Microdermabrasion Facials & Prices

What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a progressive, non-invasive treatment that propels natural mineral crystals onto the surface of the skin for gentle epidermal abrasion that reveals newer, healthier, younger looking skin.

How does the treatment work?
Microdermabrasion works in two ways:
Correction - The speed of the crystal flow causes an abrasive action that gently removes the surface layers of the skin, allowing smoother, fresher skin to emerge.

Stimulation - The vacuum action helps to stimulate microcirculation increasing the blood supply that provides nutrients needed for skin regeneration. It also stimulates formation of new collagen and elastin to improve skin texture and elasticity.

Is microdermabrasion painful?
The treatment is performed with little discomfort. At the most, sensitive clients might experience a slight sensation resembling a light sunburn. After treatment, the skin has a pink glow and you can resume your normal activities almost immediately. The procedure can be done during your lunch hour.

Is microdermabrasion safe?
Microdermabrasion offers a gentler alternative to more traumatic resurfacing treatments. It does not involve trauma or bleeding. The treatment is executed slowly and progressively, removing only superficial layers of the epidermis to reveal a youthful complexion and glow. Your therapist has total control and works under strict hygienic conditions, using sterile, disposable treatment nozzles to ensure your safety.

How long does it take?
Each treatment takes approximately 45 minutes.

How many treatments will I need?
Age and skin condition will determine the number of treatments required to achieve optimum effect. For most skin problems, a minimum of six treatments is recommended. Results in texture can be felt in one session. Results in appearance may range from one to three sessions. Closely spaced treatments, combined with maintenance sessions, will result in better skin quality.

Which skin problems can be treated?
This system gradually abrades epidermal cells to treat a vast range of skin problems:
 

some stretch marks

Can microdermabrasion be used on the body?
Virtually any area of the body can benefit from microdermabrasion. When used in exfoliation mode, it can be performed on the entire face, neck and neckline with a second sweep on any areas of hyperpigmentation or with textural irregularities.

Starting a Fitness Program

5 Tips to Help You Stick With It!

Although we all know the benefits of regular exercise, most American adults don't get enough physical activity, and over 25% of adults are not active at all. Here are some tips to help you start (and stick to) an exercise program:

1. Set Goals.
Set goals to monitor your progress. Your goals should be challenging, yet achievable.

2. Make Appointments to Exercise.
Schedule exercise appointments in your daily planner, and keep them.

3. Use the “5-Minute Compromise”.
On days when you do lose motivation, try to exercise for just 5 minutes. Chances are, you’ll feel great and want to continue.

4. Involve Friends and Family.
Find a “workout buddy” with whom you can exercise or chat about your progress. Plan fitness activities for the whole family.

5. Reward Yourself.
As you reach your goals, reward yourself. You deserve it!
