Acne microdermabrasion is just one of the many excellent non-surgical treatments offered by Advance Laser Skin Clinics, Chicago. Acne microdermabrasion scar removal is an option for people whose severe breakouts leave scars on their faces. However the treatment will not work on acne scars that are very deeply imbedded in the skin; it is for normal scars that are not too deep, but are closer to the outer layer of skin. It’s important to note that acne microdermabrasion is not a good choice for those individuals with the following skin conditions: rosacea, herpes, warts, eczema or lupus. Other conditions may also influence the safety of the treatment and the guidance of a dermatologist can help determine what is best for the patient.
Acne microdermabrasion actively promotes new skin cell production in the deepest layer of the skin as it clears dull and congested skin. The procedure takes about 30 minutes and maximum results are achieved between 4 to 12 visits, depending on the severity of the damage that has been caused on the skin in the area. When treated, the skin around the acne dermabrasion area will be slightly pink for a couple of weeks afterward. People find the skin from acne dermabrasion to be tight for the first 24-48 hours. One’s skin may feel like a mild sunburn or windburn, but any further pain is uncommon. Using a good moisturizer along with a high SPF will help soothe the skin after the microdermabrasion acne scars treatment. Also, some peeling and light crusting may be expected in the area.
No anesthesia is needed for the procedure, since it is non-invasive and patients can drive home right after. Acne microdermabrasion treatment is a good option for those who wish to unclog pores and reduce fine acne scarring. For perfect results, proper maintenance will, however, be required.
The dermabrasion acne treatment products contain soothing ingredients that make them suitable for daily use in acne control. Following your acne microdermabrasion treatment at Advance Laser Skin Clinics, you will be recommended various after-care techniques. Like most of the Advance laser Skin’s non-invasive treatments, there is no downtime. It is also recommended you avoid exposing the treated area to the sun for at least 24 hours. Also, because the outer layer of your skin has been exfoliated, the treated area will be sensitive to hot water and sweat for the first day.
