The treatment

Designed around your starting point.

Microdermabrasion buffs away the layer of dead surface cells that makes skin look dull and rough. Product absorbs better afterwards, makeup sits smoother, and the complexion looks immediately brighter.

It is the gentlest resurfacing option on our menu — ideal before an event, as regular maintenance, or as a first step for anyone new to professional skin treatments.

01

Cleanse

Skin is prepped and analyzed.

02

Exfoliate

A controlled abrasive tip lifts dead surface cells.

03

Nourish

Serums and SPF finish the treatment.

Questions

What to expect, how to prepare

Is microdermabrasion safe for sensitive skin?

Generally yes — the abrasion level is adjustable, and we reduce intensity for reactive skin.

How often should I have it?

Every four weeks keeps the complexion consistently clear and bright.

Can I have it before an event?

Yes. It is one of the few treatments with no recovery, though 48 hours ahead is ideal.

Will it help with acne?

It helps with congestion and surface texture. Active inflammatory acne is usually better served by another protocol.
