Is Microdermabrasion right for your skin?

Microdermabrasion is an advanced skin exfoliation and rejuvenation treatment.

Using a gentle vacuuming system and diamond tips, microdermabrasion buffs away the dead skin layer. This technique removes dull, dead skin cells unclogs your pores and polishes your skin. Microdermabrasion increases blood flow to your skin. Increased blood flow improves collagen and elastin production and oxygenates your skin.

Think of it like removing plaque from your teeth when you brush.

Microdermabrasion is one of the most popular anti-aging skincare treatments available. It's a non-invasive treatment that's used to treat many skin concerns - with no downtime.

Premature skin ageing

As we age, our natural cell turnover slows down and can leave our skin looking tired, dull or lacklustre. Microdermabrasion works to stimulate collagen and speed up cell renewal and turnover. This process stimulates the skin to create newer, younger-looking layers of skin.

Minimise Fine Lines

Microdermabrasion removes the top layer of the epidermis. Dead skin cells sitting in and around fine lines and wrinkles are removed, reducing the shadowing effect and making them much less noticeable.

Fewer acne breakouts and less congestion

The vacuum suction unclogs pores and removes blockages to help reduce acne, blackheads and breakouts.

Reduce the appearance of enlarged pores

Microdermabrasion reduces the build-up of sebum and debris in your pores and may help reduce pore size over time.

Brighter and even skin tone

Uneven skin tone is common and can make you feel self-conscious of skin spots and blotchy skin. Microdermabrasion lightens (or removes) hyperpigmentation, melasma and UV damage. You can reveal a smoother, even skin tone with a series of regular treatments.

Smoother skin texture

As we age, our natural cell turnover slows down and can leave our skin looking tired, dull, dry and flaky. By buffing away and vacuuming the dead skin layer microdermabrasion leaves your skin smooth, fresh and radiant.

Increased collagen production

Microdermabrasion increases the number of collagen fibres, which become thicker and more robust. The number of elastin fibres also increase. The number and size of fibroblasts (the cells that make collagen) also increase.

The instant effect of microdermabrasion on the skin surface immediately isn't the only benefit. Increased natural collagen production and cell renewal will continue to deliver results long after your treatment.

A series of regular treatments will reduce the appearance of fine lines, hyperpigmentation, melasma and UV damage. Your skin texture will be smooth, soft and youthful. You'll experience fewer outbreaks and clogging, and your pores will look smaller.
