Polishing away the outer layers of skin can reveal the beautiful face that lies beneath, just as sanding down a redwood can reveal the handy toothpick that hides inside. Strip away excess exterior with today’s Groupon to Skin Perfection in Lathrup Village. Choose between the following options:

• For $49, you get one microdermabrasion and one skin peel over two visits (a $180 value).

• For $169, you get a series of four microdermabrasions and four skin peels over eight visits, plus a customized set of Grekin skincare products (a $595 total value). The set of skincare products includes the following:
• One cleanser
• One anti-inflammatory toner
• One refirming gel<p>

Under the direction of Dr. Steven Grekin, the staff at Skin Perfection revitalizes façades with cosmetic dermatology services that make use of a line of skincare products developed by Dr. Grekin himself. A 20–30 minute microdermabrasion session buffs away rough outer skin and imbedded sunglasses with the abrasive crystals of the DiamondTome skin-resurfacing system. Fine lines fade and blemishes slink away under the persuasive power of the mechanical suction that accompanies the skin skimming.

Clients can return two weeks later for an all-natural skin peel personally formulated by Dr. Grekin. After a thorough facial cleanse, aestheticians apply a thin layer of peel and leave it on the skin for 30–90 seconds before rapidly deactivating it with cold water. When used in tandem, the microdermabrasion and chemical peel trigger magnified skin renewal, repairing sun damage and diminishing acne. Like a save point in a video-game version of the Benjamin Button story, the set of take-home products preserves the progress that its user has made in looking younger.
