Mediderm Visage Vs Microdermabrasion
...and the Winner Is...
With the variety of skin enhancement therapies it can be difficult to decide on the best methods. This article simplifies the comparison between microdermabrasion and mediderm visage.
At the time it came out, microdermabrasion was the cutting edge technology. But technology never stands still and since then mediderm visage has emerged as a safer and more reliable treatment, clearly outperforming microdermabrasion treatments.
Comparing Side-Effects
Who hasn’t heard the expression, “No pain, no gain.” Forget it. When it comes to skin care any pain or side-effects should be avoided. So let’s start the comparison here:
Microdermabrasion side effects, while not standard to all individuals, can include redness similar to sunburn lasting around 24 hours. Itching, flaking and dry skin can appear from 2 to 4 days later as the skin begins to heal. Though these side-effects subside, the patient endures a period of embarrassment following each treatment.
With microdermabrasion, acne can increase for a period of time before the treatment has its desired effect, once again causing unnecessary embarrassment, while those with darker skin types can experience an increase to pigmentation problems.
Broken capillaries are often result after having microdermabrasion, due to the suction/vacuum properties of the nozzle while it sand papers off your skin.
Direct sunlight should be avoided on skin highly sensitised by the microdermabrasion rosacea treatment.
Cheap microdermabrasion kits are available for microdermabrasion home treatments but there is potential for additional side-effects. With home-based microdermabrasion skin care, or in unskilled microdermabrasion clinics, comes the risk of inhaling microdermabrasion crystals, getting the crystals in the eyes and of infection.
Mediderm visage has no side effects with no inflammation or irritation. Because each treatment is so gentle other complementary treatments can be carried out at the same time, such as Laser Pigmentation Treatments, Chiral Peels or Medi Light Therapy. Mediderm Visage is so gentle yet so effective, even the most sensitive skins can benefit from this treatment such as Rosacea and acne skins.
Comparing Methods
The microdermabrasion peel uses a vacuum process to draw and hold your skin as the abrasive method removes the top layer of skin. This is why certain mild side-effects and contra-indications can apply.
Mediderm visage uses no scrubbing, chemical, abrasive or suction techniques. The medical grade process works at a high frequency of 28,000 waves/vibrations per second to hydroblast congestion, stimulate collagen and elastin production, heal, plump and firm on a deeper level. Hydration is significantly increased and fine lines and wrinkles are dramatically reduced.
Comparing Contra-Indications
Contra-indications to having a Microdermabrasion facial include pregnant and nursing mothers and those using Retin A and with Keratosis.
Mediderm visage is non-invasive and totally safe; therefore no contra-indications apply. The process is ideal for sensitive and rosacea skin conditions, acne scarring and treatment, and mature and sun damaged skins.
Fastest Results
With mediderm visage we recommend six - eight 30-minute treatments over four to six weeks. This time span is also another improvement on the Microdermabrasion system, which lasts from 45 – 60 minutes per treatment and can take up to 12 weeks.
In every way mediderm visage has replaced Microdermabrasion.
