Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive procedure to treat uneven skin tone and texture.
What is it?
As we mature, our skin starts to lose its suppleness, and the production of our collagen and elastin proteins slows, making our skin seem lackluster and more prone to damage, scarring, and blemishes. Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive aesthetic procedure that revitalizes the skin by eliminating dead skin cells and encouraging cell regeneration, leading to a more even and glowing complexion. It also enhances the appearance of skin damaged by sun exposure, reducing fine lines and wrinkles and leaving the skin looking rejuvenated and radiant!
Microdermabrasion is suitable for both men and women of all ages and skin types.
What to expect
Microdermabrasion is an advanced exfoliation method that incorporates a specialized tool featuring a rough surface to subtly exfoliate the top layer of the skin, removing dead skin cells in the process. During the procedure, you might experience a sensation that feels like something scraping on the skin. This is a normal part of the process and is not associated with pain. Treatment time depends on the size of the area being treated and the severity of your concerns. In most cases, you can expect to be in and out of your appointment within an hour.
Post-procedure, your skin might seem slightly reddened or warm, but this typically diminishes within a few hours, leaving your skin feeling fresh, smooth, and radiating a healthy glow. A bonus advantage is that your skincare products will penetrate your skin more effectively because the dry, dead skin cells have been eliminated.
Note: At the time, microdermabrasion is only offered in our Glenview location.
