Improved Skin - Look Healthier and Younger
Microdermabrasion Buffalo
As we age, our skin's natural luster tends to fade. Sun exposure, pollution, the development of wrinkles and other factors can result in a tired appearance that often makes an individual look older than he or she actually is. In such cases, microdermabrasion - offered at our Buffalo practice, the Clinic of Facial Plastic Surgery in New York - may provide a solution. A non-surgical alternative to facial cosmetic surgery, microdermabrasion, like injectable treatments, provides a quick, safe, and effective way of revitalizing the skin. Though the results are not permanent, they are long-lasting, and as few as 5-10 treatments are often required to meet a patient's goals.

Microdermabrasion Treatment
Microdermabrasion is a process by which small micro crystals are applied to the skin to exfoliate dead or damaged skin cells. Removing this upper layer of damaged skin can reveal younger, healthier skin that is more vibrant and appealing, and over time, the process can actually promote collagen and elastin production so that the skin's natural processes continue to provide for a youthful appearance. This non-chemical, non-invasive procedure is ideal for patients with relatively minor cosmetic imperfections as well as those who are hesitant to undergo cosmetic surgery and are seeking an alternative means of reaching their aesthetic goals.
The treatment typically takes no more than 30 minutes and requires no recovery or downtime. For best results, anywhere from 5-10 treatments, in rare cases more, will be administered, spaced roughly 2-3 weeks apart. This allows time for the renewal of collagen and elastin production.
Risks and Benefits
The risks for microdermabrasion are minimal, as it is a non-invasive procedure. In some instances, redness or irritation may occur, though typically, these symptoms reside within an hour. The benefits of microdermabrasion are many: the treatment produces near-immediate results, requires no recovery time, can be performed in under an hour, and is completely safe. If you would like to refresh your image and bolster your self-confidence, microdermabrasion may be for you.
