Acne affects people of
all age groups- be it a teen-ager, or an adult person. So, different
people use different types of treatment options to clear acne. One
popular acne treatment is Microdermabrasion or Microderm.
With Microdermabrasion you can not only
treat your acne, but also the related disorders like hyper
pigmentation, rough skin and scars. But technology does not come
alone. It comes along with various good and bad things. The good
thing here is- it cures several skin disorders, especially acne, but
the bad thing is- it can even aggravate your acne suffering, if
certain things are not cared for.
Also, the problems after
Microdermabrasion do not occur always. Proper planning before the
treatment and guidance from a good doctor will certainly help you to
do away with these small issues. Consider the following things before
opting for Microdermabrasion.
First of all know
your skin type. Now match your skin type with the different types of
microdermabrashion treatments available. Under this treatment there
are certain benchmarks, against which you can decide the type of
treatment that would suit you. Predominantly, microdermabrashion
treatment is perfect for people who have oily skin. The reason being,
oily skin is able to tolerate this treatment for longer durations as
the constant production of oil provides a good base to the
medications.
After you are done with your microderm
treatment, remove all the comedones from the skin. Comedones are oil
accumulates that harden over the time. They are basically cellular
wastes that have been trapped in the open pores of the skin. The
problem here is that the micro-dermabrasion treatment removes the
upper dead layers of the skin. By doing this, the comedones are
exposed to the environment. And if they remain untreated they inflame
to take a form of acne. Therefore immediately after the
microdermabraion treatment, it is important to treat the comedones
too.
Take care of your skin after
micro-dermabrasion is done. The reason being that after the
treatment, your skin gets exposed to several bacteria’s in the
environment which can cause acne. So, regularly moisturize the skin
to protect it from acne. The moisturizer should be free from glycol
or retinol because the skin generally tends to become sensitive after
a micro dermabrashion treatment and can react adversely to these
products.
