Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Microdermabrasion.

Microdermabrasion is generally safe for many skin types, including mild sensitivity, but active acne or broken skin should be avoided. Our estheticians assess your skin, adjust pressure and technique, and may recommend alternatives or a patch test for safety.

Most Microdermabrasion sessions last 30 to 60 minutes, including cleansing, treatment, and post-care. Full-face treatments commonly take about 45 minutes. Your esthetician customizes timing based on skin concerns and any additional serums or masks used.

For noticeable results we usually recommend a series of 4 to 6 treatments spaced two to four weeks apart. Individual needs vary; after the initial series, maintenance sessions every one to three months help preserve smoother texture and brightness.

Downtime is minimal. Common temporary effects include mild redness or sensitivity and slight flaking for a day or two. Avoid direct sun, harsh exfoliants, and heavy makeup immediately after. We provide post-care guidance and soothing products to aid recovery.

Yes, Microdermabrasion can complement serums, masks, and LED therapy for enhanced results, but aggressive chemical peels or retinoid treatments should be scheduled separately. Our therapists evaluate your skin and recommend safe combinations and timing.

Avoid intense sun exposure, tanning beds, chemical peels, or strong retinoids for at least one to two weeks beforehand. Disclose medications and recent treatments during consultation. These precautions reduce sensitivity and ensure a safer, more effective session.
