Microdermabrasion at Elite MedAesthetic

Reveal Your Most Radiant Skin

Is your skin feeling dull, uneven, or congested? At Elite MedAesthetic, we specialize in professional Microdermabrasion—a non-invasive, high-performance exfoliation treatment designed to sweep away dead skin cells and reveal the fresh, glowing complexion beneath.

What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a physical exfoliation process that gently “polishes” the outermost layer of the skin. By removing built-up debris and damaged cells, it stimulates natural renewal and enhances the absorption of your favorite skincare products.

Benefits:

What to Expect During Your Visit

  1. Consultation: We analyze your skin to ensure Microdermabrasion is the right fit for your goals.

  2. Deep Cleanse: We prep the skin by removing surface oils and impurities.

  3. The Treatment: Using a specialized wand, we gently exfoliate and vacuum away dead skin. Most clients describe the sensation as a “gritty massage.”

  4. Hydration & Protection: We finish with a soothing serum, high-quality moisturizer, and SPF to protect your fresh skin.

Post-Care & Maintenance

To maintain your results, we recommend a series of 4–6 treatments spaced two weeks apart. After your session:

  • Hydrate: Drink plenty of water and use a gentle moisturizer.

  • Protect: Avoid direct sun exposure and wear SPF 30+ daily.

  • Be Gentle: Skip harsh retinols or acid exfoliants for at least 48 hours.

Why Choose Elite MedAesthetic?

  • Medical-Grade Technology: We use advanced diamond-tip technology for precise, irritation-free results.

  • Certified Expertise: Our treatments are performed by aesthetic professionals who prioritize skin health.

  • Customized Care: Every session is tailored to your specific skin type and sensitivity level.

It is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that uses a medical-grade diamond-tipped wand to gently exfoliate the top layer of dead skin cells. This process reveals the smoother, brighter skin underneath and stimulates blood flow to encourage collagen production.

Not at all. Most clients describe the sensation as a “gritty” or “sandpaper-like” massage. It is generally very comfortable, and we can adjust the suction level to suit your skin’s sensitivity.

Microdermabrasion is a quick and efficient “lunchtime” procedure. A typical session at Elite MedAesthetic takes about 30 to 45 minutes, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule.

You will notice a brighter, smoother complexion after just one visit! However, for long-term concerns like fine lines, acne scarring, or sun damage, we recommend a series of 4 to 6 treatments spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart.

There is zero downtime. You may experience slight redness immediately following the treatment—similar to a mild flush—but this typically fades within an hour or two. You can apply makeup and return to your daily activities immediately.

This treatment is safe for almost all skin types and tones. It is perfect for anyone looking to treat dullness, clogged pores, fine lines, or uneven skin texture. If you have active cystic acne or extremely sensitive rosacea, we may recommend an alternative treatment.

You should stop using Retinol or other prescription exfoliants (like Retin-A) at least 3 to 5 days before your appointment. If you are currently taking Accutane, you must wait at least 6 months after finishing your course before receiving Microdermabrasion.

Please arrive with a clean face if possible. Avoid sunbeds or heavy sun exposure for at least one week prior, and do not have any chemical peels or waxing in the treatment area for at least 7 days before your session.

Microdermabrasion is a physical exfoliation that manually removes dead skin. A chemical peel is a chemical exfoliation that uses acids to dissolve the “glue” between dead skin cells. Both are effective, and our team can help you decide which is best for your specific skin goals.

Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, so wearing SPF 30+ is essential. Stick to a gentle cleanser and moisturizer for the first 48 hours, and avoid swimming in chlorinated pools or using harsh scrubs for a few days.
