Microdermabrasion, or microderm, is the removal of the top layer of the skin, mainly the dead outermost layer (stratum corneum). It is used frequently to improve the appearance of sun damaged skin, decrease the visibility of fine lines and improve over all skin texture.
Microdermabrasion is sanding the skin, which can also be done in a medical office, spa or at home.
Usually a series of treatments are required to even skin tone. After each treatment the skin replaces cells that are removed resulting in an improved appearance of the skin.
