If you are looking to reduce minor to moderate fine lines, treat sun damaged skin, reduce mild hyperpigmentation, control acne symptoms, or receive rejuvenation of overall skin health, a microdermabrasion series may be a good start. Microdermabrasion is a great treatment for the client who cannot have any downtime and is looking for a cost-effective treatment option. It is also a great addition to increase the effectiveness of other treatments and may be combined with chemical peels or performed after Sublative treatments. We also often recommend microdermabrasion as part of a maintenance plan following more aggressive treatments. This treatment helps maintain good exfoliation of the skin and allows for better product absorption. While most people are a candidate for microdermabrasion, a full medical history will be taken prior to performing a microdermabrasion to make sure this treatment is right for you.

The DiamondTome Microdermabrasion System removes the topmost layer of skin by gently exfoliating the skin with natural diamond chips bonded to the tip of a wand, while vacuuming the exfoliated skin cells away in a controlled manner. Removing this outer layer leaves a smoother texture and promotes the growth of healthy new skin. Unlike other exfoliation treatments, the DiamondTome Microdermabrasion System uses no loose abrasives to contaminate you or the environment. Microdermabrasion also stimulates the vascular circulation to the surface of the skin resulting in a healthier and firmer appearance. Treatments can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, back, legs, elbows and feet. It can be used alone or in combination with other treatments. For best results your initial microdermabrasion treatment should be done in a series to achieve the maximum benefits.

You may resume your normal activities immediately following this treatment. You can use a mineral makeup directly after treatment and our skin care provider will make recommendations on what products you can use after the treatment is over. You can resume your normal skin care within 1 day after your treatment. You may experience some mild flaking for a few days. Be sure to avoid direct sun exposure and use a broad spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen daily.

How long the results last are very much influenced by how you take care of your skin after your treatment. The use of proper skin care and avoiding excess sun exposure and smoking will help maintain your results. Our skin care providers will make recommendations on how you can continue to benefit from the results of your procedure.

Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure and therefore is not covered by insurance. We do offer CareCredit, a 6 to 12 month interest-free payment plan designed for medical and cosmetic procedures.

Schedule a consultation with our doctor or estheticians. During this consultation you can explore all options for achieving the results you desire. We will be happy to discuss how microdermabrasion could be a part of a skin rejuvenation plan designed to meet your needs.
