When we’re discussing spa care, it’s all about upkeep, and specialized skin services should not be a one-time thing. That said, you don’t have to break the bank to have healthy, glowing skin! Last month we covered facials, why you would want one and when you should get them. This week we are talking microdermabrasion. If you have never experienced this amazing service, you may be imagining someone taking a sander to your face. We are here to reassure you that this is not the case AT ALL. Microdermabrasion is a great way to jump into spring with a fresh face!

What is microdermabrasion?

We know the name sounds painful, anything with abrasion added to it is something that might make you shy away. Not to worry. Microdermabrasion exfoliates your skin, removing dead skin and helping to give skin a more event skin tone. It does not cause pain, though your skin may be a little sensitive immediately after a treatment.

Why would I want to have microdermabrasion performed on me?

First, if you have decided to take advantage of the magic that is a refreshing facial, then microdermabrasion can boost the results of that skin service. It can provide improvements for a dull complexion, age spots, dark spots, melasma (brown to gray-brown patches) and uneven skin tone. This is a less invasive and no downtime alternative to more intense skin treatments. Ask about our Lunch Time Micro!

When should I get microdermabrasion done?

If you’ve noticed uneven skin tone and would like to even it out, a series of microdermabrasion sessions with a knowledgeable esthetician can help. The schedule that you choose will be determined by the results you would like to see, as well as how many sessions you might need to achieve those results. Discussion with your esthetician is the best way to come up with the ideal schedule for your personal needs.
