A new decade is upon us.  A new year.  New chances to improve ourselves and our lives.  And step one is self care: taking the steps for physical and mental well-being.  One important part of self care is giving your skin some love!  At pdmd, we take a comprehensive approach to skin care, from lasers to fillers and botox to tailored skin care regimens and of course, facial services.  This month, to kick off 2020 the right way, we are offering a special promotion with our amazing aesthetician, Audrey: a signature facial with microdermabrasion (1 hour long total treatment). 

What is microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a painless, non-invasive procedure where a handheld applicator is used to stream super fine crystals and then vacuum/suction them to gently exfoliate the superficial, dry layers of the skin.  The technique stimulates blood flow, resulting in glowing skin.  The suctioning helps to unclog stubborn pores and improve mild acne.  Collagen production is stimulated, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  There may be mild redness for a day or two, but generally, there is very little downtime. 

Microdermabrasion can be combined with other treatments offered during a facial, such as masks and chemical peels.  Ask us about it at pdmd!

Happy New Year and wishing everyone beautiful, healthy skin!
