Understanding microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation treatment that removes dead cells from the outer surface of the skin. A handheld device uses fine crystals or a diamond-tip surface, often with suction, to leave the skin feeling smoother.
It may be discussed for dullness, uneven surface texture and some superficial skin concerns. Your skin is assessed first, with advice about sensitivity, sun protection and whether a series of appointments would be appropriate.
What to expect
- Surface exfoliation with a handheld device
- Skin condition and sensitivity assessed first
- Gentle skincare and sun protection advised afterwards
