DERMAPOD TREATMENTS

State-Of-The-Art Technology

DERMAPOD by Silhouet-tone is the state-of-the-art microdermabrasion, micro-current face lift, red, blue and green light therapy device that provides one of the best preventive and corrective treatments for aging skin.

MICRODERMABRASION

Microdermabrasion, also referred to as mechanical exfoliation or micro-resurfacing is a cosmetic technique that uses a mechanical medium for exfoliation along with adjustable suction to remove outermost layer of dead skin cells from the epidermis. Microdermabrasion is one of the best preventive and corrective treatments for aging skin. With age, the dermis thins out and the corneous layer thickens. Microdermabrasion triggers the skin’s repair mechanism. The dermis forms new collagen and elastin fibers and becomes thicker and more functional. The corneum is thinned to reveal beautiful glowing skin.

I use state-of-art Silhouette-Tone DERMAPOD device that delivers high level of comfort and skin-changing results.
