Dr. Huw Jones, M.D. - Aesthetic Physician 

Objectives:

• It is postulated that the combination of microdermabrasion, combined with superficial microneedling and M-SEQNC Serum, will result in improved transdermal delivery of the product and further improve outcomes.
• Microneedling is known to enhance transdermal drug and molecular delivery, microdermabrasion will remove the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the epidermis, which is the principal barrier to diffusion of drugs and molecules.
