What Is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a professional exfoliation treatment that uses a diamond-tip resurfacing device to gently abrade the outermost layer of dead skin cells while simultaneously vacuuming away debris.
This process encourages healthy skin regeneration, improves circulation, and leaves the skin feeling smoother, clearer, and refreshed.
What Skin Concerns Does Microdermabrasion Treat?
Microdermabrasion is suitable for improving:
-
Dull or uneven skin tone
-
Rough or uneven skin texture
-
Congested or enlarged pores
-
Fine lines and superficial wrinkles
-
Sun-damaged skin
-
Mild acne and post-acne marks
It is ideal for clients wanting visible results with minimal downtime.
Microdermabrasion Step-by-Step Treatment Process
Step 1: Skin Consultation & Analysis
Your treatment begins with a professional skin consultation to assess your skin condition, sensitivities, and treatment goals. This ensures Microdermabrasion is appropriate and safely customised for your skin.
Step 2: Deep Cleanse & Skin Preparation
The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove makeup, oil, and surface impurities, preparing the skin for effective exfoliation.
Step 3: Microdermabrasion Exfoliation
A specialised Microdermabrasion handpiece is used to gently exfoliate the skin using controlled suction and resurfacing technology. Dead skin cells are removed, revealing fresher, smoother skin beneath.
This step also stimulates circulation and supports natural collagen production.
Step 4: Targeted Skin Treatment
Following exfoliation, calming or corrective serums are applied to the skin. With the removal of dead skin cells, active ingredients can penetrate more effectively, enhancing treatment results.
Step 5: Hydration & Skin Protection
The treatment is completed with soothing, hydrating products and sun protection to support the skin barrier and protect newly exfoliated skin.
Is Microdermabrasion Painful?
Microdermabrasion is generally well tolerated. Clients may feel a mild scratching or vibrating sensation, but the treatment should not be painful. Intensity is adjusted to suit your comfort level and skin sensitivity.
Is There Any Downtime?
There is minimal to no downtime. Mild redness may occur immediately after treatment but typically subsides within a few hours. Most clients return to normal activities straight away.
How Often Should I Have Microdermabrasion?
For optimal skin results, Microdermabrasion is recommended every 2–4 weeks, depending on your skin concerns and goals. It can also be incorporated into a customised skin treatment plan.
