  • Page 9: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION WHAT IS MICRODERMABRASION? Microdermabrasion is a simple and effective form of exfoliation. It is a mechanical exfoliation that uses aluminum oxide crystals to remove the outer layer of dead or damaged skin cells, revealing a more youth- ful skin. Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive treatment designed to improve the overall texture, tone and clarity of the skin while restoring the skin’s elasticity.

  • Page 20: Performing A Microdermabrasion Treatment

    Silver Series CHAPTER 2 PERFORMING A MICRODERMABRASION TREATMENT Microdermabrasion removes dead cells from the surface of the skin. It thickens the outer layer, or epider- mis, of the skin and increases the production of new skin cells, collagen and elastin. Microdermabrasion leaves the skin smooth and clean with mild redness (erythema).
  • Page 21 Continue this for two days. Do not apply any irritants, such as Retin-A or glycolics for 2 days after any peel, and use only a 1% hydrocortisone and a good moisturizing base (green tea vita-E moisturizer™ by dmSkincare). DermaMed Solutions, LLC will be happy to recommend the proper post-skin care.

    Silver Series CHAPTER 5 Before troubleshooting your MegaPeel EX be sure that the crystal canister is not empty or the waste filter is not full. TROUBLESHOOTING We expect that your experiences with the MegaPeel EX product and process will always run smoothly. In case you run into problems, here’s a handful of suggestions.
  • Page 35 Take the short blue tube from the spare parts kit. Attach it to the metal grommet at the end of the long, blue crystal tube. Press on the pink O-ring to remove the pink tube attached to the waste container from the machine.
  • Page 36 Silver Series Pull out the tubes. Take the clear, 5-inch, U-shaped tube from the spare parts kit and connect it to the O-rings on the front of the machine .The tube will look like a horseshoe in the front of the machine. Turn the vacuum knob all the way to the right so the vacuum is at its highest pressure.
  • Page 37 Attach it to the metal grommet at the end of the long, blue crystal tube. Press on the pink O-ring to remove the pink tube attached to the waste container from the machine. Attach the pink tube from the waste filter to the other end of the short blue tube from the spare parts kit which is already connected to the blue tube coming out of the machine.
