Acne and acne scarring

What to Expect on the Day of Microdermabrasion

On the day of your procedure, we will help you get settled in one of our well-equipped, private treatment rooms. After your skin has been thoroughly cleansed, we will use the handheld microdermabrasion device to release fine microcrystals onto the skin’s surface. These crystals meticulously polish and exfoliate the skin, leaving behind a more refined, radiant complexion. While treatment is considered painless and tolerable, you may experience a minor vibrating or scratching sensation during your appointment. In general, microdermabrasion does not require a topical anesthetic.

Once your session is complete, we will apply an SPF moisturizer to hydrate and protect your skin from environmental stressors and the elements.

Your Guide to Post-Microdermabrasion Care

Microdermabrasion Recovery

Microdermabrasion is a gentle, non-invasive skincare treatment with no downtime. This is ideal for our busy, active patients in and beyond Newport Beach and the greater Orange County area. Your skin may appear slightly red, and you may feel a tightness after your session, akin to a mild sunburn. However, these symptoms resolve within a few hours.

Make sure to apply sunblock properly to shield your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays after your appointment, as your complexion may be especially sensitive. Certain patients may notice mild peeling. This is simply an indicator that the skin is shedding dead cells. For a few days after your appointment, steer clear of strenuous workouts and exposure to excessive heat.
