What is microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive method that provides improvement of skin tone and texture using light abrasion to deeply exfoliate the upper most skin layer.  Microdermabrasion is not painful and there is no healing or “downtime”.   The affects of microdermabrasion are cumulative and can provide improvement of skin tone and texture and problems associated with aging and sun damage including:

• Fine lines or wrinkles
• Enlarged Pores
• Dull, dry or rough skin

How does microdermabrasion work?

Using a wand which is placed along the skin, microdermabrasion circulates a jet of fine natural mineral crystals, allowing them to be brushed onto the surface of the skin to abrade dry, dead skin cells.  As the dead skin cells are removed, they are immediately vacuumed back into the headpiece along with the used crystals.  This provides both the force of velocity of the crystals against the skin and the removal of the skin cells by suction.  This activity is performed in seconds allowing the wand to be moved in precise patterns across the skin.

What results can I expect?

Skin tone and texture will be improved as dead skin cells are removed making way for new skin cells.  Skin will appear fresher, brighter and smoother.  Microdermabrasion reduces oiliness and the appearance of large pores.  It will clean out clogged pores which may improve complexion.  The effects of treatments are cumulative, so improvements steadily increase with each procedure.  Aged and sun damaged skin will gradually improve in appearance as new skin cells are formed.

What areas can be treated?

Microdermabrasion is generally performed on the face, but other areas that are commonly treated are the neck, chest, and hands.  Almost any area of the body can be safely treated.  If you have concerns about aged or sun damaged skin on a specific area of your body, call us to arrange a FREE consultation for an honest and confidential evaluation to see if microdermabrasion may benefit you.

Is it painful?

Microdermabrasion is not painful and no analgesics are required.

How many treatments will I need?

One treatment will improve the skin’s smoothness and diminish the appearance of enlarged pores, but a series of treatments is needed to maximize the effects.  To gain noticeable improvement for fine lines, pigmentation, and acne, a series of 4 to 8 treatments scheduled 7-10 days apart is recommended.  The effects of treatments are cumulative, so improvements steadily increase with each procedure.  Following each treatment, our estheticians will consult with you to evaluate your results, and make recommendations for further treatments until desired results are achieved.

Is it safe ?

In recent years, microdermabrasion has been safely performed on millions of patients worldwide.  It is safe for all skin types and colors.

How do I prepare for the treatment?

Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks prior to the procedure.  Discontinue the use of all topical exfoliating agents such as retinols, glycolic and salicylic acids 3 to 4 days prior to each treatment.  Avoid photo rejuvenation and other laser procedures.    No dermal tissue fillers and BOTOX Cosmetic injections to treated areas within one week of treatment.  Microdermabrasion must be performed on clean skin, so your make-up will be removed and skin will be washed with a mild cleanser prior to the procedure.

What will recovery be like?

Post-treatment discomfort is almost non-existent.  Immediately following microdermabrasion, the treated skin may appear slightly flushed or reddened, but this usually fades in a few hours.  Avoid harsh skin cleansers for 3 days following treatment.  No direct sun exposure or tanning for a minimum of 2 weeks following the procedure.  Use sunscreen of 30 SPF or higher following and between treatments.
