Difference between Microdermabrasion and Perfecting Plant peels
Microdermabrasion and perfecting Plant Peels are both methods of exfoliation they work in different ways. Microdermabrasion is like SHEDDING YOUR WINTER SKIN. It is a mechanical way of removing the dead skin layer (Stratum corneum.) Peels provide chemical exfoliation by breaking down the bond (like glue) that holds the stratum corneum together which speeds up the natural exfoliation process. Peels are more effective at treating acne (bacteria) and pigment discoloration, because it absorbs into the skin.
Microderm Alternative AVEDA skin resurfacing Amazing botannical alternative to microderm abrasions. Tormaline refining treatment reveals a truly radiant complexion and smoother skin without the irritation or redness. With no downtime, you may wear makup the same day. $85
Microdermabrasion is very aggressive (photos). The process uses crystals that exfoliate the top layer of your skin revealing younger skin cells which grows rapidly. Your face will feel wind burnt the rest of the day. No Sauna’s, tanning, or aerobic activity for 2 days. If you feel you are sweating get a cool towel and put on your face you need to keep cool, sweat will feel like someone poured glycolic acid on your face and can cause discolorations to the skin area. In two weeks you will notice firmer skin with a radiant glow. It’s like a new born baby’s skin but grows in more resilient. The depth of wrinkles, acne scars, and sun spots are reduced dramatically with a series of treatments. We usually recommends 6 treatments, once a week for 6 weeks. After your microdermabrasion no makeup for 24 hours, no tanning, and no Retin-A, Differin/Accutane one week before or after. We usually recommend extending the Microdermabrasion to the neck to tone the skin. Microdermabrasions are great for people with oily skin, reduces the oil and skin grows in normal! Face only $90 Face and neck $105
Perfecting Plant Peel Powered by plants, 30% glycolic peel naturally and without the redness and irritation. Can be performed as a 30 minute treatment or added onto any of our signature treatments. $55 or added onto other treatments $45 (no makeup for 4 hours after)
Recommends 5 treatments $225 once a week or add to any facial. Use one of three different intensifiers, Acne Prone (to clear up active acne), Uneven Skin Tone (lifts pink out of acne scars & sun spots), Anti-Aging (diminishes wrinkles). It is a gradual process and your skin will feel silky soft. It is recommended to use vitamin A, C, and E after each treatment. Your skin will crave vitamin C which is L-Ascorbic Acid (Anti-aging) Vitamin A is for fine lines and wrinkles, Vitamin E is for softening.
