Microdermabrasion FAQs
-
Microdermabrasion is a well established exfoliation procedure that gently removes the old and dead skin cells from the outer layer of skin . The treatment uses tiny crystals that break up these cells to reveal the smoother, softer skin underneath.
The crystals are gently buffed into the skin using a moveable handheld suction device.
