Can Microdermabrasion Reduce Blackheads?

Do you wish your skin looked and felt better? Maybe you’re tired of rough and bumpy skin or you would rather have less visible fine lines and wrinkles. Microdermabrasion is a treatment that can not only help skin feel and look better but can also fade the appearance of some skin concerns. If you are interested in great skin, here at Still Waters Day& Med Spa in Pensacola, FL, we can help you get it!

Can Microdermabrasion Reduce Blackheads?

If blackheads are a concern for you, this treatment can definitely help. Blackheads are the result of debris becoming trapped deep within the pores and that debris can be stubborn to get out of there when using other treatments. This treatment, however, will purge the pores of all that trapped debris and remove any stubborn blackheads far better than any other treatment!

The Other Benefits of Treatment

Makes Pores Look Smaller

In addition to being able to remove blackheads, this treatment can also take care of any oil, dirt, or other debris trapped in the pores as well. This will help shrink down any enlarged pores and give your skin a much smoother, healthier-looking surface.

Reduces Appearance of Fine Lines & Wrinkles

If you have unwanted fine lines and wrinkles and creams just are not cutting it, this treatment can also help with this concern too! It can fade the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, especially those that form on the forehead, around the eyes, and around the mouth. With continued treatments, fine lines and wrinkles can be dramatically reduced and the more mild lines and wrinkles may be able to be erased altogether.

Fades Sun Damage

Sun damage can cause the skin to look aged and uneven. This treatment will fade any damage that was left behind from the sun especially with continued treatment sessions.

Evens Skin Tone

Uneven skin tone is a concern that a lot of people deal with. It can be due to redness and other issues but either way, most people would rather have a more even skin tone. This treatment can give you just that. In as little as a single treatment session, skin can be dramatically more even than it was before, helping it to look healthier and brighter.

Smooths Skin Texture

Rough patches of skin or bumpy skin can be another stubborn skin concern but this treatment can smooth away any of that uneven skin texture and give you beautifully smooth that you can not only feel but can also see!

Brightens Skin

Dull skin is likely a more common concern than you may realize. Even with the proper skincare, skin can still become dull in appearance. This treatment will take care of any dead skin cells on the surface of the skin which will allow the refreshed, more radiant skin cells to come to the surface. Your skin will appear much brighter and much more glowing than it did before treatment.

Fades Acne Scarring

If you want rid of any mild to moderate scarring that was left behind from past acne, this treatment can help. It will fade the appearance of acne scarring and with continued treatments, may be able to erase the concern once and for all.

Reduces Acne

If blackheads are not your only concern and you struggle with active acne, this treatment can help with that as well. It provides skin with a deep cleaning that can remove even stubborn oil that causes acne. It can help prevent future breakouts!

Refreshed, Beautiful Skin

When it comes down to it, you can expect skin that is completely refreshed after this treatment. The skin will feel smoother, appear brighter, and look younger.
