Curious About Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a gentle, non-surgical procedure that exfoliates the outer layer of dead skin cells, presenting the fresh, radiant skin beneath. Tiny micro-crystals are sprayed onto the skin by a handheld device and then vacuumed away, effectively polishing the skin and promoting new cell growth.

This treatment is effective for the following concerns:

  • Acne and excess oil
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin tone and sun spots
  • Enlarged pores
  • Minor scars

Microdermabrasion Benefits

This non-invasive procedure requires no downtime, causes little discomfort, and produces an instant softening and smoothing of the skin. It addresses a variety of concerns with the superficial layer of the skin. Patients typically notice the following benefits after a microdermabrasion treatment:

  • Clearer, healthier skin
  • Reduced appearance of acne scars
  • Smoother, more youthful-looking skin
  • Refined skin tone, texture, and pigmentation

Who Is a Candidate for Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is beneficial for almost all skin types and can be an excellent option for individuals looking to enhance their skin's appearance. During your consultation, one of our experts will assess your skin and discuss what you would like to achieve to determine the best treatment plan for your needs. The following make ideal candidates for this treatment:

  • Patients in good overall health
  • Individuals without inflammatory skin conditions
  • Those not currently using medications that cause skin sensitivity (e.g., isotretinoin)
  • Those who do not have active skin infections or open wounds
  • Women who are not pregnant or breastfeeding

What to Expect During the Microdermabrasion Procedure

A small, handheld tool pushes the microdermabrasion’s micro-crystals out and vacuums them back up simultaneously, allowing them to rub across your skin for a thorough exfoliation. During your treatment, you may feel a sensation on your skin. Some people describe it as tugging, warmth, or even like being licked by a cat. Although this sensation may feel a little strange, the treatment shouldn’t be painful. A microdermabrasion treatment takes only about 30 minutes, making it very convenient for those with busy lives.

Treatment generally consists of three basic steps:

  1. Your technician will cleanse your skin thoroughly so the micro-crystals can reach your skin’s surface effectively.
  2. Next, they’ll use the wand on your face, followed by another cleansing procedure to remove any stray micro-crystals that may have escaped the tool’s vacuum.
  3. Finally, a moisturizer will be applied, and you’re on your way.

Microdermabrasion Recovery and Results

Our microdermabrasion procedure is relatively gentle, and the recovery is not difficult. Immediately after your treatment, your skin may be somewhat red and slightly irritated, as though you had a mild sunburn. You might notice that your skin continues feeling a little irritated or tight for a day afterward. Microdermabrasion works best if you have a series of treatments.

Although one treatment will provide a benefit and leave your skin feeling very soft and smooth, you’ll get greater benefits from having multiple treatments. Often, people schedule a series of five to 10 treatments, one or two weeks apart. The ideal schedule depends on what skin problems you’re trying to treat; ask your technician for recommendations for your specific situation.

Microdermabrasion Risks

Because it works on the most superficial layer of the skin, there are generally very few risks to microdermabrasion. However, if your skin is already fragile or irritated, then microdermabrasion might be too much for your skin to handle. The procedure could cause severe skin irritation or even bleeding if the skin is too fragile due to a preexisting situation. If you are not a good candidate for this microdermabrasion, we will help you with alternate skin treatment options to achieve your desired results.
