Skin & hairMaking the skin more supple can improve function, especially when the scars are around the joints.
Combined with microdermabrasion, Crystal Clear oxygen therapy breathes new life into damaged skin. A serum is delivered into the skin, down to the dermis, using high-pressure oxygen, which stimulates the fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin. In this way, skin regeneration is also stimulated from within.
Uses of microdermabrasion
The treatment is suitable for virtually all skin types and all ages. Microdermabrasion stimulates cell regeneration and the subcutaneous connective tissue / collagen, evens out skin tone and improves blood circulation. Unevenness, pigmentation spots, scars, acne and wrinkles become less visible or disappear. Microdermabrasion brings about an overall improvement and rejuvenates the skin.
What can you expect?
The treatment is not painful and, thanks to its gentle vacuum effect, feels like a light sandblaster and a small vacuum cleaner on the skin. Several treatments are needed to achieve the desired result.

My skin feels much flatter and more even, and my scars have become less red and much more supple than before. Thanks to Crystal Clear microdermabrasion, I also dare to wear three-quarter sleeves to show my forearms again for the first time since the burn accident 15 years ago.

After the treatment
After the treatment, the skin may sometimes be slightly red and swollen. This depends entirely on your skin type, and such reactions usually disappear quickly. You can resume your normal activities straight away.
