La Microdermoabrasión en tratamientos faciales 💆🏻‍♂️ | #EDES

Introduction to Microdermabrasion

In this video, the esthetician Mayra Soto introduces the topic of microdermabrasion and discusses its benefits and uses.

What is Microdermabrasion?

• Microdermabrasion is a skin treatment that involves mechanical exfoliation using diamond-tipped wands.

• It helps remove dead skin cells, improve skin texture, and promote cell turnover.

• Different granulometries of diamond tips are used for various areas of the face and body.

Benefits of Microdermabrasion

• Provides a peeling effect by removing dead skin cells, resulting in a brighter and smoother complexion.

• Activates circulation in the skin, promoting oxygenation and nutrient delivery.

• Helps eliminate toxins and waste products from cellular metabolism.

How to Use Microdermabrasion

• The treatment is performed using a suction-based device with adjustable suction levels.

• It should be applied with proper technique to avoid causing any damage or irritation to the skin.

• Contraindications include open wounds, dermatitis, psoriasis, active acne, or rosacea.

Using High-Frequency Current

Mayra Soto answers questions about using high-frequency current in different areas of the body and explains how it can be beneficial for various purposes.

Using High-Frequency Current on Abdomen and Buttocks

• High-frequency current can be used on the abdomen or buttocks to activate tissue microcirculation.

• It helps improve blood flow and can be effective for treating stretch marks by increasing tissue temperature.

Indirect Massage Technique

• An indirect massage technique can be performed using a metallic electrode or glass electrode with a metal element inside.

• The esthetician holds the electrode while the patient holds a high-frequency electrode holder.

• This technique helps activate skin microcirculation and enhance oxygenation and nutrition of the tissues.

Flow of Current to Hands

• The flow of current to the esthetician's hands can occur depending on the material used in the electrode holder.

• Some materials are more insulating, preventing current flow, while others allow current to pass through.

• It is important to be aware of this possibility and choose appropriate equipment.

Understanding Microdermabrasion Procedure

Mayra Soto explains how microdermabrasion works, its physiological effects, and its indications and contraindications.

How Microdermabrasion Works

• Microdermabrasion uses a compressor that generates suction to remove dead skin cells and stimulate circulation.

• Different suction levels can be adjusted based on the area being treated.

• Physiological effects include exfoliation, increased blood flow (hyperemia), improved oxygenation, and nutrient delivery.

Indications for Microdermabrasion

• Ideal for deep facial cleansing, peeling before hydration or nourishment treatments, or managing stretch marks.

• Can also be used for body exfoliation in areas like the neck, chest, or abdomen.

Contraindications for Microdermabrasion

• Avoid using microdermabrasion on open wounds or if there are skin conditions like dermatitis, psoriasis, active acne, or rosacea.

• These conditions may worsen with increased circulation caused by the treatment.

Conclusion

Microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation technique that offers various benefits for improving skin texture and promoting cell turnover. It should be performed with proper technique and consideration of contraindications. High-frequency current can also be used in conjunction with microdermabrasion for specific purposes. Understanding the procedure, its effects, and indications is crucial for achieving optimal results while ensuring client safety.

Contraindications and Skin Preparation

This section discusses the contraindications for the procedure and emphasizes that the patient has healthy skin without any contraindications. The process of cleaning and preparing the skin is also explained.

Skin Cleansing

• A gel cleanser is used to remove makeup and impurities from the patient's skin.

• The gel cleanser is applied and then rinsed off with water using cleansing sponges.

Exfoliation

• An exfoliating scrub with gentle granules is applied to remove impurities and dead cells from the surface layers of the skin.

• Care is taken to avoid excessive exfoliation, as a more intense exfoliation will be performed later.

Toning

• A hydrating toner is applied to restore the pH balance of the skin.

• Gentle tapping motions are used to aid absorption.

Microdermabrasion Procedure

This section focuses on the microdermabrasion procedure, including equipment setup, technique, and precautions.

Equipment Setup

• The diamond-tipped wand is connected to a hose attached to a compressor.

• The suction strength of the equipment should be tested on the forearm before use.

Technique and Precautions

• The face should be divided into zones for better effectiveness.

• The skin should be held taut during treatment to prevent damage or flaccidity.

• If necessary, fingers can be used to help release suction without harming the skin.

• Telangiectasias (dilated blood vessels) should be treated cautiously with minimal passes.

• The eye contour area should always be respected and avoided during treatment.

Benefits of Microdermabrasion in Specific Areas

This section highlights the benefits of microdermabrasion in different areas of the face and neck.

Face

• Microdermabrasion helps to unclog sebaceous follicles and improve the extraction of blackheads.

• The number of passes depends on the condition of the patient's skin, ranging from 3 to 5 repetitions per zone.

Neck

• The neck should be treated with a gentler suction or alternative peeling methods due to its sensitivity.

Décolleté (Chest Area)

• A gentle suction or linear movements can be used for microdermabrasion on the décolleté area.

Post-Microdermabrasion Treatment Options

This section discusses post-microdermabrasion treatment options, including applying hydrating masks and using galvanic current or electroporation for active ingredient penetration.

Hydrating Mask

• Applying a hydrating mask after microdermabrasion helps restore moisture to the skin.

Active Ingredient Application

• Microdermabrasion can be followed by applying ampoules with active ingredients using galvanic current or electroporation techniques.

• It can also be used as a preparatory step before extractions or as a polishing treatment for a porcelain-like effect on the skin.

Conclusion and Final Steps

This section concludes the procedure and mentions applying a jelly mask containing royal jelly to restore hydration to the skin.

Timestamps are approximate and may vary slightly.

New Section

This section discusses the importance of leaving a mask on for 10 to 15 minutes and avoiding excessive drying, as it can dehydrate the skin. The procedure of microabrasion is explained as a way to maintain constant skin renewal.

Leaving the Mask On

• It is important to leave the mask on for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

• Excessive drying should be avoided as it can dehydrate the skin.

Microabrasion Procedure

• Microabrasion helps in maintaining constant skin renewal.

• It removes the outer layers of the epidermis, stimulating new cell production.

• This results in healthier, more luminous, and improved-looking skin.

New Section

This section explains how often microabrasion can be performed and what steps should be taken after removing the mask.

Frequency of Microabrasion

• Microabrasion can be performed once every 15 days.

Post-Mask Removal Steps

• After removing the mask, apply eye contour cream, moisturizer, and sunscreen.

New Section

This section emphasizes the importance of sunscreen and hydration after microabrasion.

Sunscreen Usage

• It is crucial to recommend using sunscreen every 4 hours after microabrasion.

• Exfoliating the protective layer makes it necessary to reinforce protection against skin discoloration or spots.

Hydration Importance

• Adequate hydration ensures that the new layer forming on the skin is well-hydrated and has a beautiful appearance.
