Our team of skilled medical aestheticians offer the highest level of care and expertise, providing optimal results for every patient.
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive, mechanical exfoliation procedure that uses fine crystals or a diamond-tipped wand to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells gently. This process reveals a smoother, fresher layer of skin underneath. This procedure is ideal for those looking to enhance their skin’s tone and texture without downtime or invasive treatments.
Benefits of Microdermabrasion include
- Improves Skin Texture and Tone: Microdermabrasion targets dead skin cells and promotes collagen production, leaving the skin smoother and brighter.
- Reduces the Appearance of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The exfoliation process promotes cell turnover, reducing signs of aging.
- Minimizes Pores and Acne Scars: Microdermabrasion can offer visible improvement for those with enlarged pores or light acne scarring.
- Increases the Effectiveness of Skincare Products: By eliminating the dead skin layer, active ingredients in skincare products can go deeper and work more effectively.
- Safe for Most Skin Types: Microdermabrasion is a gentle treatment that can be customized to various skin types and conditions.
The Microdermabrasion Procedure at Silk Touch Medspa
At Silk Touch Medspa, microdermabrasion treatments are performed using cutting-edge equipment, ensuring precise and comfortable sessions. Here’s what you can expect during the process:
Consultation
Come in for your free Visia Skin analysis with one of our medical aestheticians to determine if microdermabrasions are suitable for your skin type and concerns.
Exfoliation Process
A diamond-tipped wand or crystal-based device gently exfoliates the skin’s surface during the treatment. The device also has a suction feature that removes dead skin cells and impurities.
Post-Treatment Care
After the procedure, your skin may feel slightly sensitive or flushed, similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually subsides after a few hours. We recommend hydrating and avoiding direct sun exposure for a few days.
Each session typically lasts 30–60 minutes, making it a convenient treatment option even for those with busy schedules.
Ideal Candidates for Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion suits individuals seeking a non-invasive way to improve their skin’s appearance. Ideal candidates include those who:
- Have mild acne scars or hyperpigmentation
- Are you experiencing dull, uneven skin tone
- Have fine lines, wrinkles, or large pores
- Wish to enhance the results of their skincare routine
- Prefer a treatment with no downtime
It’s important to note that microdermabrasion may not suit those with severe acne, eczema, or rosacea, as it can aggravate these conditions. Our practitioners will assess your skin and recommend the best course of action.
Before and Aftercare Tips
Before Your Treatment
- For a few days before the procedure, avoid direct sun exposure, waxing, or using harsh skincare products (e.g., retinol).
- Stay hydrated and keep your skin moisturized.
After Your Treatment
- Apply a hydrating moisturizer after cleansing to soothe your skin.
- Apply sunscreen with a high SPF daily, as your skin will be more reactive to UV rays after treatment.
- Avoid exfoliating products or treatments for at least a week.
