Microdermabrasion is an effective way to reduce the appearance of many types of superficial scars. As the wand passes over affected areas of the epidermis, it removes dead cells, unclogs pores, and helps the skin reclaim its youthful vitality and aesthetics.
The therapy tends to work better on certain types of scarring than others. For instance, clinical experience shows that it is highly effective for depressed scars, which create craters on the skin’s surface. It is not suitable for ice pick scars, a specific type of blemish that leaves narrow but deep impressions.
Microdermabrasion may also help avoid recurrent bouts of scar-causing cystic acne. Because it removes the outermost layer of skin and sebum, it prevents breakout-causing oil from getting trapped in the pores. Licensed aestheticians at the Baltic Beauty Centre can advise you on the best treatment options in this situation.
