Get answers to common questions about Microdermabrasion Add-On.

Microdermabrasion mechanically exfoliates the superficial skin layers using fine crystals or a diamond tip to remove dead cells, smooth texture, and clear congestion. It refines pores, brightens tone, and enhances serum penetration with immediate, cumulative improvements.

We customize intensity and device settings for sensitive skin, using gentler passes and lower suction to reduce irritation. Temporary redness can occur; a consultation and patch assessment ensure suitability and alternative options when needed.

Downtime is minimal — most clients return to daily activities immediately. Expect mild redness, slight sensitivity, or light flaking for 24–48 hours. Use gentle skincare and sunscreen, and avoid strong exfoliants while skin heals.

Recommended spacing is typically every 2 to 4 weeks depending on skin condition and goals. Your esthetician will tailor the schedule by assessing sensitivity, skin thickness, and desired results for the best cumulative outcome.

It helps reduce mild surface scarring, smooth texture, and lighten superficial pigmentation by promoting cell turnover. Deeper scars or persistent pigment may require combined therapies like peels, microneedling, or lasers for stronger results.

Avoid retinoids, aggressive exfoliants, and excessive sun exposure for several days before treatment. Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, moisturization, strict SPF, and avoiding heat or strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours to support recovery.
