Microdermabrasion – Rocklin – Skin Planing

The process of skin planing is an effective way to refresh the skin, remove fine lines and reveal a youthful glow. Microdermabrasion is a skin planing procedure that gently scrubs away the top layer of skin. It is not the same thing as dermabrasion, even though they employ similar techniques. Microdermabrasion is a newer, more advanced method that is much more common than dermabrasion.

Microdermabrasion involves using a device that projects a stream of tiny abrasive materials like aluminum oxide or sodium bicarbonate. To prevent inhalation and injury to the eye, both the patient and practitioner typically wear a face mask and goggles. The procedure can last as little as a few minutes or an entire hour. Consult with a board-certified practitioner like Dr. Roy Harris to discuss the details of microdermabrasion.
