Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Microdermabrasion.

Microdermabrasion sprays fine crystals and suctions them away, exfoliating dead surface cells. This mechanical resurfacing refines texture, reduces dullness, and reveals fresher skin, producing a smoother, brighter, and more polished complexion with minimal downtime.

Most clients describe microdermabrasion as gentle and non-invasive, with mild suction sensations but little to no pain. Some temporary redness or sensitivity may occur afterward, but discomfort usually subsides within hours and can be managed with soothing post-care.

A standard appointment lasts about 30 to 60 minutes depending on treatment area and customization. Initial consultations may be longer to assess skin and recommend a tailored plan for optimal results.

Individual needs vary, but most clients benefit from a series of 4-6 treatments spaced two to four weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every 1-3 months help preserve improvements and support ongoing skin renewal.

Ideal candidates have dull, rough, or uneven skin, mild sun damage, clogged pores, or light scarring. Not recommended for active rosacea, severe acne, open wounds, or recent chemical peels—consult our therapists for personalized assessment.

Avoid heavy exfoliation, retinoids, and sun exposure for several days prior. Arrive with clean skin, avoid makeup, and disclose medications or recent procedures. Follow pre-care instructions to reduce sensitivity and optimize results.
