Dermalinfusion Microdermabrasion for Face Mask Acne
As if having to wear facemasks wasn’t annoying enough, many people are now experiencing skin problems such as acne, pimples and clogged pores due to the effects of constant mask wearing during the coronavirus pandemic. Even, people who never had acne before are now suffering from breakouts. And individuals who did have pre-existing skin problems are finding that face masks aggravate their already frustrating skin conditions.
Face mask acne is so common that it has even been given a its own name: “Maskne”.
The good news is that an effective, affordable and relaxing treatment at SpaMedica in Grand Rapids can counteract the effects of wearing face masks – delivering clear, glowing, acne-free skin. State-of-the-art Dermalinfusion is a proprietary microdermabrasion system (sometimes also called “DiamondGlow”) that utilizes three procedures simultaneously to exfoliate, extract and nourish skin. The result is unparalleled acne-reduction – with no pain and no downtime.
And, because dermalinfusion microdermabrasion is 100% natural, it is safe for almost everybody including teenagers, people with sensitive skin, individuals with darker skin tones, and even pregnant or nursing mothers!
How Dermalinfusion Treatments for Acne Works
#1. Exfoliation for Face Mask Acne
Dermalinfusion acne treatment is performed using a “three-in-one” process. First, exfoliation is accomplished with a special diamond tip, that gently buffs away the top layer of dead, dry and damaged skin cells. This reveals the fresh, new, younger, clear skin below!
Our skilled Medical Assistant Amy will gently apply the diamond tip – which is about an inch wide – across your face for about 20 minutes. In addition to exfoliating dead skin cells, this rubs off any dirt, debris or oil. The treatment does not hurt at all – and is described by patients as rather relaxing! So, in addition to getting clearer skin, you are able to take some time for a little pampering in our luxurious med spa.
#2. Vacuum Extraction for Face Mask Acne
Acne breakouts are caused by oil, dead cells and dirt that plug the hair follicles (pores). This traps bacteria, causing an infection that triggers inflammation and pus, and erupts into unsightly pimples.
Simultaneously performed with the exfoliation, the Dermalinfusion tip exerts a low-pressure vacuum that sucks up the exfoliated dead skin cells, and extracts any sebum (oil), other “gunk” and bacteria that are clogging the pores.
#3. Serum Infusion for Face Mask Acne
At the same time, Dermalinfusion’s pressurized handpiece applies specially selected acne-fighting, skin-nourishing serums deep into the pores. Each Dermalinfusion serum is specially formulated with ingredients to treat the patient’s unique skin problems.
For treating face mask acne a special Pore Clarifying Pro-Infusion Serum is typically used, containing clinical-strength salicylic acid and other nutritive ingredients. Salicylic acid not only kills the specific bacteria that cause acne (Propionibacterium acnes or P. acnes), it also reduces the production of skin oil. This means Dermalinfusion helps prevent future acne breakouts, in addition to clearing up current pimples.
Advantages of Dermalinfusion Microdermabrasion for Face Mask Acne
One of the best things about Dermalinfusion is that, unlike many other acne treatments, it can be administered during active, “inflammatory” acne breakouts! In other words, “DiamondGlow” treats pimples, redness and eruptions while it’s happening. So, patients will see dramatic results and clearer skin after their first Dermalinfusion treatment! And a series of multiple microdermabrasion treatments will deliver even more substantial results.
Additionally, the diamond tip used in Dermalinfusion is superior to other microdermabrasion systems that use crystals because crystals cause dust that can get in the eyes and nose. And – unlike other exfoliating treatments that leave your red for a couple of days – there is no downtime after Dermalinfusion (Diamond Glow)!
