TECHNIQUE:

Parisian Peel brand Medical Microdermabrasion is a quick, gentle skin renewal process that can treat superficial blemishes on your skin caused by aging or too much exposure to the sun. Originally developed in France, the Parisian Peel process has been used successfully throughout the world to treat fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, acne scars and similar skin conditions.

Microdermabrasion is not a chemical, not a laser and not a surgical procedure. Instead, the Parisian Peel system gently buffs the surface of your skin to remove the rough outer layer of cells and uncover the smoother, softer skin beneath. Works well on all colors of skin. It is more affordable than laser, surgery or other methods.
