When it comes to surgical treatments, it’s normal to feel scared and axious -.Pre-surgery anxiety is a real thing. However there are plentiful options for skin improvement and feature enhancement, without the need to go ‘under the knife’,
You don’t need surgery to fix skin imperfections or improve your skin’s appearance. Thanks to new techniques, non-invasive methods like microneedling and microdermabrasion offer remarkable results. These treatments not only enhance skin appearance but also improve its health by facilitating the injection of essential nutrients and minerals.
However, people often confuse these treatments with each other, which is why we’re here to spell out the differences:
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion exfoliates the surface of your skin with the help of a small device. This treatment is said to be ablative in nature, which means the outer skin is slowly and gradually abraded to make new skin resurface.
The device uses diamonds and crystals to deeply exfoliate the skin, taking off dead skin cells. At the same time, it uses suction through a vacuum to keep blood circulation going. What you see as a result is smoother, softer, fresh new skin.
Microdermabrasion is commonly used for large pores, ageing lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and even stretch marks. This treatment is suitable for most skin types, but not all. You should always consult a certified practitioner for the right guidance. The treatment is easy, fast, and there’s almost no downtime – your friends will wonder how you got that glow within the hour!
Microneedling
While microdermabrasion exfoliates, microneedling stimulates new skin growth by creating controlled injuries. This collagen induction therapy prompts the body to produce more collagen and elastin to heal the minute punctures, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Since microneedling targets skin health from within rather than scrubbing off the surface, it’s a non-ablative procedure. For enhanced results, it is often combined with chemical peels. The number of sessions needed for optimal results will be advised by your therapist.
The good news is that Simply Clinics based in Hammersmith, Southgate, and Uxbridge offers both microneedling and microdermabrasion treatments carried out by highly experienced practitioners.
