Lets break down the word microdermabrasion: Micro obviously
stands for something that's very small in size, derma stands
for your skin, and abrasion is the wearing away of a surface
due to constant friction. That's precisely what a home
microdermabrasion kit or other microdermabrasion equipment
does. The treatment consists of using a sand-jet that can blow
fine particles (either sand or other microdermabrasion
crystals) on to your skin that removes all the dead cells,
opens the skin pores and essentially makes your skin taut.
