Microdermabrasion Skin Resurfacing

About Microdermabrasion Skin Resurfacing

Microdermabrasion rejuvenates and revitalizes your skin and can be performed during lunchtime or in an afternoon. Microdermabrasion uses a fine jet of crystals to gently and painlessly exfoliate your skin while vacuum suction removes the crystals with the dead skin cells. You're left with new, softer skin and more even skin texture. In addition to surface exfoliation, microdermabrasion promotes the production of new cells in the deepest layer of the dermis, it cleans the pores, and stimulates collagen production that can further improve skin texture.

Microdermabrasion can be successfully used on light or dark skin to treat the face, neck, chest, arms, elbows, knees and hands. Microdermabrasion is generally indicated for:

  • Fine Lines and Wrinkles
  • Age Spots, Sun Damage and Hyperpigmentation
  • Acne Scars, Chickenpox Scars and Scratch Marks
  • Congested Skin, Enlarged Pores and Blemishes
  • Dull Skin

This simple and non-invasive procedure entails virtually no discomfort, down time or recovery. Patients typically experience some mild redness for about an hour after the procedure.

Additional Procedures

Microdermabrasion is extremely effective when combined with a glycolic peel to address discoloration and un-even skin texture.

Payment for Microdermabrasion

This procedure is considered cosmetic and therefore is not covered by insurance. The patient is responsible for payment. Our patient counselors can help you with your financial arrangements, including financing.
