How To Use Your Home Microdermabrasion Kit
Although there are literally dozens of treatments available today for just about every skin condition there is, microdermabrasion still remains quite popular. The reason for this is partly to do with the ease with which consumers can experience microdermabrasion not only in professional spas but also in the comfort of their own homes thanks to the sale of home kits and creams. These microdermabrasion home kits can cost anywhere between $20- 300 and are sold in most health & beauty stores that can be found in any mall across the country. Although such kits can be useful in exfoliating the skin it’s important not to be under any illusion that such kits can get you the same results as professional microdermabrasion treatments. Just because it’s called a microdermabrasion kit that does not mean it’s in any substantial way the same as professional treatment. Before spending your money on false promises and unrealistic expectations, make sure you know the difference between real microdermabrasion and what is sold as home microdermabrasion kits.
Microdermabrasion is in essence an advanced form of exfoliation. That means it removes the dead skin cells from the surface of the face or body, thus encouraging the production of fresh new cells at a faster rate, which over time creates a more vibrant skin tone as well as reducing the visibility of wrinkles, minor blemishes, scars etc. Traditionally the microdermabrasion procedure has relied on the use of abrasive crystals to perform the exfoliation process. Now, what the makers of microdermabrasion home kits have done is simply make up skin creams containing a few beneficial ingredients like vitamins and added the same crystals used in professional microdermabrasion. This is the great selling point that home kit makers exploit. What consumers need to understand however, is that the effectiveness of professional microdermabrasion relies not so much on the use of crystals, but the rather the specific way in which they are used. Once this is understood it becomes clear that many of the claims made by home kit makers are patently false.
Receiving treatment at a spa or doctors office differs in two basic and important ways to using a home kit. Firstly, professional treatment makes no use of creams, whereas in home kits creams are often the most essential element and advertised as containing the ‘magic ingredients’ that will fix your skin. This is misleading for a number of reasons. While it’s true that many creams contain aluminum oxide crystals which are the same as what is used with professional machines, it’s not so much the substance that is important as it is the method of delivery. Professional treatment delivers the crystals to the skin at a high speed and it is this that causes exfoliation. With home kits you are restricted to rubbing the cream into your face which is not nearly as effective and sometimes even leads to complications.
Secondly, there is no cream or any moist substance used in professional treatment. The crystals are delivered to a dry face. This is important because a basic component of treatment is the extracting of spent crystals along with dead skin cells away from the surface of the skin. With home kits there is no such option and the only way to remove the crystals is through washing the face which is nowhere near as effective as an air powder pump in a closed circuit system. In fact a common complaint about home creams is that they are oily and difficult to wash of. This is more than an inconvenience as in some cases it is the cream combined with the scrubbing that lodges these tiny abrasive crystals into the skin pores which causes irritation and spots.
Although it should be absolutely clear that home kits cant give you the same results as pro treatment when it comes to specific problems like acne, acne scars, sun damage etc. that doesn’t mean that home kits are all together useless. On the contrary it is highly recommended to make use of the kits on a regular basis as part of a general skin maintenance program. However, it would be more accurate to market such kits simply as home exfoliation kits that cannot get rid of acne scars but with regular prolonged use will improve the overall appearance of skin and possibly reduce slightly very fine lines and wrinkles.
