Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Microdermoabrasion.

Microdermoabrasion uses a diamond tip or crystal spray and vacuum suction to mechanically exfoliate the outer skin layer. You’ll feel mild abrasion or light vibration; most clients describe it as a gentle scratching sensation with minimal discomfort and no anesthesia required.

Ideal candidates are those with dull texture, fine lines, mild sun damage, or superficial acne scars. It suits most skin types, though not recommended for active rosacea, eczema, open wounds, or recent chemical peels—consult our technician for a personalized assessment.

Many clients see initial improvement after one session, but a series of four to six treatments spaced two to four weeks apart provides more significant, lasting results. Maintenance treatments every one to three months help sustain improvements and skin health.

Downtime is minimal—expect light redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity for 24 to 48 hours. Avoid sun exposure, exfoliating products, and hot showers immediately after. Most people can return to normal activities quickly and apply makeup the next day if desired.

Yes—Microdermoabrasion can complement chemical peels, hydrating facials, and professional serums when scheduled appropriately. Avoid combining multiple aggressive procedures on the same day; our technicians will design a safe sequence tailored to your skin and treatment goals.

Prepare by avoiding retinoids, waxing, and tanning for 48–72 hours and stop exfoliating products one week before. Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, rich hydration, strict sunscreen use, and avoiding strenuous exercise or sauna for at least 24–48 hours.
