What is MDA (Microdermabrasion)?

Microdermabrasion is a mechanical form of skin exfoliation using an abrasive diamond cut combined with suction. It exfoliates the upper layers of the skin and stimulates collagen growth in the lower layers.

Fewer break outs, refined pores, renewed elasticity

Microdermabrasion intensity can be varied to suit an individuals’ skin concerns from light exfoliation to deep resurfacing. Subsequently you see an improvement in the skin’s texture, more even colouring, fine lines, fewer break outs, refined pores, renewed elasticity and a more youthful appearance.

Diamond & Suction

Suction controls the depth of treatment, as well as velocity of material (high suction, high velocity) and stimulates the blood flow for the oxygenated and nourishment benefits, while activating the lymph system for natural cleansing and draining. Suction is essential for the full regenerating possibilities.

  • Ageing and sun damaged skin

How many sessions of Microdermabrasion do I need?

Microdermabrasion is designed to be performed as a course of treatments. Initially it is recommended you begin with 6 weekly sessions, however lines, scarring and other severe skin conditions will take many more regular sessions which will be discussed with you during your consultation.

How does my skin look after a Microdermabrasion treatment?

  • Mild to moderate redness and sensitivity (similar to sunburn) lasting 12-48 hours

  • Skin may feel dry and tight

  • Some darkened areas of skin may occur (this is the skin preparing to shed)

  • Varying amounts of flaking can occur approximately 3 days after your treatment

  • After the skin has shed, it has a healthy glow and feels softer and smoother

Possible complications of Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a wonderful and innovative Aesthetic facial procedure that is recommended for any skin type. That said, it is important clients have a realistic expectation when undergoing the procedure.
