Microdermabrasion

What Is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive superficial exfoliation treatment that removes the uppermost layer of dead skin cells (stratum corneum.) 

How Many Treatments are Recommended?

We recommend a series of treatments, spaced at least a week or so apart. After the initial treatment course, maintenance treatments are recommended often.

What can Microdermabrasion do for my skin?

Microdermabrasion can improve uneven skin tone and issues with pigmentation.

Working in the superficial layers of the skin, it can aid in the appearance of acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and skin texture. It reduces acne breakouts and oil production. It is known to be one of the best no-down-time anti-aging treatments. Microdermabrasion promotes the production of collagen and elastin and actually helps thicken the skin.

What Aftercare Do I Need To Follow?

You will be given an aftercare advice sheet to follow.

Should I Expect Any Side Effects After Treatment?

This treatment has no serious side effects. Immediately after the treatment, you may experience minor tightness or dryness in the skin, akin to a mild sunburn. This can be alleviated with a moisturizer and sunblock. Your skin may appear slightly red for a day after the treatment; however, this is entirely normal and temporary. No post-treatment effects will be serious enough to restrict you from resuming most normal activities.

When Will I See Results From Microdermabrasion Facials? 

The first treatment typically results in an immediate improvement in skin tone and a more youthful appearance. Results will depend on your individual skin tone, but you will walk out of the treatment seeing the effects, and they will be magnified in time and with every treatment.
