FAQ ABOUT MICRODERMABRASION

How does Microdermabrasion work?

This non-invasive treatment works by using a special device. After the skin is thoroughly washed to remove any oil and dirt, the device is moved across the targeted area by a skilled and qualified professional. This ultimately erodes the dead skin cells, which are then removed from the treatment area. This promotes collagen growth, which leads to healthier looking skin.

Is the Treatment Safe for My Skin?

Microdermabrasion is a safe procedure with no surgery, anesthesia, or chemical treatments required.

Is There Downtime or Recovery After the Treatment?

Unlike many other common treatments, microdermabrasion requires no real recovery period or downtime. You can return to your normal routine immediately after your treatment. This includes returning to work or your other errands.

How Long is a Treatment?

This is known to be a quick treatment 30-45 minutes, making it a perfect option for someone with a busy schedule or lifestyle.

Who are Ideal Candidates for the Treatment?

An ideal candidate will be a healthy adult who has relatively minor skin conditions or imperfections.

What Should I Expect During My Initial Treatment?

Your treatment will be performed by a skilled expert. The first step is to thoroughly clean your face. Then, a handheld wand goes over the targeted skin area. The wand targets the damaged skin and removes the dead skin along with it. The procedure may be finished by applying a serum and/or moisturizer to protect the newly exposed skin.

Is the Treatment Uncomfortable?

Microdermabrasion is considered a comfortable, well-tolerated treatment. You may feel a mild scratching sensation as the device moves across the skin, but the feeling should be bearable overall.
