What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a procedure that replenishes your skin’s natural tone and renews its texture. Microdermabrasion is able to treat a multitude of issues including sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, acne, and other skin-related conditions and concerns.
The procedure consists of a special applicator that has an abrasive surface gently sand away the thick outer layer of your skin leaving it rejuvenated. Our diamond-tip hand piece is designed to gently exfoliate dead skin cells while removing them at the same time. Removing this outer layer allows the skin to heal and become rejuvenated all at once. Microdermabrasion can be done to your face, neck, and chest and is safe for almost all skin types. It is not painful and should not be uncomfortable.
How to prepare and what to expect after?
Prior to your appointment our Esthetician will do a full evaluation of your skin and provide you with a clear answer if you’re a candidate for microdermabrasion. The only thing to do prior to your appointment is remove any makeup and cleanse your face.
There is little to no downtime after microdermabrasion and you will be able to leave feeling rejuvenated and continue daily activities. Keep your skin well hydrated and use gentle skin products, avoid using topical acne medications for at least a 24 hour period. If you know your skin is typically sensitive we suggest staying out of the sun for a few weeks post treatment.
The number of sessions you may need will be depend on the severity of your skin concerns and can be discussed while our Esthetician creates your personalized treatment plan.
