MICRODERM ABRASION JACKSONVILLE

Microderm-abrasion for Jacksonville, Orange Park, Fleming Island, Middleburg, Green Cove Springs and St. Augustine residents is an effective skin rejuvenation treatment. At Park Avenue Dermatology, we offer microderm abrasion packages that require less down time than alaser photo facial or chemical peel. We understand that having to take time off work may not be a good answer for you. This non-invasive dermatologic procedure removes dead layers of skin allowing new, revitalized facial skin to grow more quickly in its place. Your dermatologist may recommend microderm abrasion in conjunction with other types of facial treatments.

A microderm procedure does not require an anesthetic and is considered to be less painful than most chemical peels or IPL laser treatments. The application of multiple exfoliating treatments using microdermabrasion can help:

• Soften the Signs of Aging
• Improve Skin Color and Tone
• Remove Small Acne Scars
• Reduce Enlarged Pores
• Repair Damage from Sun Exposure
• Remove Dark Skin Spots
• Promote Skin Remodeling

Microderm-abrasion is performed by applying a stream of fine crystals across the skin which are removed using a gentle vacuum. Although microderm treatments can reduce problems associated with mild acne cases, acne scarring, clogged or enlarged pores, if you are taking the acne medication Accutane, be sure to tell your doctor or microderm technician. In most cases, dermatologists do not recommend the use of microdermabrasion, as the drug Isotretinoin can cause more permanent scaring.
