Microdermabrasion/Sapphire 3 Photo Abrasion

The Sapphire 3 Photo Abrasion System is one of few in the country that utilizes breakthrough light therapy that rejuvenates the skin and reduces the signs of aging. It's the next generation in skin care.

The Sapphire Abrasion Systems combine crystal-free, suction-free, non-thermal photo abrasion with red and blue LED (Light-Emitting Diodes) light technology, micro current, and alternating pressure massage for lymphatic drainage, to provide a complete skin rejuvenation experience.

The Sapphire Abrasion System employs vibration instead of suction and crystals to ablate the skin. It is non-thermal and safe for any skin type. The Sapphire Abrasion System produces very impressive results with no pain or recovery time for the patient.

Sapphire Photo Abrasion 

Sapphire Abrasion is performed with an attachment that has a vibrating tip coated with sapphire granules. The vibrating tip is passed slowly over the skin to ablate the outer layers. Grit size and pressure applied determines the depth of ablation.

Light Therapy 

Sapphire Abrasion Systems incorporate the latest advances in light technology developed in part through research by NASA to enhance cell growth and stimulate the healing process of cells. 

Red LED Therapy: Stimulates production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the major carrier of energy to cells which aids in healing and replacement of damaged cells. Red LED also stimulates fibroblasts in the connective tissue increasing collagen production and promoting elasticity and firmness of the skin. Microcurrent is combined with the concentrated red LED to stimulate muscle toning.

Blue LED Therapy: Exposure to blue light causes photoexcitation of bacterial porphyrins creating an environment that kills bacteria on the surface of the skin. It is currently the most sought-after alternative solution for treatment of acne.

Lymphatic Drainage 

The reverse side of the vibrating tip is used to deliver an alternating pressure massage. Following the facial lymphatic paths, the massage serves to increase lymph circulation and encourages detoxification.
