This revolutionary skin restoration and process is commonly referred to as "the lunch time facial" because the procedure takes only minutes to perform and most people can return to work immediately. This action causes little or no discomfort while it gently removes the outer layer of the skin. By repeating this process over the course of several weeks or months, younger, softer, more radiant skin moves to the surface. Ask your doctor or skin care professional to determine if you are a candidate for microdermabrasion. Together, you will determine the number and regularity of treatments best for you. You'll need to avoid Alpha-Hydroxy Acid, Glycolic Acid products and skin exfoliation scrubs for 72 hours both before and after a treatment.
Microdermabrasion does not hurt although it may sting a little around the eye area. No anesthetic is required.
You'll need to avoid direct sun exposure for seven days after a treatment. Also avoid liquid foundations or pressed powder foundations for 24 hours after a treatment. Eye make-up, lipstick etc. may be applied immediately after a treatment.
Because this procedure is non-invasive and non-surgical, you may return to your normal activities immediately.
Realistic expectations: The vast majority of our patients are extremely happy with their appearance after microdermabrasion, however, we cannot guarantee you will have the results you desire.
