Microdermabrasion is an advanced, non-invasive clinical procedure designed to improve skin texture and appearance. This treatment utilises a diamond-tipped wand to gently exfoliate and suction the outermost layer of the epidermis, effectively removing dead skin cells, impurities, and surface-level congestion.
By stimulating cell turnover and product absorption, microdermabrasion promotes brighter, smoother skin. The treatment's intensity can be customised for different facial areas, allowing for a tailored approach to address individual skin concerns, from fine lines to uneven texture.

how does microdermabrasion work?
Microdermabrasion works through a dual-action process of exfoliation and suction. The diamond-tipped wand is gently moved across the skin's surface, effectively removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells and impurities. Simultaneously, the device's suction feature removes the exfoliated particles and stimulates blood flow to the treated area.
This process not only cleanses the skin but also triggers the body's natural healing response, promoting increased cell turnover and increased product absorption. The treatment's intensity can be adjusted to suit different skin types and concerns, allowing for precise targeting of problem areas while maintaining the health of surrounding skin.
