Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin treatment that targets various concerns, including premature aging, uneven texture, and sun damage. Advanced Dermatology & Skin Cancer Associates offers this gentle exfoliating treatment to help you reveal smoother, brighter skin while stimulating collagen production for a more youthful complexion.
Exfoliate Damaged Skin And Revitalize Your Complexion
Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure that rejuvenates your skin by gently removing dead skin cells and impurities from the surface. Using a diamond-tipped wand, it exfoliates the outermost layer of the skin, revealing a smoother and brighter complexion underneath. This mechanical exfoliation not only enhances skin texture but also stimulates collagen production, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time. Microdermabrasion treats various skin concerns, such as dullness, uneven tone, and minor imperfections.
Microdermabrasion Treats:
- Premature aging signs such as fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin texture and roughness
- Sun damage, including sunspots and hyperpigmentation
- Dull complexion and lack of radiance
- Minor acne scars and superficial blemishes
- Enlarged pores and blackheads
- Uneven skin tone and discoloration
- Dry, flaky skin
- Mild to moderate acne outbreaks
How Does Microdermabrasion Work?
Microdermabrasion works through mechanical exfoliation using a handheld device with a diamond-tipped wand or crystals. As this wand is passed over the skin, it abrades the outermost layer, the stratum corneum, gently removing dead skin cells and impurities. This triggers the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen production and cell turnover. Over time, this leads to smoother texture, improved elasticity, and a more even complexion. Additionally, the removal of the top layer enhances the absorption and efficacy of skincare products.

Microdermabrasion FAQs
What can I expect during microdermabrasion?
During a microdermabrasion treatment, your skin will be gently exfoliated using a handheld device with a diamond-tipped wand or crystals. Your skincare professional will pass the wand over your skin, targeting areas of concern such as fine lines, wrinkles, sunspots, and uneven texture. The procedure is relatively painless and typically lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Is microdermabrasion safe for all skin types?
Microdermabrasion is generally safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, individuals with certain skin conditions, such as active acne, rosacea, eczema, or dermatitis, may not be suitable candidates. Our skincare provider will assess your skin and medical history to determine if microdermabrasion is right for you.
How long do the results of microdermabrasion last?
The duration of microdermabrasion results can vary depending on factors such as your skincare routine, sun exposure, and lifestyle habits. Generally, you can expect the results to last several weeks to months following a series of treatments. To maintain the results, schedule periodic maintenance treatments as needed.
Is microdermabrasion painful?
Microdermabrasion is well-tolerated by most individuals and is not considered painful. You may experience a slight sensation of scratching or tingling as the wand passes over your skin, but it should not be uncomfortable. If you have sensitive skin or are concerned about discomfort, you can discuss options for numbing creams with your skincare professional.
How many microdermabrasion sessions do I need to see results?
The number of microdermabrasion sessions needed to see results can vary depending on your skin concerns. While some people may notice improvement after just one session, a series of four to six sessions spaced two to four weeks apart is recommended for optimal results.
Is there any downtime after a microdermabrasion treatment?
Microdermabrasion involves minimal to no downtime. Following the treatment, you may experience some redness or mild irritation, but this subsides within a few hours. You can resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment, although it is important to avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen to protect your skin.
