Medical Microdermabrasion: A Surprisingly Simple Way To Flawless Skin!

Sunday, 29 November 2009

Today I want to talk about a quick and easy mini-procedure to help rejuvenate your skin, lessen the signs of scaring, and remove fine lines and the effects of acne. So continue reading now as I describe for you how Medical Microdermabrasion (the lunchtime power peel), can help you look your best at every stage of life!

How Medical Microdermabrasion Is Performed?

With the use of small crystal like powder and vacuum pressure the top layer of dead skin (stratum corneum) is removed during treatment, while promoting the production of new cells in the deepest layer of skin.

Treatments last about 20 - 30 minutes if only the face is being treated, and can last up to an hour if the neck and upper chest are included. Courses of microdermabrasion consist of 4 - 8 treatments at 1 - 2 week intervals.

Is There Any Down Time?

Medical Microdermabrasion has been branded with the cosmetic nickname, the "lunch-time" peel, because it can be performed in a short period of time and patients can return immediately to their daily routine including applying makeup. Typically you will experience a slight irritation or wind-burnt sensation during treatment that can last for a few hours afterward. In addition, your skin usually takes on a pink hue that lasts an average for a day or two.

Consumer Beware...Not All Machines Are alike!

There are over a hundred different microdermabrasion machines that are available in the United States. These machines vary based on weight, the types of filters they use, what type of substance they use for sandblasting (some use baking soda or sodium chloride instead of crystals), the power of the machine, and its intended use (some are made for salons while some require a physicians license to operate).

If you are considering Microdermabrasion remember you get what you pay for. If a price sounds too good to be true, many times it is!

Body Focus System Weight Loss Success

I'm a 40 something year old guy that over the last 10 years has slowly but surely gained weight. I have never been the type of guy to diet, but after having to go for sleep apnea testing, starting medication to control my high blood pressure, and being 40 pounds overweight, found it was time to do something.

I went to a Body Focus System seminar to hear what they had to say and I was surprised. The Detox is what really got my attention. I had always wanted to try a detox, but did not like the thought of having only liquids or having to drink some crazy mixture that tasted like who knows what.

I decided to sign up and give this "diet" a try. I cannot tell you how happy I am that I did! Let me first tell you about the detox. I started with the fruit detox in August and from the first day there was more to eat than I ever expected. I always assumed a diet would be about eating food you don't like and trying to forget about how hungry you are. With the detox, there were days that I was eating a snack before I was even hungry. I lost over 7 pounds during the detox eating fruits that I like and not feeling hungry at all.
