Overview
The procedure
Crystal Clear Microdermabrasion
Mechanical exfoliation treatment for skin renewal
Crystal Clear Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive superficial exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin and helps renew the complexion.
What is Crystal Clear Microdermabrasion
This is an exfoliation treatment performed using microcrystals. Through a specialised device, the microcrystals are projected onto the skin surface while gentle suction is simultaneously applied, removing dead skin cells and improving the texture of the skin.
The treatment is mainly applied to the face and can be performed either as a standalone session or as a preparation stage before other treatments, as it improves the absorption of active ingredients.
How the Treatment is Performed
The session begins with cleansing of the skin and evaluation of the skin condition. This is followed by the microdermabrasion treatment on the face, aiming for even exfoliation and improvement of skin texture.
After the treatment, soothing and hydrating products are applied, along with sun protection.
