Working in tandem with Dr. Zina Turovsky, Leon Turovsky, M.D., leads Sheepshead Bay Laser Center as Medical Director and Cosmetic Laser Operator. Among the procedures offered by the team are skin rejuvenation, spider and varicose vein treatment, Botox and Dysport injections, and microdermabrasion.
A well-established skin care technique, microdermabrasion is sometimes called an “instant facelift” for its effectiveness in bringing out the youth and beauty of the skin without invasive cosmetic surgery. The term microdermabrasion encompasses a variety of techniques and solutions that use extremely small particles to buff the outer layer of the skin, the epidermis.
Made of dead skin cells, the epidermis covers and protects the live skin cells, which are still maturing. Through carefully removing some of these dead skin cells in the stratum corneum, fresh and rejuvenated skin is allowed to show through. The microdermabrasion techniques offered by practitioners such as Leon Turovsky, M.D. never penetrate to the deeper dermis layers, which could cause pain and permanent harm to the skin.
