Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a technique that uses tiny crystals and the application of gentle suction to improve the texture of the skin. By buffing away the outer layers of the epidermis, the skin replenishes itself with new healthier and smoother skin. Superficial damage from the sun and texture changes can be improved with a series of microdermabrasion sessions.

Microdermabrasion is often performed in conjunction with other facial treatments to maximize the skin’s benefit. These may include medical grade facials or IPL therapy. Treatments are performed in-office and do not require anesthetic. A series of 5 sessions is recommended for the best result.
