Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin exfoliation treatment that removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells to improve skin texture, tone, and clarity. It’s like a deep polish for your face.


How It Works:

  1. A handheld device uses:

    • Fine crystals (crystal microdermabrasion) or

    • A diamond-tipped wand (diamond microdermabrasion)
      to gently exfoliate the skin.

  2. At the same time, a vacuum suction removes dead skin and debris.


Benefits:

  • Smoother, brighter skin

  • Reduces appearance of:

    • Fine lines and wrinkles

    • Mild acne scars

    • Age spots and hyperpigmentation

    • Enlarged pores

  • Helps skincare products absorb better afterward


🕒 Treatment Time & Downtime:

  • Takes about 30–60 minutes

  • Little to no downtime – some redness may occur but typically fades in a few hours

  • Often done in a series (every 2–4 weeks for best results)


⚠️ Who Should Avoid It:

  • Those with active acne, rosacea, eczema, or broken capillaries

  • Very sensitive or inflamed skin


🧴 At-Home vs. Professional:

  • At-home devices are gentler and suitable for maintenance.

  • Professional treatments are deeper and more effective for stubborn skin concerns.
