Take Care Of Your Winter Skin Fall is here and winter will follow. For many of us that means tired pale winter skin. The good news is you can rid yourself of that pale winter skin right at home. Take Care Of Your Winter Skin!
Getting rid of that dead layer of skin is usually referred to as micro-dermabrasion which simply means sanding the skin to refinish the epidermis. micro-dermabrasion can help repair the damage from sun exposure, and the effects of aging. It has been known to reduce crows feet, fine lines, and age spots.
Micro-dermabrasion is accomplished with microscopic particles usually consisting of aluminum oxide crystals and magnesium. The process exfoliates the skin removing dead skin, resulting in a more even textured complexion and a much brighter complexion.
One treatment will show significant results but six months of treatments will be really impressive removing fine lines, acne scars, and even uneven pigment. If you have sensative skin this process is not recommended.
This treatment has been available from dermatologists and aestheticians for many years. The cost per treatment by a professional is around $150.00. The good news is you can now accomplish this at home.
Micro-dermabrasion done at home will refresh the skin and it won't leave your pocket book drained. However you must realize that the home treatments are not as effective as the professional treatments because you don't have the same powerful equipment to accomplish the job.
Home treatments are available with diamond shaped crystals or round shaped crystals. Diamond shaped crystals do a deeper exfoliation than you the round shaped crystals. To achieve the results home treatments must be done 2-3 times a week, compared to the once a month professional treatment.
When you first begin your Micro-dermabrasion treatments start slow and be sure not to over irritate the skin initially. Using the tips of your fingers gently massage the cream in a circular pattern for about one minute covering the entire face except for eyes and mouth area. Work the skin until it reaches a slight pink tone. If you have acne areas work around these, do not irritate them as you may cause scaring.
When you've completed your exfoliating, rinse your face, then apply a nice thick layer of moisturiser. Do not do this treatment daily because if you do you'll be removing the protective layer of skin constantly and it will never get a chance to regenerate.
There are several products on the market for the Home User. I cannot endorse or recommend any products, but I have provided a few links here so you can check out some of the available products and additional information on micro-dermabrasion
Give your skin the attention it deserves. Its yours forever!
