ABOUT MICRODERMABRASION

WHAT IT IS

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that exfoliates the top layer of skin.

HOW IT WORKS

Microdermabrasion uses a handheld device with a tip that is an abrasive surface to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it. This addresses tightening the skin and removing dead skin cells. There is no mess involved and zero downtime.

WHAT TO EXPECT

After a microdermabrasion treatment, you may experience the following:

  • Mild redness or irritation: This is normal and should subside within a few hours.

  • Dryness: Your skin may feel dry for a few days after the treatment.

  • Sensitivity: Your skin may be more sensitive to the sun temporarily.

  • Improved skin texture: You should notice smoother, softer skin within a few days of the treatment.

It's crucial to adhere to your skincare professional's post-care instructions. This is the key to ensuring your skin heals properly and may include avoiding harsh products, using a gentle moisturizer, and protecting your skin from the sun.

Most people experience minimal discomfort after microdermabrasion. However, contact your skin care professional immediately if you experience severe pain, swelling, or other unusual symptoms.
