Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a technique for removing the topmost layer of skin leaving it supple and vibrant. Refine Dermatique's DiamondTomeTM wand removes this layer of skin by gently exfoliating the skin with natural diamond chips, while at the same time vacuuming the dead skin cells away in a sterile and controlled manner. Removing this outer layer of dead skin cells leaves a smoother texture and promotes the growth of healthy new skin cells. Leading plastic surgeons and dermatologists regard the DiamondTomeTM System as being more gentle than other exfoliating system, even at its highest settings. The Refine Dermatique staff are trained to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment while at the same time ensuring your comfort.
Chemical Peels
Chemical Peels have become one of the most popular treatments for aging or sun damaged skin with more than 1 million procedures performed nationwide in 2006. This chemical solution improves and smoothes skin texture by removing damaged outer layers. Chemical Peels effectively reduce fine lines, age spots, enlarged pores, light sun damage, light freckling and minimal scarring. For this procedure, Refine Dermatique professionals apply a chemical solution to your skin that eventually peels off the damaged skin to give way to new, regenerated skin.
MicroLaser Peel
Refine Dermatique of Albertville, MN, offers an advanced Sciton laser skin rejuvenating treatment called MicroLaser Peels. This gentle treatment precisely removes the outer layer of skin to help smooth your skin, reduce your pores and blend irregular pigmented spots caused by acne or aging. MicroLaser Peels can be as effective as more invasive laser treatments without the healing time.
Photodynamic Therapy
At Refine Dermatique, Photodynamic Therapy is seen as the first-line of defense for correcting acne and preventing scarring. This technology destroys acne bacteria in your skin, decreases sebum production and provides long term improvement of inflammatory or cystic acne. It gets results by combining the sophistication of light-based technology with a natural topical chemical to target and stop acne activity. Cases of severe and hard-to-treat acne show substantial improvements within a handful of treatments. Typically, patients undergo two procedures, lasting about 10 minutes.
