The procedure
Microdermabrasion At Work
What do I need to know?

Basically, microdermabrasion treatment involves removing dead skin cells and other impurities on the surface of the skin to get better-looking skin cells.

The Key Steps
What can I expect during the treatment?

Your makeup will be removed by your dermatologist, along with any oils or debris on your face, before the procedure starts. A gel or solution will be applied to your skin for protection. Your doctor will start the microdermabrasion after the preparation. The procedure will take away the dead cells on the surface layer of your skin. You will notice your skin will turn pink, and you will feel like you have sunburn after the treatment. Your derma will apply a soothing gel and moisturiser.

The Essential Actions
How long does the process last?

The procedure usually lasts for about 40 minutes to 1 hour, including the preparation and the procedure itself. This treatment is very convenient and causes no pain.

Safety And Comfortability
Is it safe?

Yes, it is safe to have a Microdermabrasion. You just need a short period of time to recover because it is minimally invasive. The treatment exfoliates the dead cells from the surface of the skin to reveal healthy skin cells. So yes, this is a safe therapy, even for sensitive skin like yours.

Security And Cosiness
Does it hurt?

You will not feel any hurt from microdermabrasion. It only sands away the dead cells on the surface of your skin. Although it is not painful, you may feel a pulling effect on your face.

Monthly Treatments For Best Results
How many Microdermabrasion treatments do I need?

Microdermabrasion can do wonders for revealing a clearer complexion. It helps to exfoliate your skin to reveal a smooth and young complexion. Get a once a month treatment to help you achieve better results.

Natural Vs. Chemical Exfoliation
Is Microdermabrasion better than Chemical Peels?

A device is used to remove the dead skin naturally during a microdermabrasion, while a chemical solution is used to exfoliate the top layer of the skin in chemical peels. They both have the advantage of helping you achieve good skin. The choice is yours.

Makeup After 24–48 Hours
Can I wear Makeup?

You should wait at least 24–48 hours after the treatment before applying makeup to your face. But make sure that this time you are fully healed and that your skin specialist has recommended or approved it.

Pre-treatment Recommendations To Adhere To
When should I contact my doctor after a Microdermabrasion?

If you notice that the treatment area is bleeding and has blisters, You should also call your doctor if you still have swelling after 3 days of treatment.
