Skin Microdermabrasion Treatment | Saddleridge Medical Clinic

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the mechanical exfoliation of the outermost layer of dead skin cells. The treatment aims to improve the overall texture and tone of the skin, making it a popular option for those seeking a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is microdermabrasion and how does it work?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses a diamond-tipped device or fine crystals to gently exfoliate the outer layer of dead skin. This process promotes new cell growth, unclogs pores, and improves skin texture. It’s commonly used to treat dull skin, fine lines, mild acne scars, and uneven skin tone.

Is microdermabrasion safe for all skin types?

Yes, microdermabrasion is generally safe for all skin types and tones, especially when performed by experienced professionals like those at Saddleridge Medical Clinic. However, if you have active acne, rosacea, or very sensitive skin, we recommend booking a consultation first to ensure it’s the right treatment for you.

What are the benefits of microdermabrasion?

The benefits of microdermabrasion include:

Smoother, more even skin tone
Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Improved acne scarring and age spots
Smaller-looking pores

Brighter, rejuvenated complexion
It’s a quick, effective way to give your skin a fresh start with no downtime.

How many sessions of microdermabrasion will I need?

While many patients see noticeable results after just one session, a series of 4 to 6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart is usually recommended for optimal results. Your provider at Saddleridge Medical Clinic will tailor a treatment plan based on your skin goals.

What should I expect after a microdermabrasion session?

After your treatment, your skin may feel slightly pink and tight — similar to a mild sunburn — but this usually fades within a few hours. It’s important to moisturize and wear sunscreen, as your skin will be more sensitive to sun exposure. Most people return to their normal activities right after the session.
