Taking that a step further, we acknowledge that the health of the "whole" person is needed to ensure the long lasting beauty and health of one's skin.
What is microdermabrasion?
Originally developed in Italy, the microdermabrasion process is highly acclaimed and has been widely used in Europe for roughly the past 20 years. In late ’96 it finally made it’s way to the states when the FDA gave its approval for this revolutionary skin treatment. Microdermabrasion works by removing the top layer of the epidermis, exposing the amazingly smooth, fresh new skin from underneath. It has been proven in studies to improve skin structure at both the epidermal and dermal levels. Research also shows that it thickens the skin (thicker skin is less likely to wrinkle), stimulates collagen and elastin growth in the deeper layers, and over time, enables your skin to heal existing sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, shrink pores and more. It’s non-invasive so it has no down time-unlike painful chemical and laser peels (that have been known to THIN the skin) Which is, in part, why it has been called the "lunchtime peel". Many people get them on their lunch breaks and return to work with their co-workers none the wiser! Fortunately, it’s safe for all types and pigments of skin. Because of it’s effectiveness for so many skin conditions it has grown in popularity at an astounding rate. Today, it's the number one non-surgical cosmetic procedure in the U.S., improving the quality of skin for millions of women every year.

In what ways can microdermx™ help my skin? Generally it helps by evening out the tone and making skin much more smooth and vibrant. Skin being “brighter” and a decreased pore size has also been consistently reportedly from our customers.

I have very sensitive skin. Can I use Microdermx ™?
Yes, it was formulated for people with sensitive skin. It will not irritate because it does not contain any of these substances that typically cause irritations: fillers, paraben, palmitate, phenoxyethanol, paraffin, propylene glycol, mineral oil, formaldehyde, myristate, SLS, ALS, artificial color and fragrance. It's suitable for all skin colors/types. There are no harmful side effects or discomfort from the use of it.
How long will it take before I see a big changein my skin?
If done properly, you will feel and see smoother, softer glowing skin the very first use. But results for the larger "issues" (scars, wrinkles) will come with multiple treatments. Some have seen their lines and scars improve 50% after a week, and others have seen improvement 3 weeks to several months. It, of course, partially depends on the depth of the issues. To maximize results, we recommend that you apply Balance of Nature Antioxidant Serum after each treatment, and each morning and night. These products complement each other. They have a remarkable “synergy” that yields better and faster results.
Will Microdermx™ help with dark spots and uneven skin tones?
Yes, keeping in mind it's not an over-night fix. This system works by stimulating your body’s ability to heal itself. By removing the damaged top layers skin you encourage and quicken the growth of new skin from underneath that eventually replaces the patterns of the old skin. The more you use it, the better the results.
Can all skin types use Microdermx™?
Yes, it’s safe for all types and pigments of skin.
Should I wear sun-screen after using Microdermx
Yes, if possible it’s best to avoid the sun for the first 24 hours after treatment. If that’s not possible using a sun-screen with 30 SPF is a very good idea. Remember that you are removing the very top layer of epidermis, which normally acts as a layer of natural sunblock. Look for sunscreens for sensitive skin with as natural ingredients as possible. Physical sun blockers such as titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide rather than the chemical versions have been debated to be safer/less toxic. Nikkel Holistic Skin Care will soon be formulating a sunscreen especially for microdermabraded skin.
Please note that when we do hear of "breakouts" it’s typically a result of customers putting their own (and often times-chemical laden) moisturizers on after the microdermabrasion treatment rather than the ones we recommend.
