Skin Toning Benefits of DermaSweep


Advertisement

 

There are now dozens of treatments and procedures available to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and strengthen and tone the skin. One of the latest innovations in skin rejuvenation is DermaSweep, an advanced microdermabrasion system designed to not only buff away fine lines and wrinkles but also tone the skin by triggering the production of collagen. DermaSweep is currently available at several medical spas and aesthetic centers around the United States. Here’s a close look at how this procedure works and what it’s top anti-aging benefits are:

How DermaSweep Works

The DermaSweep system uses gentle abrasion with a vacuum device and wand designed to buff away the top layer of skin painlessly and efficiently. The wand is passed over the skin with light pressure to ‘sand’ down the skin and the dead skin cells are suctioned away with the vacuum device. The vacuum wand itself stimulates blood flow and clears up the pores, giving the skin a more refined texture and making it appear firmer and more toned.
 
DermaSweep is better than traditional microdermabrasion treatments because it uses a variable level vacuum pump to lift the skin slightly while removing the dead layer of skin. This process gives the skin a gentle massage that helps to keep it looking strong, youthful and also makes the skin more resilient. The system also makes use of the Epi-Infusion treatment, a topical solution designed for different skin. The Epi-Infusion treatment is delivered deep into the skin during the exfoliation process.
 
The vacuum pressure can be customized for each treatment to deliver varying levels of exfoliation. Most people see results immediately after the first treatment and even better results after a series of treatments.

Top Benefits of DermaSweep

DermaSweep can provide deep exfoliation for almost any skin type, and may even be coupled with a peel for better results. Some of the other key benefits of DermaSweep include:
  • Can reduce the effects of sun damage
  • Treats acne scars
  • Buffs away fine lines and wrinkles with ease
  • Stimulates blood flow
  • Clears up pores
  • Firms the epidermis
  • Triggers collagen production
  • Can revitalize dull skin
  • Can keep acne under control

Are You a Good Candidate for DermaSweep?

DermaSweep can treat a number of skin conditions and problems including:
  • Melasma
  • Fine lines
  • Early aging lines
  • Surgical scars
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Loose or sagging skin
  • Sun damaged skin
The DermaSweep procedure is relatively painless, but most people feel a slight tightness and tingling sensation from the deep exfoliation procedure. This is managed with the application of emollient-rich moisturizers and sunscreen, and the dermatologist or skincare professional may recommend a set of serums and other treatments that will help to strengthen and tone the skin even further after treatment. The most common effects of this procedure include smooth and glowing skin, a significant reduction of lines and scars, and healthier, more resilient looking skin.
