Your Skin is the largest organ on your body–but it often receives the least care. While a great skin care regimen at home can keep your skin healthy, sometimes it can use the extra attention of a facial treatment to really help it glow and maintain a great texture

If you are looking to improve your skin, you can try these facial treatments:

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion uses multiple techniques to help your skin look great. First, your technician or doctor rolls a handheld device over your skin. The device has crystals on the end that exfoliate your skin, while suction pulls the dead skin cells away. This can reveal healthier skin below drying and dead skin cells.

Microdermabrasion also stimulates skin cells a little deeper down, triggering your body’s healing response. This can lead to higher production of collagen, a protein that helps skin look flexible and smooth. Microdermabrasion is the best to treat fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and other scarring on the face.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels use different substances to exfoliate the skin, getting rid of dead cells and improve skin texture and tone. It also often contains vitamins to nourish the skin. The chemical peel is brushed onto your clean skin and left in place for a few minutes before being removed. Depending on the depth of your chemical peel, it may take a few days for your skin to stop peeling and look fresh and new.

Chemical peels can help with fine lines as well as discoloration in your skin, such as age spots or scarring.

Laser Resurfacing

Laser resurfacing uses a specially designed laser to stimulate new skin cell growth as well as the production of collagen. While it can cause heat in your skin, it is safe and your technician will work to help keep you comfortable. Laser resurfacing can also be combined with UV light for even more intense anti-aging treatment. It can help your body heal acne scars and age spots as well as tightening skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

Glycolic Treatments

Similar to a chemical peel, glycolic treatments use glycolic acid to deeply cleanse and refresh the skin. It can help shrink pores and improve common problems like blackheads or acne. It may also help with rosacea, acne scars or age spots.
