Microdermabrasion
Why Skinique Microdermabrasions?
Microdermabrasion is not new in the skincare world—it was approved by the FDA more than 20 years ago in 1996. For this reason, there are many cosmetic and medical professionals that have mastered the treatment, meaning it is a tried and true solution at this point. It helps treat a very wide range of skin conditions and insecurities, including everything from stretch marks to age spots to sun damage. Microdermabrasion essentially works as a more advanced form of exfoliation. While the treatment should be completed by a trained professional, it's relatively quick and simple with little aftercare.
Our experienced skincare pro will be able to design a plan to address skincare concerns, some of which may require multiple microdermabrasion treatments. Whatever skin issues a person is experiencing, microdermabrasion offers an easily understandable and virtually painless solution.
The Process
Microdermabrasion works on enhancing skin tone by promoting skin growth and restoring the skin's clarity and elasticity. This procedure is designed for skin with stretch marks, minor acne scars, enlarged pores, wrinkles, fine lines, blackheads, uneven and granular skin, and sun damage.
Microdermabrasion produces results by cleansing and stimulating the skin with a crushed-diamond trip wand that softens skin irregularities, similar to the process of exfoliating. Microdermabrasion is done progressively instead of aggressively, unlike traditional dermabrasion or chemical peeling.
The process is virtually painless and can be performed on all skin types and tones, with no possibility of scarring or hypo pigmentation. Microdermabrasion results in your skin feeling fresh, tightened, and well oxygenated. A series of treatments may produce superb anti-aging results.

Following a microdermabrasion treatment, skin may be tender or red, but that will dissipate only a few hours after treatment. There is virtually no downtime following the procedure, it is only important that patients keep skin hydrated to avoid flakiness, and wear sunscreen daily.
