    Getting a Vibrant Complexion with Microdermabrasion

    0

    The skin is made up of two layers: the dermis and epidermis.   The epidermis is also referred to as the stratum corneum.  The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the epidermis, consisting of dead cells.  The purpose of the stratum corneum is to form a barrier to protect underlying tissue from infection, dehydration, chemicals and mechanical stress.   In general, the stratum corneum contains 15 to 20 layers of dead cells.  It’s important to your skin’s health to remove this excess dead skin so your skin can absorb the skin care products you’re using.   The best way to get rid of dead skin without being too invasive and without having any down time is Microdermabrasion.


    Microdermabrasion may be performed to decrease the appearance of superficial hyperpigmentation or photo-damage, to diminish fine lines, wrinkles, and shallow acne scars, and to remove dead skin.  Removing the dead skin will aid in the penetration of skin care products by up to 50% and make-up will go on much more smoothly.   In addition to eliminating old cells, this process eliminates damaged and contaminated cells that carry pollutants and micro-organisms from the environment.

    Imagine a very fine sand blaster and you’ll get a picture of how microdermabrasion works. It uses micro-particles, or a diamond-tipped wand, to slough off the top layer (epidermis) of your skin and stimulate new skin growth.  This technique also helps to thicken your collagen, which results in a younger looking complexion.   Collagen is a protein in your skin that’s abundant when you’re a child and makes skin appear taut and smooth.  Collagen production declines as we age, resulting in looser, uneven skin.

    At The Spa at Ethos, we recommend doing a series of 5 treatments for best results.  Our Skin Care Therapists can help get you on your way to a more vibrant complexion. For more information about Microdermabrasion call the Spa at 201.251-4500 and ask to speak to our Spa Director, Denise Wekarski or review our spa menu for packaging and pricing.
