At Eve Aesthetics Skincare and Laser Centre we believe that every individual is uniquely created and possesses a unique beauty.

Does your skin need a pick-me-up? When you look in the mirror, does your skin seem a little dull, tired or --heaven forbid-- old? If I am talking to you, you're not alone. For most of us who have arrived in the middle years (and beyond), our skin is a dead give away. Fortunately, taking the years off is easier than you might think.

Microdermabrasion has been available for a while now, and it's stuck around for one simple reason: it works. Much like an eraser, it gently exfoliates the uppermost skin layers on the face, hands and decolletage, removing many of aging's telltale signs - sun damage, fine lines, small scars, stretch marks and age spots. Rough skin is buffed to silky smoothness, and collagen and elastin production are enhanced, encouraging healthy new cell growth.

And the best part of all? The procedure is painless, with little to no recovery time and few side effects. A series of treatments, generally spaced every 10 days - 2 weeks, should leave you with brighter, firmer, younger-looking skin.

Microdermabrasion could be for you if you're concerned about:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Sun damaged skin
• Melasma
• Enlarged pores
• Acne
• Hyperpigmentation (age spots)
• Dull, lifeless skin
• Rough skin
• Keratosis Pilaris (bumpy skin on the upper arms and shoulders)

How It Works

Microdermabrasion uses a computerized wand that projects a fine spray of crystal corundum across the surface of the skin. The wand simultaneously vacuums up dead skin cells and crystal residue. Over a series of treatments, skin irregularities are literally polished away.

The Eve Microdermabrasion Experience

The Eve Microdermabrasion Experience Treatment lasts about 50 minutes from start to finish. It begins with a consultation, giving you the chance to discuss your skin concerns and get your questions answered. Your skin is then cleansed and exfoliated with the Derma Pod (our microdermabrasion system). We make 1 - 3 passes, depending on your specific needs. Once the exfoliation process is completed, we apply diagnostic serum and pamper you with a soothing masque, moisturizing treatment and finally top off yourexperience with Obagi sunscreen.
