About Microdermabrasion

1. What is Microdermabrasion?
• Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that exfoliates the outer layer of the skin using fine crystals or a diamond-tipped wand. It helps to remove dead skin cells, improve skin texture, and stimulate new cell growth.
2. How does Microdermabrasion work?
• During the treatment, a device is used to gently abrade the skin’s surface with  a diamond tip, while simultaneously suctioning away the dead skin cells. This process promotes the regeneration of fresh, healthy skin.
3. What skin issues can Microdermabrasion address?
• Microdermabrasion is effective for treating a variety of skin concerns including dull skin, uneven texture, fine lines, acne scars, and congestion.

Treatment Details

1. How long does a Microdermabrasion session take?
• A typical Microdermabrasion session lasts approximately 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area and the specific protocol used.
2. Is the treatment painful?
• Microdermabrasion is generally well-tolerated with minimal discomfort. Patients may experience a slight tingling or scratchy sensation during the procedure.
3. How many sessions are needed for optimal results? For optimal results, we recommend scheduling microdermabrasion sessions every few months. While effective, microdermabrasion should be considered as part of a targeted skincare routine and not necessarily as a frequent or ongoing treatment.

Preparation and Aftercare

1. How should I prepare for a Microdermabrasion treatment?
• Avoid using strong exfoliants or retinoids for a few days before the treatment. Arrive with a clean face and avoid heavy makeup.
2. What should I expect after the treatment?
• Post-treatment, you may experience some redness and mild sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few hours to a few days.
3. Are there any specific aftercare instructions?
• Use gentle skincare products and avoid sun exposure. Apply a moisturizer and sunscreen regularly to protect and soothe your skin.

Results and Expectations

1. When will I see results from Microdermabrasion?
• Immediate improvements in skin texture and radiance can be seen right after the treatment. Full results, such as reduced fine lines and improved skin tone, develop over several sessions.
2. How long do the results last?
• Results can last several weeks to months, depending on your skin type and maintenance.
3. Are the results permanent?
• While Microdermabrasion provides significant improvements, it does not offer permanent solutions. Ongoing treatments and a proper skincare routine are necessary to maintain results.
