Testimonials

"Skin Type Solutions really helped me formulate a positive cleaning regimen and the results have been wonderful. I have had less problems with my extremely sensitive skin than ever before. I highly recommend!" - Cherisse, Skin Type Solutions Client

"In my teens and twenties I never paid much attention to my skin, partly because I didn't have any major problems and partly because I wasn't very interested in beauty, fashion magazines etc.

But, at 34 I started looking at my skin more closely, and, much to my dismay, I realized that I was beginning to show the signs of ageing; for the first time I noticed that I had crowsfeet, smile lines and age spots.

I decided I probably should start taking a little better care of my skin, but I didn't really know "what" I should be doing. Since it's nearly impossible to get a dermatologist to spend any serious time with you, I decided to try Skin Type Solutions instead and I think it was a good choice." - Lisa, Skin Type Solutions Client

What Is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a skin resurfacing treatment that works by gently abrading the top layer of the skin with the help of a diamond tipped wand, leaving a new, fresh layer underneath. It is a non-invasive, non-surgical cosmetic procedure. Microdermabrasion offers benefits to anyone who wants to improve specific skin conditions and rejuvenate the overall health and appearance of their skin.

    * Rejuvenates sun damaged skin - face, neck, shoulders
    * Reduce age spots
    * Minimize blotchy skin coloring
    * Reduce acne and superficial scars from past injury
    * Extract blackheads and whiteheads
    * Oily Skin
    * Improve overall skin health

How Effective Is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is effective on diminishing and even getting rid of fine lines, enlarged pores, blackheads, age spots, hyperpigmentation (uneven skin tone), scars, stretch marks and dull skin. Women who've tried it (ourselves included) say a full microdermabrasion treatment makes the skin smoother and better. Actual results, however, depend on prior medical conditions, your skin's ability to recover and on who performed the procedure. It is not effective on severe skin imperfections because microdermabrasion cannot reach deeper layers of skin.

Is Microdermabrasion Good For Acne?

According to some dermatological studies, microdermabrasion is effective on mild acne. Microdermabrasion can also get rid of superficial acne scars and red marks.
