Treatments can be done every 10-30 days, depending on your skin.

What is the process for a microdermabrasion treatment?

First, we will cleanse the skin to remove any make-up and oils. Once the skin is dry, we perform the treatment. Clean crystals brush over your face, exfoliating the top layer of your skin. The dirty crystals are then collected in a bottle and disposed of. After the treatment, there will be residual crystals on your face which are brushed off. A cold, wet towel is applied to the face as well as a hydrating mask if necessary. Finally, we apply a moisturizer with SPF.

What type of skin care should I use following my treatment?

It is very important that you use a strong SPF for 3-5 days following your treatment. Once we exfoliate the top layer of skin, you are more susceptible to the sun's harmful rays. Of course, it is very important to use quality skin care each day.
