How Does Microdermabrasion Work?

It is an exfoliation process that works by removing the outermost layer of your skin using the tiny crystals that break up these cells that are worked into your skin using a handheld device with an abrasive surface to reveal the softer, smoother, and clear skin underneath. It also encourages the production of collagen that helps maintain your skin’s youth. Therefore, it is widely recognized as an incredible skin rejuvenation treatment with numerous other benefits and advantages.
