Microdermabrasion with a cream is a process that uses fine micro-crystals embedded in a skin rejuvenating cream to softly remove flawed and non-functional skin cells, oil deposits and debris through deeper than regular exfoliation, by polishing the top layer of skin either on your face or body. This promotes cellular renovation, rejuvenates, softens and regularizes the outmost layer of skin.

Reduce Acne Scars Through Skin Remodeling

Skin remodeling is the process that determines the removal or reduction of acne scars. The skin heals injuries quickly to prevent blood loss and infection. Scars are rapidly formed as a "collagen glue" deposit in an injured area to protect and strengthened it. In ideal skin healing, damaged skin is rapidly closed and the healed site is slowly reconstructed by eliminating the unnecessary collagen scar tissues and blending the skin area into the nearby skin. Scarred collagen is eliminated and replaced with new skin cells and invisible collagen fibers. The skin remodeling process may continue in an area for ten years.

When we are children the rate of remodeling is very high and scars are rapidly eliminated from damaged areas. But as we become adults, this rate slows down and small scars may persist for many years. One way to speed up the rate of remodeling is by causing a small amount of controlled skin harm with a needle, laser burning, microdermabrasion, or by other means, and then let the repair mechanisms rebuild the skin area. A second method is to use healing accelerators to promote the body's innate healing mechanisms aimed to obtain an even better final result.

Microdermabrasion creams include tiny or micro particles to "polish" the skin and gradually remove scars, dark or discolored skin tissues. The process has become a standard practice performed in various areas, from dermatologist and plastic surgery offices to some spas and high end aesthetician clinics.

A microdermabrasion procedure is recommended for your facial skin if you have had scarring due to nodules, cysts or other forms of acne. The treatment will remove the skin's top layer of dead cells and smooth out scarred tissues.

The method works specially well for those who that have suffered disfiguring acne conditions. Microdermabrasion smoothes the surface of the skin and reduces skin blemishes. If the product you use contains not only micro-crystals but also a substance that speeds skin rejuvenation, then new collagen and glycosaminoglycans will build up quickly and at the right pace and those will restore your healthy skin glow and skin resilience.

Microdermabrasion of acne scars is an option for people whose severe breakouts result in facial scars. However it will not be useful for pitted or ice-pick acne scars , because they are very deeply imbedded in the skin.

It is important to remember that microdermabrasion is not a good choice for individuals with the following conditions: warts, rosacea, eczema, herpes, lupus, and diabetes.
