What Is California Peel / Microdermabrasion?
With the California Peel, the skin is lifted by a precision handpiece and gently abraded by a blast of fine aluminum oxide crystals. The handpiece gradually glides across the skin’s surface, removing the dead outer layer of skin and erasing fine lines and blemishes to uncover the smoother, younger-looking skin underneath. The California Peel is effective on all colors of skin. The simple process is virtually pain-free and can be performed without any anesthesia in most patients. Immediately after the procedure, the skin has a pink appearance with no excessive redness. Its texture feels silky smooth. Patients can apply cosmetics directly afterwards. The California Peel takes only 20 to 30 minutes. Safe and convenient, many patients schedule their procedure during their lunch hour. Initially, five to ten treatments may be necessary to achieve the best results. Your licensed paramedical aesthetician can help you establish the appropriate treatment plan for your skin type and condition. Th
