Microdermabrasion
Controlled exfoliation for smoother texture and renewed radiance.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive resurfacing treatment that uses controlled mechanical exfoliation to lift away compacted dead cells from the skin's surface. It can make rough, dull or congested skin feel smoother and look brighter without the recovery associated with deeper resurfacing.
The treatment intensity is adjusted to your skin. It is best suited to surface concerns and can support a regular skin-maintenance plan, but it is not used over inflamed acne, broken skin or conditions that need medical care.
