What is a DermaSweep Facial?

Dermasweep is an innovative 3-in-1 therapy that exfoliates, increases circulation, and delivers skin-specific infusions directly to the skin. The no down-time treatments are fast, pain-free, and customized based on skin type and desired outcomes. Skin change is visible in as little as one session, though a series of treatments is recommended for optimum results.

 
 

How does dermasweep work?

Using a variable-level vacuum and an assortment of treatment tips, the DermaSweep wand gently lifts the skin against the appropriate treatment tip, removing the top most layer of skin called the stratum corneum.  Your skin is left smoother while the vacuum action of the wand stimulates blood flow and cleans pores.

Increasing blood flow to the skin’s surface encourages collagen formation thus firming and toning the epidermis as well.  Following the desired level of exfoliation, skin specific infusions are delivered to the skin to target your unique skin care needs for maximum results.

Your skin will have a warm, pinkish glow that can last up to 30 minutes.  Your post treatment care is simple and easy, and will be explained by your skincare provider.

how long will it take before i see results?

Typically, you will see results after the first treatment.  Lasting and more significant results will occur after 3 to 6 treatments spaced 2 weeks to 4 weeks apart.

i have sensitive skin. Can i still have a dermasweep facial?

Patients with any skin type can undergo the DermaSweep facial because the treatment is customized to your skin type. Those with dry, sensitive skin will be treated with lighter suction and with a more gentle, hydrating infusion so as not to irritate the skin. On the other hand, those with thick, oily skin can be treated with maximum suction as well as stronger, chemical peel infusions.

what type of infusion products are used in a treatment?

DermaSweep SkinFusions are available in 3 categories, EpiFusions, PremiumFusions, and PeelFusions.

EpiFusions target specific dermatological concerns such as skin lightening and brightening, and dehydration.

PremiumFusions contain powerful, scientifically proven active skincare ingredients including skin transforming peptides, age reversing growth factors, and revitalizing DNA repair enzymes.

PeelFusions boost the benefits of traditional chemical peels through enhanced delivery of the active skincare ingredients for faster results with less peeling and flaking compared to traditional peels.

Your skincare provider will select the right mix of infusions to deliver the results you desire over the course of several treatments.
