Types of Microdermabrasion

Not all microdermabrasion is the same. Two main methods dominate the scene:

Crystal Microdermabrasion

• Fine crystals are gently sprayed onto your skin.
• A built-in vacuum suctions away dead cells and crystals.
• Great for targeted buffing of rough patches.

Diamond Microdermabrasion

• A diamond-tipped wand softly glides across your face.
• No loose particles — perfect if you prefer a cleaner feel.
• Suitable for extra-sensitive areas like around the eyes.

Both techniques kickstart cell renewal. You’ll notice smoother texture and improved tone after just one session. Curious about pairing this with other med spa favourites? Explore our med spa service offerings

Step-by-Step: The Treatment Process

  1. Consultation
    We chat about your skin goals. Any allergies? Got a special event? We tailor every step.

  2. Deep Cleanse
    Your skin is cleansed to remove dirt, oil, and last night’s makeup.

  3. Exfoliation
    Whether crystals or diamond tip, we work in gentle circular motions. You might feel a slight scratching sensation. Totally normal.

  4. Hydration & Protection
    A soothing moisturiser and mineral sunscreen seal the deal.

Most sessions last 30–60 minutes. You can settle in, take a breather, maybe even nap. When you wake, you’re greeted with fresh, glowing skin.

Why Choose Microdermabrasion? Benefits Explained

Microdermabrasion does more than buff away dead skin. Check this out:

  • Smoother Skin: Wave goodbye to rough patches.
  • Brighter Complexion: Your skin takes on a healthy glow.
  • Fine Line Reduction: Boosted collagen can soften those tiny wrinkles.
  • Even Skin Tone: Dark spots and hyperpigmentation look less obvious.
  • Pore Refining: Unclogged, smaller-looking pores mean fewer breakouts.

Plus, your other treatments—chemical peels, serums, masks—soak in deeper and work better. Want to explore more facial options? Browse our best facial treatment services

Preparation Tips Before Your Facial

A little prep goes a long way. Here’s how you set yourself up for success:

  • Avoid sunbathing or tanning beds for a week prior.
  • Skip retinoids, glycolic acid, and strong exfoliants for three days.
  • Arrive with a clean face—no makeup or heavy creams.
  • Let us know about any skin sensitivities or medications.

Doing this ensures your skin is calm and ready for transformation.

Aftercare for Lasting Results

Post-treatment care is key. Keep that glow going with these steps:

  • Use a gentle cleanser morning and night.
  • Apply a soothing moisturiser twice daily.
  • Shield your face with SPF 30 or higher—no exceptions.
  • Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
  • Hold off on harsh products (peels, retinoids, rough scrubs) for at least three days.
