Microdermabrasion
Why Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive technique that effectively refreshes the tone and texture of the skin. It has been proven beneficial in enhancing the look of sun-damaged skin, reducing wrinkles, treating acne, and addressing other common concerns.
The procedure uses a special applicator with an abrasive surface to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it.

Getting Ready for Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical procedure that requires minimal invasiveness. There is very little preparation required before the treatment.
You should have a conversation with a skincare expert about your skin issues to determine if microdermabrasion is a suitable option for you. Inform them about any previous cosmetic treatments and surgeries, as well as allergies and medical conditions that you may have.
Before your treatment, you may receive instructions advising against exposing yourself to the sun, using tanning creams or waxing for around a week. You might also be advised to refrain from using exfoliating creams and masks for approximately three days prior to your treatment.
Make sure to thoroughly cleanse your face and remove any makeup before the procedure commences.
