Microdermabrasion is used to treat several types of skin problems including acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, discoloration, and sun damage. The results are clearer, smoother, and younger-looking skin.

Microdermabrasion is often performed in a clinic or spa. It is highly effective in treating most skin conditions but can be quite costly and also carry some risk. Although microdermabrasion is one of the safest skin care treatments around, risks include perforation, infection, bleeding and discoloration. The good news is you can now treat your skin with home microdermabrasion kits for a fraction of the cost and risk. These kits are designed for use at home and so are easy to apply.

The main actions of microdermabrasion are to get rid of dead skin cells, cleanse the skin's pores, and promote the rebuilding of new skin cells in the skin. Basically, microdermabrasion uses exfoliation to accomplish all these tasks.

Skin sheds occasionally, but in some cases, skin cell turnover is slow and dead skin cells accumulate. This makes your skin appear patchy and dull. Microdermabrasion acts to slough off dead skin cells to reveal the smoother and healthier skin underneath. Microdermabrasion also sloughs off raised scars and reduce their depth so that they are less visible.

When excess sebum and bacteria accumulate on the skin, your skin's pores become clogged. As a result, they become irritated, red, itchy, and inflamed. When the affected areas erupt, scars form and your complexion turns dull, oily/dry, and full of bumps. What microdermabrasion does is unclog those pores so your skin can "breath" and return to its healthy state.

Finally, microdermabrasion stimulates healthy blood circulation. When you have healthy blood circulation, oxygen and nutrients are able to reach your skin effectively. This means your skin will be able to heal properly so that scars don't form.

These are only the common actions of the typical microdermabrasion treatment. There are actually home microdermabrasion products like ZENMED containing special ingredients that treat and prevent certain skin conditions as well as maintain healthy, youthful skin. For example, the ZENMED Renewing Serum contains alpha-hydroxy acids, which are natural exfoliating agents deriving from fruits. These agents can remove the outer layer of the skin that has become dull and inflamed without the harshness. The serum is used alongside a skin care system to maintain healthy skin and prevent unwanted skin problems.

Another skin care solution is the Microdermabrasion Complex, which also gives that exfoliating effect, except this time it is used to specifically treat stubborn scars. It uses micro-spheres to smoothen out skin, and because these are very tiny beads, they do not irritate the skin. What these micro-spheres do is gradually remove jagged bumps on the skin, much like sanding wood for a smoother surface but with no harshness.

Find microdermabrasion products that can be applied to both the face and body, as body acne is common. There are a variety of skin care systems where you are able to use the product on both the face and body.
