Frequently Asked Questions

Microdermabrasion

What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is an aesthetic procedure where the skin is exfoliated mechanically. Focused columns of fine, sterile, inert aluminum oxide crystals are targeted at the outer layer of the skin, which removes cells of the skins outermost layer. The crystal and skin cells are vacuumed off of the skin by the unit simultaneously. This process rapidly removes the damaged layer of surface skin cells revealing fresh skin and stimulating cell rebuilding.

How does microdermabrasion work?
A fine jet of medical-grade aluminum oxide crystals are applied to the skin gently via a hand piece of the main unit. When the crystals make contact with the skins surface, the dead outer layer of skin is removed. The vacuum pressure of the system removes the dead skin and crystals at the same time, and transport them safely to the units waste container. Sessions usually comprise of around 45 minutes each.

What skin complaints does microdermabrasion treat?
Microdermabrasion offers a solution to a wide variety of skin complaints including acne, acne scarring, congested and spotty skin, enlarged pores, blackheads, dull skin, chicken pox scars, fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots or pigmentation.

Can any type of skin be treated by microdermabrasion?
Yes, regardless of age or skin colour. Almost any area of the skin can be treated with microdermabrasion, including the face and neck, elbows, knees, hands, feet, and shoulders. Microdermabrasion is also a useful treatment for stretch marks on the abdomen or hips.
