What Is Microdermabrasion?

Crystal Clear microdermabrasion is highly effective, offering noticeable results from the first treatment. Your skin will look visibly smoother and clearer immediately. 

Microdermabrasion is a safe, non-chemical, and non-invasive treatment which removes the outer layer of dead skin cells. Proven to deliver visible results, this treatment leaves your skin looking and feeling brighter and fresher. 

Crystal Clear microdermabrasion is an ideal treatment to help skin feel rejuvenated and younger. It can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation and light scarring. It is also suitable to help with issues like open/ clogged pores, sun spots, and acne. 

Microdermabrasion is fantastic for:

  • Camera-ready skin
  • Problematic skin
  • Acne Scarring
  • Post-operative scarring
  • Stretch marks
  • Skin rejuvenation
  • Wrinkle smoothing
  • Skin discolouration and uneven skin tone
  • Body polishing
  • Hand and foot rejuvenation

How Does It Work?

Your therapist will use a spray of ultra fine crystals to exfoliate the skin, removing the top layer of dry, dead skin to reveal the healthier looking skin beneath.

This process can help to improve the appearance of skin imperfections by removing the top layer of damaged skin.

What To Expect

Microdermabrasion could be likened to a high-powered scrub. It is a quick, painless treatment in which microcrystals are sprayed onto the skin, and simultaneously vacuumed up to exfoliate the skin and encourage better blood flow to the area.

The treatment only takes around 15-30 minutes, and you will be able to see results after one session. However, it is important to remember that this is not an aggressive treatment, and results will be progressive. So, for more significant results we would usually advise a course of 6-10 sessions. 

Contraindications

Microdermabrasion is not recommended for people who are pregnant or who have:

  • Deep scars
  • Active keloids
  • Active acne (stages 3 and 4)
  • An autoimmune disease

Before your treatment

Avoid chemical peels or other skin procedures such as collagen injections for two to three weeks before undergoing microdermabrasion.

Please avoid any retinols for 3-4 days prior to treatment.

After your treatment

  • No sauna/swimming pools/excessive heat for 24 hours
  • No make up for 24 hours
  • Use SPF 30+ daily
  • Only use gentle products for the following 3-4 days
  • Avoid peels and laser procedures for the following 2 weeks

For Best Results (How many treatments)

You will see the difference after just one treatment, however a course of 6-10 treatments will deliver more significant results for problematic skin.

Down Time

Microdermabrasion is a gentle treatment, so there is usually no downtime. Sensitive skin may just feel a little more sensitive for a short time after the treatment.

Skin Type

Microdermabrasion uses non-allergenic crystals to treat the skin, it is an excellent treatment for skin that is sensitive to chemicals.
