Resurfacing Skin Care Kit - Active

Q: How do you take care of your skin after microdermabrasion?

After care is very important in the days following a microdermabrasion facial. Make sure your new skin is moisturised regularly - in the week following a treatment like this, your skin will be prone to drying out. You can use an anti-inflammatory cream or cooling gel directly after the treatment to soothe any tenderness. Use a gentle cleanser when washing your face, treat your skin with tender care, using cool or lukewarm water. Try your best to avoid scratching at all or touching the new skin too much - it will be sensitive but it will renew of its own accord with time. We recommend using the Essentials Deep Hydration Moisture Cream and the Perfect Complexion SPF50 sunscreen.

Q: Do dermatologists recommend microdermabrasion?

Yes. Most skin types will benefit from a microdermabrasion treatment. It is best to speak to someone experienced about your skin, especially if it has been problematic or going through any changes. For example, mild cases of acne may benefit from this kind of procedure, but for more severe cases, the skin could be left more irritated. At home kits are also great to use as the concentration of active ingredients are much lower than the products a dermatologist or other trained professional will use. A microdermabrasion treatment for sun spots, pigmentation or chronic breakouts can be treated with La Clinica products. The most obvious difference between at home and professional microdermabrasion facials is the devices used by the dermatologist will most likely have a bit more leverage when it comes to getting a deeper exfoliation.

How to use the Resurfacing Kit

What are the benefits of microdermabrasion?

A microdermabrasion facial will ultimately leave your skin looking fresher and smoother. The process will diminish wrinkles, minimise pores, and fine lines and bring out a brighter tone in your skin. Microdermabrasion treatments can also see a reduction of some age spots, pigmentation, and scarring. It will unclog pores and reduce breakouts and congestion in the deeper layers of skin. You can also use microdermabrasion for sun damage that has occurred from UV exposure.

Does microdermabrasion hurt?

No. The procedure or process shouldn’t hurt although it may be slightly uncomfortable and there may be a small amount of redness and a feeling of tenderness immediately after the microdermabrasion treatment.

The safe but slightly abrasive nature of the product and techniques used to stimulate collagen production to plump up and renew skin cells. Although it is rare, if overdone, microdermabrasion can damage your skin, causing some sensitivity and inflammation. When using the Gly C Refine Microdermabrasion Scrub, we recommend using light, circular motions.

What are microdermabrasion treatments good for?

The basic definition of microdermabrasion is ‘light physical exfoliation’. It is a great procedure or treatment to have when your skin needs a really good deep clean. Removing the uppermost layers of skin allows the body to replace the skin cells lost, with newer healthier ones. It stimulated blood flow meaning your skin’s elasticity is improved making your skin smoother to touch.

How long do the effects of microdermabrasion last?

Approximately 2 - 4 weeks. Our skin typically regenerates at intervals of about a month. Microdermabrasion treatments are only temporary and will need to be repeated once or twice a month for you to see the results you want. For continued improvement for acne-prone skin, a block of 12 treatments is usually recommended as the intensity can be varied depending on progress.
