Microdermabrasion: Everything You Should Know

Have you been wanting to rejuvenate the texture of your skin? Do you want your face to have a timeless glow that brings your natural beauty to the forefront? If so, chances are microdermabrasion treatment is the procedure you’ve been looking for. Here at Ava Laser Clinic, we want to talk about this beauty treatment in detail so you can better determine whether or not this procedure is the right fit for you. 

Who is This Treatment For? 

Microdermabrasion is known as a very safe procedure for the majority of skin types and shades. If you have the following skin issues, chances are you will greatly benefit from this treatment: 

• Fine lines/wrinkles 
• Melasma 
• Sun damage 
• Blackheads and enlarged pores 
• Acne scars & breakouts 
• An uneven skin texture 
• Hyperpigmentation 
• Stretch marks 
• And More! 

If you are dealing with skin issues and want further answers on whether or not this treatment is right, contacting our professionals will help. 

The Price 

On average, microdermabrasion will cost about $150-$200 per session (this average does not include taxes + additional fees). In general, the cost of this procedure will fluctuate depending on the clinic you decide to work with. While it may be tempting to initially choose a clinic that offers this treatment for a cheaper price, always be cautious and find a clinic that is well experienced and highly professional (such as our clinic here at Ava Laser Clinic).  

Preparation For Microdermabrasion 

Since microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure, there’s little you need to do in terms of preparation. Some of the things you may be asked to do include avoiding exposure to the sun, tanning creams and waxing about a week prior to the appointment. In addition, you may be advised against using any harsh exfoliants on the determined treatment area a few days before the procedure as well. Be sure to also remove any makeup you have on your face before the procedure begins. You will want to come in with a clear base so the treatment can be done properly and safely. 

What To Expect After 

The good news is that there is little to no downtime for this type of treatment. As a matter of fact, most (if not all) individuals who get this procedure done can get back to their day as usual right after treatment. What professionals will recommend, however, is that you keep your skin hydrated during the week after your treatment. In addition to this, if you are going to be outside under the sun, always wear SPF sun protection. During this time your skin will be at a much more vulnerable state, so it’s important that the skin’s barrier is thick, moisturized and free from any harsh acne creams or exfoliants for at least a few days after your treatment.
