Microdermabrasion

What Is Microdermabrasion? 

Microdermabrasion is a modern and sophisticated technique for effectively eliminating dead skin from the face. This method is not only safe and reliable but also comes with no side effects. While dead skin is a common occurrence, we often resort to scrubbing or cleansing our faces to get rid of it. However, this practice can be detrimental, especially since facial skin is quite delicate. Using the wrong products and applying too much pressure can lead to skin damage, resulting in redness, acne, and rashes. A superior alternative to this is Microdermabrasion (MDA). It can be performed every 15-20 days for oily skin and on a monthly basis for sensitive skin to maintain its natural radiance. 

How Is It Conducted? 

The Microdermabrasion procedure begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin to remove makeup and dust. The Microdermabrasion machine is then connected to a handheld device, which is gently moved across your face. The process typically starts from the forehead, progresses to the cheeks, nose, chin, and concludes with the neck area. It’s a relatively painless procedure, and you may only experience slight suction from the handheld device. Various tip sizes are used for different areas of the body, effectively and gently eliminating dead skin and impurities deeply lodged in the pores. 

Benefits of Microdermabrasion: 

Microdermabrasion offers a range of benefits, including: 

  • Enhancing the skin’s health by eliminating dead cells.
  • Assisting in the removal of sun-induced tanning.
  • Supporting skin rejuvenation by reducing fine lines, blemishes, and age spots.
  • Removing blackheads and impurities from clogged pores.
  • Clearing skin pores and reducing acne outbreaks on the face.
  • Improving the penetration of products applied to the face.
  • Serving as a maintenance procedure for addressing superficial epidermal hyperpigmentation.
  • Addressing texture concerns such as acne scars, age spots, chickenpox scars, injury scars, and sun damage. 

Microdermabrasion is a highly effective and safe approach to achieve vibrant and refreshed skin while also addressing various skin issues.

Chemical Peels

What Is It? 

Throughout India’s history, natural products have been used as part of traditional home remedies to maintain healthy skin. Lemon juice, rich in citric acid, is applied to the face for its cleansing properties. Turmeric is used to achieve brighter and more radiant skin, thanks to its curcumin content. Additionally, milk, with its lactic acid content, has been considered beneficial for achieving a glowing complexion. These gifts from Mother Nature contain remarkable natural substances that are known to be beneficial for the skin.

Chemical peels are essentially a more concentrated form of these natural extracts and active ingredients. These concentrated formulations are derived from carefully selected organic sources in their purest form and are applied to the skin by a dermatologist. They are specifically used to address conditions such as acne, pigmentation issues, and overall skin health improvement.

Treatment Benefits: Chemical peels offer a wide range of benefits, including:

  • Skin Lightening.
  • Tan Removal
  • Spot Reduction
  • Blemish Treatment
  • Management of Oily Skin
  • Scar Improvement
  • Wrinkle Softening
  • Dark Circle Reduction
  • Addressing Face Redness (Rosacea)
  • Treating Truncal Acne
  • Melasma Treatment

How Is It Performed?

  • The peel is meticulously applied by our expert aesthetic dermatologist.
  • Prior to application, the skin is thoroughly cleansed to ensure no residual products are present on the face.
  • Sensitive areas of the face around the eyes, lips, and nose are shielded.
  • The peel is applied to the face, starting from the most resilient areas, and progressing to the more delicate regions as determined by the dermatologist.
  • Different types of peels are used for various skin issues, and each peel has a unique application duration, meticulously managed by the aesthetician.
  • Additionally, each peel has a distinct end point, closely monitored by the dermatologist.
  • Once the peel reaches its designated end point, it is gently removed from the skin using fresh water.
  • Some leave-on peels are left on the skin for 8-12 hours.
  • For optimal results, a combination of peels may be used in a single session, a recommendation provided exclusively by our skin experts, considering individual skin type, texture, and specific skin concerns.

Micro Needling – Derma pen

Understanding Derma Pen 

Derma Pen is a form of micro-needling that comes highly recommended by dermatologists for addressing a range of skin conditions, including depressed acne scars, surgical scars, wrinkles, stretch marks, and more. This procedure involves creating tiny micro-punctures in the skin using small, sterile needles housed in a unique, spring-loaded needle tip. This design ensures safe and controlled treatment, ultimately leading to enhanced results. Derma Pen micro-needling stimulates collagen production, which plays a pivotal role in revitalizing the skin and diminishing blemishes.

How Does Derma Pen Function? 

The process entails inserting micro-needles into the skin, causing minor trauma that triggers the deeper layer of skin, known as the dermis, to undergo self-repair by generating additional collagen. Collagen is a crucial protein responsible for maintaining the skin’s firm, elastic, and youthful appearance. Unfortunately, collagen levels decline with age and can also be depleted due to skin injuries like acne, surgical incisions, or over-stretching from events such as pregnancy or weight gain. The Derma Pen tip is adjustable, with the ability to range from 0.25mm to 2.5mm, catering to individual skin conditions and treatment areas. This flexibility makes it an innovative, effective, and cost-efficient option for skin rejuvenation.

