Microdermabrasion Results



	Skin will feel smoother immediately following the treatment
	Microdermabrasion improves the penetration of topical therapies
	Texture and feel will improve

What to Expect

Following a microdermabrasion session the skin will typically feel immediately smoother. The removal of the stratum corneum makes the delivery of topical therapies much easier for a number of conditions by removing the skin's natural barrier to such products and increasing their penetration. Therefore I often use microdermabrasion as a product delivery device.

In addition microdermabrasion increases cell turnover as our skin naturally begins to rebuild our outer layers. This will improve the superficial look and texture of our skin as well.
