What is microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a noninvasive skin treatment that gently exfoliates the outermost layer of dead skin cells, often improving tone, texture, and overall appearance. 

Your Dermatology of Miami practitioner uses a specialized technique to gently exfoliate your skin and clear away surface impurities using a spray of fine crystals or by gliding a diamond-tipped wand. This safe, painless treatment is ideal for refreshing and revitalizing your complexion without using harsh chemicals or any required downtime.

What issues can microdermabrasion address?

Microdermabrasion is a versatile treatment that can help with various skin concerns, including:

• Dull or uneven skin tone
• Mild acne and acne scarring
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Enlarged pores
• Age spots and sun damage
• Blackheads and clogged pores
• Rough or flaky skin texture

It can also enhance the absorption of skincare products by removing the layer of dead skin that can block their effectiveness.

How does microdermabrasion work?

During the treatment, your practitioner moves a handheld device across your skin, exfoliating the outer layer and vacuuming away the loosened dead skin cells. This process promotes circulation and encourages your skin’s natural healing while increasing collagen production and stimulating a brighter, smoother complexion. 

The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the area treated. It’s gentle enough for most skin types and requires no anesthesia or recovery time, making it a popular choice for those with busy schedules.

How long will my microdermabrasion results last?

The results of microdermabrasion are noticeable right away. Your skin feels softer, smoother, and looks more radiant. However, the effects aren’t permanent. Because skin naturally renews every few weeks, your dermatologist may recommend regular treatments to maintain the benefits. Plan to schedule sessions every 3-4 weeks, depending on your skin goals and type.

With consistent care and proper skincare between sessions, microdermabrasion can be effective in your ongoing routine for healthy, glowing skin. It’s an excellent option if you’re looking to maintain a refreshed and youthful appearance without invasive procedures.
