Medical Microdermabrasion is a procedure which involves combining positive air pressure and firing pure salt crystals on the skin surface to remove the superficial layer of ‘dead skin’.

Unlike inferior dermabrasion machines in beauty salons the medical microdermabrasion machine that the Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic uses is more powerful and can resurface the skin to a deeper level to optimise results. Unlike a resurfacing laser treatment which is invasive, there is minimal discomfort and redness with no downtime.

After the medical microdermabrasion procedure an ultrasound massage procedure is carried out to penetrate antioxidants and vitamins into the skin to stimulate production of collagen and elastin leading to smoother looking revitalised skin.

The whole procedure takes approximately 30 minutes. A course of 7 treatments, 14 days apart is usually recommended. Results can be further enhanced by combination treatments with facial peels.

In clinical trials using the medical microdermabrasion that solihull clinic uses there has been up to 65% improvement in abdominal stretch marks after a course of treatments.
