behind.

If after the treatment your skin peels a bit, simply put some moisturizer and sun screen on. Like most skin care treatments, you should try to avoid excessive skin exposure for 24 hours. This is to give your skin a chance to heal. However, the increased youthfulness of your skin is worth this small price.

If you have your own microdermabrasion machine, you should undergo six or so treatment sessions every two weeks to get the best results. But since you own the machine, this should be easy – no need to drive anywhere, no need to pay money. Just you and your machine!

There are various microdermabrasion machine brands. In my experience the best ones are the Parisian Peel, Claiederm, and Dermaglow. You can find the machines in some major retail stores or specialty stores. However, I highly suggest you look online to purchase your machine. You can find the machine on sale at Amazon for discounted prices, or you can find them cheap or used on eBay.
