Microdermabrasion sounds painful (like small skin lacerations), but in the right hands it's not. And it works -- exfoliating the skin by passing ultra-fine aluminum oxide (or diamond) crystals in a vacuum tube over the face or chest. The results? Increased cellular renewal and stimulated collagen production, aka a more youthful, glowing face. Below, TIA founder Marta Wohrle and esthetician Ildi Pekar demonstrate this process:
I can't view the video anymore. It says "video not found." =( I was hoping to see what microdermabrasion is like because I'm considering it after reading Copley's post about "pore minimizing made simple." Can you get microdermabrasion at any age? I'm 24. Also, what recommendations do you suggest in finding a spa and/or esthetician that can be trusted in doing microdermabrasions and black/white head extractions (I heard you're not supposed to pick at it or your pores won't return to their original size). But it's also confusing because they suggest that we get these extracted with an esthetician.
Thank you.

Really fine video. I've never had this procedure and wondered how it is done. Marta, thanks for letting us see it - I am going to get it done without any hesitation now.
What do you think of the Mychelle product line? Does it work for aging skin? It certainly is comparatively inexpensive.
