Microdermabrasion is a gentle treatment intended to exfoliate dead and damaged cells. The promotion of cellular turnover can reduce or eliminate irritation and inflammation very quickly.
How It Works
Woman with hands to her face | Get smoother skin with microdermabrasion Microdermabrasion is like a mild “sandblasting” for your skin. Treatment involves directing tiny crystals of aluminum dioxide toward the top layer of skin. Old cells are removed by this action, allowing new, healthy cells to shine through.
Patients appreciate the results that come from this comfortable procedure, and the fact that there is no downtime. At most, slight redness occurs from the exfoliation process, but this fades quickly.
Microdermabrasion is not just for the face! We can also treat the:
- Hands
- Chest
- Neck
Treatment typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete, and is suitable for a wide variety of skin tones. The effect of microdermabrasion on the skin makes it an appropriate form of treatment for fine lines, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and acne scarring.
How Long Do Results Last?
Although improvement to tone and texture can be seen immediately after your first microdermabrasion treatment, we may suggest a series of treatments depending on your goals
and the condition of your skin. The gentleness of this procedure makes it a great addition to your normal beauty regimen, with visits scheduled as often as every few weeks.
