Although a great diet, plenty of water, and daily exercise help stars like Gwyneth Paltrow and Drew Barrymore to be shining and radiant, microdermabrasion sessions likely contribute to their pristine skin.
Many Hollywood celebrities have found that the microdermabrasion sand blasts leave the skin smooth, soft and glowing – picture perfect.

Microdermabrasion is not new. It has a long proven track record as a cosmetic treatment that works. No gimmicks. The gentle abrasion and exfoliation by microdermabrasion smoothes out wrinkles and fine lines, reduces the appearance of scars, and brightens skin tone.
But it’s the affordability of microdermabrasion that is a key factor behind its popularity and why it brings customers in droves to spas and skin care specialists. Microdermabrasion sessions, on the average, cost half of what a Restylane injection costs, and can address several skin conditions at a time. That’s not what you get from a wrinkle filler or botox injection. By removing a top layer of skin, microdermabrasion stimulates the body to increase cell turnover and to produce collagen. The exfoliation can remove light scars and acne symptoms.
The fine crystal blast from microdermabrasion allows for rapid recovery and there’s virtually non-existent downtime. Your likely to find the treatment soothing, and not painful as you would potentially experience with a laser skin resurfacing treatment.
