This treatment can improve the clarity, tone, and softness of the skin to leave patients looking and feeling great.
About Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a safe cosmetic procedure that uses a stream of tiny crystals to gently exfoliate the skin, revealing softer, smoother, more vibrant skin. Microdermabrasion is great as a proactive skin care measure because it can restore skin texture, remove acne scars, minimize fine lines, and remove sun spots with little recovery. Microdermabrasion is less intensive than chemical peels or laser procedures, which makes it a great option for patients who want minimal disruption to their daily lives.
Microdermabrasion provides predictable results through its gradual improvement of skin texture and tone.
What does microdermabrasion treat?
Microdermabrasion is most commonly used on the face, although it can also be used on the décolletage, arms, and hands. It is considered an excellent option for treating acne scars, aging, and sun damage.
How long does microdermabrasion treatment take?
A treatment on the entire face can take about 30 minutes. Microdermabrasion is not painful and there is no downtime, so it’s appropriate to do on your lunch break without coworkers noticing. It typically takes three to six treatments for results to be fully seen.
