Microderm Abrasion Cream
You're probably familiar with skin exfoliation. A Microderm Abrasion cream acts to gently slough off dead epidermal layers. When we're younger, our bodies normally shed dead cells which are replaced with new cells. As we age, this process slows and the epidermis has increasing problems regenrating. Exfoliation cleans and smooths skin and removes dead layers aloowing for renewed growth.
Microderm Abrasion creams have fine crystals that gently polish and allow for faster cell development. Acne scar removal relies on not only increasing and improving cell membranes and structure, it requires healthy cell growth. Many Microderm Abrasion creams are formulated with active ingredients that moisturize and hydrate while killing bacteria-laden pores - thus, accelerating healthy and smooth skin.

Low level laser treatments have been clinically proven to rejuvenate skin. The SoftLight Laser from Beuer is one of the most effective lasers to treat acne, scars, burns and for light skin resurfacing. The Beuer emits a low-level concentrated laser that stimulates new cell growth. With consistant and disciplined use, low-level lasers can help smooth and clear your complexion. A skin laser can help remove scars, smooth the complexion and even tone.
Skin Resurfacing
Though more expensive, involved and painful, skin resurfacing can help eliminate acne scars. Generally, two methodologies are used. One, abrasives resurface by "sanding" the epidermis. Care should be given to properly treat the skin after therapy, and you will have some redness and tenderness. Chemical peels are also common. Using a chemical complex formulated for peels, skin is removed in several sessions. For severe acne scars, several treatments many be necessary. Consult your dermatologist if you feel skin resurfacing is necessary for a consultation. |
