A healthy young looking skin is very important for both men and women. Men need to take some extra care as male skin is more prone to aging, wrinkles, fine lines, and sun damage.
Microdermabrasion for men is simple and relatively painless process which hardly takes any time, contrary to popular belief that the treatment is very painful and time consuming. The treatment can be preformed at the doctor’s office, salon, spa or even at home.

There are many reasons why men are more prone to skin trouble. Excessive smoking and drinking, sun exposure, working long hours and aging all result in skin damage. Plus shaving creams, pre-shave, and after-shave products contain various ingredients such as alcohol, menthol, mint, potassium, or sodium hydroxide, and camphor which make the skin irritable, ultimately resulting in swelling and damage.
Microdermabrasion helps in taking care of all these skin problems providing smooth and young skin.

Our skin has a top layer of dead, dry, and damaged cells which need care and maintenance so that the subsequent layers are healthier. That is exactly what microdermabraision does; the top layer of dead skin is removed promoting the production of new cells in the deepest layer of skin. The skin is sandblasted with aluminum oxide crystals through a rod-like device. In this whole process, the skin technicians control the suction and level of the blast.
