Benefits of Microdermabrasion Facial Q&A

Microdermabrasion is the process of gently removing the outer layer of skin with a minimally invasive abrasive instrument. These treatments can renew your skin tone, texture, and appearance. The special applicator used throughout the process has an abrasive surface that softly sands the skin for a brighter, healthy skin glow. Similar to a chemical peel, microdermabrasion is a form of skin care that deeply exfoliates and rejuvenates your face. Although you will start to notice the benefits of microdermabrasion almost immediately, consider booking many treatments for long-term results.

When you book an appointment, our medical esthetician will first assess your face and make sure you’re a fit for this treatment. Next, you’ll book an appointment that should take about 30-40 minutes for face microdermabrasion with an additional 20 minutes for neck microdermabrasion. Your face will be gently cleansed and a small medical instrument will swipe up and down your face spraying crystals that will exfoliate the dead skin cells off. At the end of the process, the younger, healthier skin underneath will be revealed. Depending on age and skin damage, you may need to book several treatments. Once or twice a month, come visit La Vie MedSpa for long lasting results that will help your face glow!

Microdermabrasion not only improves skin appearance, but also reduces sun damage, acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and overall tone.

Other than very small amounts of swelling, redness, and tenderness, microdermabrasion is great for your skin. These side effects should go away within only a few short hours. If you experience dry skin after exfoliation, moisturize with a gentle cream. Book an appointment with La Vie MedSpa medical estheticians to understand your skin type and decide what the best treatment is for you. This will ensure no serious or long-lasting side effects occur.

Microdermabrasion has numerous benefits! Long term treatments can improve dry or oily skin, improve the quality of your complexion, brighten your skin, unclog pores, and even your skin tone. Microdermabrasion uses tiny crystals that gently exfoliate the skin’s outer layer to remove dead skin cells. Revealing smoother skin underneath that makes you look healthier, younger, and the most radiant version of yourself. Fortunately, your skin should heal within a few hours and go back to completely normal within a couple of days. The positive effects of microdermabrasion can last up to a month or even a few months depending on your skin health.
