Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion uses a minimally abrasive instrument—either microparticles or a diamond-tipped wand—to gently buff the skin, removing the topmost layer. A vacuum then sucks up the exfoliated skin cells. Microdermabrasion removes pore-clogging dead skin cells, revealing a new layer of fresh, smooth skin underneath. The process may also boost the production of collagen and help minimize wrinkles over time.
This treatment can also be incorporated into a longer facial service, during which it removes skin to help serums penetrate more deeply. After treatment, the skin may have some redness and swelling and should subside within a few hours.
For our Classic Microdermabrasion, our esthetician moves a pen-like wand—with a diamond-studded tip—gently over your face in short, quick strokes, breaking up dull, dead skin cells as the wand whisks them away.
