Posted on June 30, 2010 by amitkheterpal

If you are in the beauty therapy business and want to introduce the microdermabrasion therapy in your spa, then you will need all the equipment which will allow to deliver the treatment properly.

There are many microdermabrasion machines available. There is the diamond one and the aluminum oxide microdermabrasion. Both the versions are expensive, and it a good idea to buy second hand machines.

There are many places you can choose to buy good quality second hand machines.
You can either shop in the high street or do a search online for a company specializing in spa equipment. These distributors usually have access to used and new types of equipment.

If you decide to shop online, then a good place to look for inexpensive equipment is the very famous eBay auction house. Many varieties of used equipment can be bought  at cheap prices. Prior to paying for any used equipment it’s a good idea to look into the reseller ratings-this will tell you whether they have a good reputation or not. Also you will know whether the items that you have bought are genuine or not.

There are many Spa equipment sellers online and they are worth checking out before you spend any money.

The price of the equipment is very high. A new machine will cost $12,000 or more, but if you shop wisely then you could get it for maybe around $3000. It will be a bargain at the latter price but make sure that it is functioning properly.

When I last shopped on eBay many home kits were selling at very low prices indeed. Before you make your purchase check that you can have a guarantee, because if you can’t then the seller is not genuine.

Microdermabrasion for men

Posted on June 30, 2010 by amitkheterpal

Cosmetic treatments and skin-care routines are not generally a topic that many men like to discuss, despite the fact that many do use beauty therapy treatments to improve their looks. Microdermabrasion  for men is a highly popular treatment that can be done at home on a regular basis, if you have really bad skin.

The treatment will exfoliate the surface of the skin to show younger skin underneath. The microdermabrasion exfoliating process will remove the dead cells and expose the new re-growth. The women are well catered for in this department when it comes to anti-aging products, but the men there far less products on the market.

Many men would like to look younger. They find it embarrassing going into a beauty therapy clinic, where they could be professionally treated. But all that has changed and now. Men can look forward to visiting salons that have time slots only for men. This is going to be very helpful in case you feel self conscious about visiting when there a lot of female clients around.

Being a man you might face a big problem when it comes to visiting spa clinics, but there are several home kits available also. The home treatments are just as good and can give very dramatic results.

The company Lancome has developed an excellent microdermabrasion kit called Exfoliating Microdermabrasion which is very suitable for home use.

 

Do men require Microdermabrasion?

The answer is yes, their skin is no different to that of women. They have a lot of similar skin problems  like fine lines, premature aging, and wrinkles. The state of the male skin is always far worse as they pay less attention to it, anyway.

Men smoke too much.
Consume too much alcohol.
Some manage to work very long hours.

Analyzing the upper layers of a man’s skin tells you how bad the condition is. Treating it with microdermabrasion therapy will exfoliate the top 15 to 20 microns. This will result in rejuvenating the surface of the skin to some extent.

The process of applying the treatment is completely the same for men as it is for women. The really good thing is that the whole treatment can be done at home with no women watching!

microdermabrasion training certification

Posted on June 30, 2010 by amitkheterpal

Microdermabrasion can be performed either at a spa or specialist clinic or at home with the use of a microdermabrasion kit. Home-based microdermabrasion treatments involve purchasing a home microdermabrasion kit and following the instructions contained within it. Usually, home microdermabrasion involves applying a facial cream which is contained within the kit.

Professional microdermabrasion performed at the spa or a dermatology clinic involves the use of traditional microdermabrasion machines which are specialized pieces of equipment whose use requires special training.

With this in mind, you should consider obtaining microdermabrasion training from a certified institute if you wish to become employed at a spa or dermatologist’s clinic.

If you wish to be able to carry out professional microdermabrasion, you need to contemplate:

State laws regarding facial procedures in the area in which you reside.

Obtaining certification in all procedures, not just microdermabrasion. Esthetician schools tend to teach you not only microdermabrasion techniques but provide you with overall training in cosmetics. Consequently, if you enrol on a recognized course, you should expect to cover a wide range of procedures. Courses are widely available and typically last three years in duration.

A two day 14 hour standard microdermabrasion training course is available to those who already possess training and experience in cosmetic procedures.

If you are considering enrolling on a course which will teach you microdermabrasion techniques, you should ensure that the course will teach you the following skills:

Skin examination – you should be taught about the different skin types a person may have and at the end of the course you should be able to recognize the type of skin a patient has.
Patient interaction – you should be taught how to explain the risks and possible side effects associated with treatments and you should learn how to make the patient feel as relaxed and as comfortable as possible.
Handing machinery – you should be taught the correct way in which to handle specialized equipment and possess the ability to recognize differences between brands.
Equipment up-keep and maintenance – you should be taught how to clean and sterilize equipment.

A microdermabrasion training program will typically amount to $300. Costs vary depending upon location.

The National Coalition of Estheticians, Manufacturers / Distributors and Associations (NCEA) body imposes a structure for microdermabrasion courses
