Q - What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a skin resurfacing procedure which can instantly renew the skin without any downtime. Using the Diamond Tome, the newest in microdermabrasion technology, the top dead cell layer of skin is removed, resulting in a smoother, softer and more radiant complexion. Fine lines, superficial wrinkles, crow’s feet, age spots, acne scars and other blemished can be improved through microdermabrasion.
