Anti Aging Benefits of Vibraderm


Advertisement

When you want to get rid of wrinkles, eliminate fine lines and achieve a healthier complexion, an exfoliating facial treatment can help to buff the skin smooth and give you a natural glow. Skin rejuvenation treatments such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels continue to be a popular non-surgical option for many people who want to freshen up their look. Vibraderm is another option for skin restoration, a device that provides deep skin exfoliation and may help boost collagen production. 

It’s an anti-aging treatment that may also increase the absorption of skincare products, allowing the skin to heal and restore itself naturally. If you’ve been looking for an alternative solution to microdermabrasion and other skin rejuvenation procedures, consider the following benefits of Vibraderm:

How Vibraderm Works

Vibraderm is different from microdermabrasion because there are no crystals or suction involved. The dead skin cells are removed using a stainless steel paddle that is passed over the skin to slowly take off the top layer. The paddles vibrate slowly enough to produce a ‘sandblasting’ effect without traumatizing the skin tissues or taking off too many layers in one session. The entire process is less abrasive than conventional microdermabrasion, but still capable of producing similar effects.
 
Vibraderm also prepares the skin for an intensive facial or chemical peel; the skin will readily absorb any topical products after the dull and lifeless cells on the top layer have been removed, which means you may achieve better results with other treatments immediately after the exfoliation.

Key Benefits of Vibraderm

Vibraderm uses sonic vibration technology to deliver results in a minimally-abrasive format. The procedure offers several anti aging benefits, and can be used on a variety of skin types and textures. Some of the key benefits of Vibraderm include:
 
  • Removing age spots – sun spots and pigmentation can be easily removed with a few Vibraderm sessions. The skin will need to be exfoliated and then grow back a few times in order to see results, but many people are able to reduce or eliminate superficial age spots solely with Vibradermabrasio
  • Getting rid of acne scars – acne scar tissue can be embedded in the skin for years, but a deep exfoliation treatment can help to remove the dead and damaged cells so that the skin becomes clearer.  
  • Reducing the effects of acne – if you have acne-prone skin, a non-invasive exfoliation treatment with Vibraderm can help to reduce the symptoms and effects of acne so that the skin can heal and restore itself naturally. Vibraderm can help reduce the risk of clogged pores on the surface of the skin, and buff away unhealthy cells.
  • Reducing the effects of melasma – many people with aging skin experience melasma which can be very difficult to cover up with makeup. Vibraderm can be used to buff away the top layer of skin affected by melasma to reveal the fresh and healthy layer underneath.
  • Reducing fine lines and wrinkles – perhaps one of the most attractive benefits of Vibraderm is its ability to buff away fine lines and wrinkles. Vibradermabrasion exfoliates deep within the skin’s surface to trigger collagen production, which in turn can plump up wrinkles and fine lines and create a smoother surface.
Vibraderm is currently available at medspas and cosmetic surgery centers around the country. Learn more about anti aging treatments and skin rejuvenation in our information guide, or consult with an anti-aging specialist in your area for information about Vibraderm.
