Aestheticians use microdermabrasion to thoroughly exfoliate faces into smoother exteriors, similar to the way handymen use power sanders to shave the beards of gargoyles. Begin beauty-buffing with today's Groupon: for $90, you get two microdermabrasion treatments at A Beautiful Reflection & Day Spa in Turlock (a $180 value).

A Beautiful Reflection & Day Spa’s pore cleaners rejuvenate visages and spruce up skins with customized facials. Spa owner and microdermabrasion expert Kerry Corduck spends 45 minutes to one hour administering the crystal-free microdermabrasion procedure in which diamond-dusted exfoliation accompanies a massage, a facial, and an oxygen treatment. The microdermabrasion wand sloughs off dullness, deeply cleanses skin, and eliminates the presence of dead cells by holding micro-seances, all of which requires no recovery time afterward. This focused degree of exfoliation helps to reduce pigmentation, melt away scars, buff off fine lines, and leave smaller-looking pores in its wake. Microdermabrasion also cultivates the development of collagen and a smoother smile mantel.

Once freed from the smothering oppression of dead skin cells, the face receives products more thoroughly and directly, which is why Corduck applies a customized mask right away. An oxygen treatment mechanically inserts fresh molecules of Earth’s most useful element directly into pores, helping to further stimulate collagen and prevent breakouts. The treatment also tones down undesired redness associated with broken capillaries and greenness associated with wearing a dollar-bill mask for president’s day. To conclude the indulgent bodily renaissance, an aesthetician’s expert digits massage the client's arms, shoulders, necks, and hands to leave muscles as relaxed as a hammock on vacation.
