DermaSweep – Firm and Tone Your Skin

What is microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a skin-revitalizing treatment that helps repair skin that is damaged from the sun, scars, acne and the unwanted effects of aging. A Sylvana professional uses gentle abrasion with suction to remove (or peel) the dead, outer layer of skin in order to stimulate and reveal new healthy skin underneath.

How does DermaSweep work?

DermaSweep features a closed system with a variable level vacuum pump that gently lifts the skin surface as the device "sweeps away" the dead layer of skin in a precise and controlled manner.

The skin is left smoother as the vacuum action of the wand stimulates blood flow and cleans the pores. The increased blood flow encourages collagen production, which firms and tones the epidermis.

What skin conditions does DermaSweep treat?

Most everyone can enjoy the DermaSweep’s rejuvenation benefits. DermaSweep treatments can reduce:

• Early aging lines
• Sun-damaged skin/photo damage
• Melasma (irregular brown patches)
• Fine lines
• Hyper-pigmentation (brown patches and age spots)
• Uneven skin texture
• Surgical scars

DermaSweep will also

• Refine enlarged pores
• Improve and control acne
• Revitalize dull skin
• Improve overall skin health

Is DermaSweep better than old-fashioned microdermabrasion treatments?

This revolutionary system eliminates the messy and painful crystals often used by microdermabrasion systems to remove dead skin. DermaSweep features a closed system with a variable level vacuum pump that gently lifts the skin as the bristles "sweep away" the dead layer of skin in a precise and controlled manner.

DermaSweep enables airflow through the bristles to allow the skin to be gently drawn into the bristle for an more effective and less irritating exfoliation. The unique, efficient use of vacuum pressure and bristles are customized for each treatment, depending on skin type, desired level of exfoliation and results.

Patients see a noticeable skin improvement with fewer treatments, and there are improved results beginning with the first treatment.

What is DermaSweep’s Epi-Infusion?

DermaSweep Epi-Infusion treatments combine exfoliation with the delivery of skin specific topical solutions, which results in fresher feeling and better looking skin. DermaSweep’s topical solutions are formulated to treat specific dermatological conditions. The solution is applied under vacuum pressure at the same time the system exfoliates the epidermis. At Sylvana, we tailor treatments to each patient's unique skincare needs.

Is the treatment painful or come with side effects?

DermaSweep is painless. You may feel mild tightening or tingling after exfoliation but the skin will be quite smooth. The moisture of any topical treatment will leave your skin with a cool, refreshed feeling.

At Sylvana we finish treatments with an anti-oxidant and a sunscreen since the exfoliated skin has temporarily lost some of its natural protection to the environment. We also recommend you avoid sun exposure.

What will my skin look after treatment?

Your skin will be instantly smoother and you will notice a vibrant glow after the first treatment. Hyper-pigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and stretch-marks will lessen gradually over a series of treatments.

How long will the results last?

Lasting and more significant results will occur after four to six treatments spaced over 10 days to two weeks apart, supported by a daily post treatment routine. If you have DermaSweep in combination with an Oxygen facial or laser skin rejuvenation (photorejuvenation or chemical peels), then the results will last longer.

What will I do after the treatment?

A home skincare regime will be recommended to maintain the results of your treatment.
