MICRODERMABRASION  -

CRYSTAL AND DIAMOND 

WHAT IS IT:

The use of crystals or a diamond-tipped wand to remove dead cells on the surface of the skin.

​

WHAT IS IT FOR:​

• Congested skin

• Ageing and photo-damaged skin

• Rough texture

• Devitalised skin

• To enhance other treatments or aid in the penetration of ingredients

​

WHAT HAPPENS:
A probe or wand is stroked over clean skin to remove superficial, dead skin cells.

 

Microdermabrasion is effective at smoothing the surface of the skin. We use a choice of either O2 crystal, where the skin is peppered with a stream of crystals and O2, or diamond microdermabrasion, where a diamond-tipped head is massaged over the surface of the skin.

 

It can be combined with other treatments such as CITbyJacquelineParker®, LED Photofacials and other Medi-facials.