It is important to note that Derma Pen is not a quick-fix solution. While you may begin to notice your skin looking and feeling younger after just a few days, subtle improvements will continue to appear over the course of several weeks and even months. Achieving optimal results may require multiple treatment sessions.

Benefits of Derma Pen 

Micro-needling with Derma Pen can be combined with various other treatments and serums to maximize the effectiveness of collagen-inducing micro-injuries caused during the procedures. For those seeking to create a more flawless skin appearance, the combination of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and Derma Pen is particularly popular.

Here are the advantages of choosing this treatment option for addressing acne scars:

  • Suitable for All Skin Types, Textures, and Pigments: This includes individuals with thin and sensitive skin, as well as those with darker skin tones who may not be suitable candidates for certain laser treatments.
  • Minimal Discomfort: Derma Pen’s vertical stamping needles penetrate the skin without creating the damaging trenches often left behind by rolling micro-needling devices. This results in reduced pain, minimal bleeding, and shorter recovery times.
  • Virtually No Downtime: While you may experience slight tenderness and redness for one to three days, you can return to your daily activities within an hour, using makeup to conceal any redness until your skin fully heals. This sets it apart from more invasive skin therapies that necessitate longer recovery periods.
  • Minimal Aftercare Required: Beyond avoiding direct sun exposure, vigorous exercise, and exfoliating products for a few days, following your standard skincare routine is all that is needed. The treatment area rebuilds itself through increased collagen production.

Micro Needling – Derma Roller

Micro-Needling with Derma Roller for Scar Treatment and Facial Rejuvenation 

Micro-needling with a derma roller is an innovative treatment approach for addressing scars, especially acne scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, and achieving facial rejuvenation. Individuals with mild scarring can experience the benefits of derma roller treatment for acne scars. The derma roller for acne scars is a handheld device equipped with micro-needles. Prior to commencing the procedure, a topical numbing gel is applied to the treatment area to ensure optimal comfort.

During the procedure, the micro-needles of the derma roller for acne scars create micro-pores in the dermis. These micro-pores stimulate the release of growth factors and cytokines. In turn, these growth factors and cytokines initiate a wound healing cascade by promoting the production of collagen, elastin, and neovascularization. The frequency of needling sessions is typically determined by our skin experts at REFLECTIONS AESTHETICA.

Throughout the procedure, specific serums tailored to your unique skin concerns are applied to the treated area. For anti-aging purposes, serums such as hyaluronic acid, growth factors, and skin boosters are used. For facial rejuvenation and a radiant complexion, vitamin C serums and skin enhancers are applied. Stretch marks are targeted with vitamin E and rosehip oils, while acne scars benefit from serums containing collagen and elastin.

Procedure Steps: 

  • Thorough cleansing to remove oil and dirt from the skin.
  • Application of a numbing cream on the face, allowing it to set for 45 minutes to achieve its numbing effect.
  • Removal of the numbing cream, followed by cleansing the face with spirit and betadine.
  • Micro-needling is performed using the derma roller across the entire face, with particular attention to areas with scarring.
  • Application of ice to soothe the skin and reduce redness.
  • Completion with the application of an anti-inflammatory cream and sunscreen, allowing the patient to resume their routine activities.

Micro needling PRP

Micro-Needling with PRP for Skin Rejuvenation 

Micro-needling is a non-invasive procedure that employs micro-needles to target fine lines, wrinkles, and skin tightening. These tiny needles stimulate collagen production in the skin, all while preserving the integrity of the skin. When micro-needling is coupled with vitamin C or Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), its impact on acne scars is further enhanced. The combination of micro-needling and PRP is often referred to as “collagen induction therapy.”

Key Benefits: 

Individuals may consider micro-needling with PRP when seeking to address specific marks or blemishes on the face or body for cosmetic purposes.

Practitioners utilize micro-needling with PRP to treat: 

  • Skin Brightening & Pigmentation Concerns: PRP is incorporated into the main line of treatments to promote skin brightening and address pigmentation issues.
  • Acne Scar Reduction: PRP can be combined with micro-needling and laser therapy to enhance the results of acne scar reduction.
  • Anti-Aging Treatment: PRP is employed as part of anti-aging treatments or for maintenance therapy.
  • Skin Health Maintenance: PRP is instrumental in maintaining skin health.
  • Eye Peels for Dark Circles: Combining PRP with eye peels proves effective in addressing dark circles.
  • Hair Fall & Hair Regrowth: PRP is combined with hair mesa therapies and hair booster therapies to combat hair loss and promote hair regrowth.
  • Post Hair Transplant Care: PRP is used to boost hair regrowth after a hair transplant.

 

Dermal Fillers

Correcting Acne Scars with Dermal Fillers 

Acne can often result in the formation of scars, and for individuals who feel self-conscious about these scars, there is encouraging news: they can be effectively addressed with dermal fillers. 

Dermal fillers are administered through injections into the skin, serving to elevate sunken or depressed areas caused by acne scars, while also stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production. 

Filler options encompass hyaluronic acid-based fillers, such as Restylane and Juvéderm. Alternatively, autologous fat transfer is another option where fat is extracted from the individual and subsequently injected into the areas affected by acne scars.
