Microdermabrasion

What Is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is an exfoliating technique that abrades the skin using a fine mist of microscopic crystals. The high pressure flow of crystals gently exfoliates and removes the outer layer of skin, encouraging new elastin and collagen formation. The younger, softer skin moves to the surface, producing significant textural and color changes.

Why should I choose this technique?
Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, effective and safe “lunch hour” treatment that leaves your skin revitalized and glowing. Normal activities can be resumed right away and it is effective on all skin colors and types. An immediate improvement in your appearance will be noticeable, with these effects increasing over the course of treatments.

How many treatments will I need?
Depending on the desired results and the area being treated, plan on 5 to 7 treatments spread out every 2 to 3 weeks. You will notice the skin will have a smoother texture and a more evenly colored tone. Once you achieve your desired results, a monthly maintenance is recommended to continue having your skin look radiant.

After treatment, what should I do?
Keep your skin well-moisturized and use sunscreen of SPF30 liberally, as photosensitivity may be increased as a result of treatment. Is there any downtime? No. You may resume back to work or regular routine immediately.

How can I maximize the results?
Periodic maintenance, combined with a customized product regimen is recommended for best results. Microdermabrasion can be performed as an individual procedure, or used in combination with some of our other treatments. For example, when used prior to an IPL treatment, overall results are optimally enhanced. Also, you may choose to add our Optimal Enhancement to your treatment as described below.

Is Microdermabrasion only for the face?
No. It is also commonly used on the chest area, the upper back and arms where there may be blemishes or sun damage. Hand Rejuvenation is also very popular.

How much does a treatment cost?
A microdermabrasion treatment on the face, back, chest or arms is $120.
