In clinic treatments

In the clinic we take dry skin very seriously. We will often suggest our patients do an intensive in clinic and at home regimen to achieve results. The most popular treatment for dry skin is Diamond tip microdermabrasion. Diamond tip microdermabrasion gently removed the outer most layer of the skin using a vacuum and diamond tip devise to resurface the skin. Also using a light hydrating chemical peel such as Lactic acid or pumpkin which is derived from spoiled milk and a fermented pumpkin. The goal of doing a concentrated treatment for exfoliation is to remove the outer most layer of the skin so the moisturizers and hydrators can penetrate the skin. We also use a device that shakes the skin 1000x per second to jiggle the moisturizers and hydrators into deeper layers of the skin. Helping to improve the moisture levels. We suggest that for dry skin do this treatment every month until a dramatic difference is noticeable, then come in quarterly for maintenance.
