WrinklesHow Is It Done?Microdermabrasion is performed with a jet of fine crystals, which is vacuumed across the skin's surface, removing the dead and damaged cells.

Your therapist will analyze your skin condition and choose the most suitable treatment for you. The result will leave you with soft, smooth, healthier and youthful looking skin.

What to Expect After Various Treatment LevelsThe skin may feel tight as if exposed to the sun or wind for a while after treatment. Some skins may peel. Keep the skin well moisturized with the proper products as advised by your therapist.

Deeper treatment level for more blemished or thicker skin: The skin will appear slightly red and swollen from a few hours to a few days for more sensitive skins. Some skins may peel.

Deep treatment for scar tissue and stretch marks (striae): The skin will look red and may swell. Slight blood spotting may occur immediately after treatment and healing time may take three to four days or longer. It is worthwhile waiting for the results.

Stretch MarksCaring for the Treated Area

  • Protection: Your fresh, newly exposed skin will be delicate. Protect it from the sun by using a moisturizing sun block cream. Your therapist will advise you on the most appropriate products for your skin.
