Overview of

Microdermabrasion

in Thailand

The goal of microdermabrasion (MDA) is to remove dead skin from the face in order to promote the growth of healthy skin.

Similar to the workings of a fine sandblaster, hospitals use a device that sprays sterilized ultra-fine aluminum oxide crystals over the face, along with suctioning off the old and dead skin cells. Skin cells are stimulated to produce new layers of skin when this old layer is gently removed.

It is a completely painless and noninvasive procedure.

Goals of

Microdermabrasion

The following conditions can be treated with microdermabrasion:

  • Hyperpigmentation and scarring from acne
  • Uneven skin or large pores
  • Melasma
  • Stretch marks
  • Wrinkles
  • Enhancing the appearance of your skin and rejuvenating it

Pros and cons of

Microdermabrasion

Pros

  • A convenient and safe treatment for the skin. In a professional setting, results can be achieved rapidly, but progress can also be achieved at home gradually.
  • Microdermabrasion generally does not cause any side effects.
  • Treatment sessions do not require any recovery time.
  • Most appointments last less than 30 minutes, and even the longest sessions are generally short.
  • Microdermabrasion is a popular choice that is highly effective in reducing and removing the appearance of stretch marks caused by pregnancy or weight gain.

Cons

  • Costs can be high, ranging between $233 and $450 for a single treatment.
  • To observe significant results, patients normally need to go through repeated sessions over a lengthy treatment timeline.
  • Microdermabrasion works well for tiny surface wrinkles, but not effective against more serious wrinkles that appear naturally due to aging.
  • Many home microdermabrasion products are not effective in combating the scars caused by acne.
  • Skin can become dry and oversensitive to sun exposure. 
  • In some very rare cases, some patients experience bruising or skin discoloration that lasts a lifetime due to mishandling of the vacuum device on your skin by inexperienced aestheticians. Make sure to seek your treatment from certified healthcare providers.

How it works:

Microdermabrasion

  1. A skin cream is applied five to ten minutes before the treatment begins after the skin has been thoroughly cleansed.
  2. A spray of aluminum oxide crystals is applied to the area that needs to be treated.
  3. During this treatment, the treated area is abraded gently and suctioned for 15-30 minutes.
  4. This is followed by another application of a cream that stimulates the production of new skin cells in order to produce healthy skin, lighten hyperpigmented areas, and reduce the appearance of scars.

Preparation before

Microdermabrasion

Pre - treatment

1 week prior to treatment, avoid getting under the sun, putting tanning creams on your skin, and going for waxing. For 3 days before your Microdermabrasion appointment, you should stay away from using any exfoliating creams and mask treatments on your skin. Ensure your face is clean and makeup-free before the procedure.

Recovery after

Microdermabrasion

Post - treatment

  • Make sure you are not exposed to sunlight. Keep your face protected with sunscreen every day.
  • The day before and the day after treatment should be free of creams and cosmetics, especially retinols and AHAs.
  • There may be some redness at the treated site for 24 hours following the procedure, but it usually diminishes over time.
  • Optimal results are achieved by undergoing 8-10 sessions every 1-2 weeks.

FAQs:

Microdermabrasion

Is microdermabrasion suitable for me?
Ages 12 to 65+ can use MDA without any concerns for their skin type. Both men and women can benefit from this treatment. This is the perfect option for busy people who need a treatment they can schedule over their lunch hour.


What are microdermabrasion treatments good for?
Microdermabrasion is effective in preventing and correcting the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, unsightly scars from acne, pigmentation caused by natural aging and over-exposure to sun. Other than that, people with uneven skin tone or those suffering from acne problems, oily or dull looking skin may also benefit from this treatment.


How often can I have microdermabrasion?
Your doctor will advise the ideal frequency for subsequent microdermabrasion sessions based on your individual skin type. In general, patients could come back every 10-14 days for reparative treatments. You can receive lighter treatments after an interval of seven days apart, and we also recommend a maintenance session every four weeks.

Natural cell turnover occurs every 28 days. During the treatment, the skin’s protective layer (stratum corneum) is removed on purpose to send the basal skin layer into a state of shock, thereby quickly producing more daughter cells through replication.

As a result of this rapid cell proliferation, the thickness of the skin layers will be increased and collagen and elastin production will be boosted.
