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 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?

Nearly everyone can benefit from DermaSweep’s rejuvenation. DermaSweep 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?

Yes. It eliminates the messy and painful crystals often used by microdermabrasion systems to remove dead skin.

There is noticeable skin improvement with fewer treatments, and results start with the first treatment.

What is DermaSweep’s Epi-Infusion?

DermaSweep Epi-Infusion treatments combine exfoliation with topical solutions specific to each patient's unique skincare needs, which results in fresher feeling and better looking skin.

Is DermaSweep uncomfortable?

You may feel mild tightening or tingling after exfoliation but it's not at all painful. 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 10 days to two weeks apart. These should be augmented by a daily skin care program. If you have DermaSweep in combination with an Oxygen facial or laser skin rejuvenation (photorejuvenation or chemical peels) the results will last longer.

What will I do after the treatment?

Sylvana can recommend a home skincare regime to maintain the results of your treatment.
