Microdermabrasion is a technique used to freshen the skin by removing the dead outer layer of facial skin. Microdermabrasion is successful as a treatment for sun damage and fine wrinkle due to. The plastic surgeon employs a device like a tiny sandblaster to spray fine crystals across the face, mixing very gentle abrasion with suction to remove the dead, outer layer of skin. Because this is mainly a rejuvenation technique, more than one treatment may be needed to reduce or remove fine wrinkles and unwanted pigmentation such as age spots or dark sun damage. Prices for the treatment vary (between $75 and $200 per treatment), but you can normally get a reduced price if you sign up for a treatment package.
