Microdermabrasion Training

Despite microdermabrasion treatments being one of the most popular aesthetic treatments that is suitable for most skins, only a small percentage of clinics offer this treatment to their patients.

Bristol Beauty Aesthetic Training Courses offers high quality microdermabrasion training designed for practitioners who wish to offer an extended service to their patients.

Microdermabrasion is a mechanical method of exfoliating the skin. This is a non-surgical method of skin rejuvenation. It works by using a superior vacuum and a specially designed hand piece to exfoliate the layers of the stratum corneum using aluminium oxide crystals.

The fine micro-particles being blasted across the face by a kind of skin vacuum cleaner to help improve the texture and appearance of the skin. The powder used varies and can include crystals of aluminum salts, sodium bicarbonate, or sodium chloride. There are two different machines crystal microdermabrasion and diamond tip microdermabrasion.

It is a non -invasive mild treatment causing minimal damage and designed to improve the overall texture, tone and clarity of the skin. The combination of skin exfoliation and vacuum stimulates the fibroblasts to produce new and healthy cells in the basal layer of the epidermis. 

This leads to cell turnover, an improved blood flow and skin rejuvenation. The microdermabrasion will smooth out the skin leaving it fresh and regenerating new skin cells. The process also encourages the production of collagen and helps treat early signs of aging.

You can offer this as a microdermabrasion treatment or with other skin care enhancing products that are added to a clinical facial routine. This pain free procedure can be combined with other skin rejuvenating treatments such Chemical peels, Micro-needling and LED mask. Bristol Beauty aesthetics offer all these courses.
