shutterstock_139313522-300x212Microdermabrasion has become a popular cosmetic procedure over the years. Not only is it safe and simple, but it offers wonderful results. Like anycosmetic procedure, it’s important that you take the time and care to look after your skin pre and post procedure to ensure you get the best results and minimise any side effects.

During microdermabrasion, up to 25 microns of the top surface of your skin can be exfoliated. This surface is called the stratum corneum. This layer is made up of dead skin cells and is there to protect your living skin cells.

After completing treatment, anything you put on your skin will be absorbed very quickly as a result of that original layer of skin not being there.
