This Consumer Guide gives you a wealth of information to help you make the best decisions for your condition and take the right steps toward achieving your goals.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a less-invasive skin surface treatment performed without anesthesia, which results in fresher looking skin with virtually no recovery time. Microdermabrasion may improve signs of aging to the face, neck, and arms in just about one hour.

Vibraderm

Vibraderm is an alternative to microdermabrasion, stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production and exfoliation. Vibraderm treats mild acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, poorly textured skin, fine lines, and clogged pores.
