How Microdermabrasion Cream Work

Microdermabrasion with a cream is a process that involves fine micro-crystals embedded in a skin regenerating cream to softly remove damaged and non-functional skin cells, oil deposits and debris through deeper than normal exfoliation, by polishing the superior layer of skin either on your face or body. This stimulates cellular renovation, rejuvenates, softens and regularizes the outmost layer of skin.

Skin Remodeling is the Key to Acne Scar Reduction

Skin remodeling is the process that determines the removal or reduction of acne scars. The skin heals wounds quickly to avoid blood loss and infection. Scars are rapidly formed as a "collagen glue" deposit in an injured area to protect and strengthened it. In ideal skin healing, damaged skin is quickly closed and the healed site is calmly reconstructed by eliminating the unnecessary collagen scar tissues and blending the skin patch into the surrounding skin. Scarred collagen is eliminated and replaced with new skin cells and invisible collagen fibers. The skin remodeling process can continue in an area for ten years.

When we are children the rate of remodeling is very elevated and scars are quickly eliminated from damaged areas. But as we become adults, this rate diminishes and small scars may persist for many years. One way to speed up the rate of remodeling is by inducing a small amount of controlled skin damage with microdermabrasion, a needle, laser burning, or by other means, and then let the repair mechanisms rebuild the skin patch. A second way is to use healing accelerators to increase the body's innate healing mechanisms aimed to obtain an even better final result.

Microdermabrasion creams use tiny or micro particles to "polish" the skin and slowly remove scars, dark or discolored skin tissues. The procedure has become a standard practice performed in a variety of settings from dermatologist and plastic surgery offices to some spas and high end aesthetician clinics.

A microdermabrasion approach is recommended for your facial skin if you have had scarring due to nodules, cysts or other forms of acne. The treatment will remove the skin's top layer of dead cells and smooth out scarred tissues.

The method works especially well for those who that have suffered disfiguring acne conditions. Microdermabrasion smoothes the surface of the skin and minimizes skin imperfections. If the cream you use includes not only micro-crystals but also a substance that speeds skin rejuvenation, then new collagen and glycosaminoglycans will build up quickly and at the right pace and those will restore your healthy skin glow and skin resilience.

Microdermabrasion of acne scars is an alternative for people whose severe breakouts leave facial scars. However it will not work on pitted or ice-pick acne scars , because they are very deeply imbedded in the skin.

It is important to remember that microdermabrasion is not a wise choice for individuals with the following conditions: lupus, herpes, rosacea, eczema, warts, and diabetes.
