Microdermabrasion is available at our Adelaide clinic. Consultations are recommended to assess individual skin needs and determine appropriate treatment options.
All treatments at our clinic follow strict safety and consent protocols. During your consultation, your cosmetic nurse will discuss suitability, potential side effects and recovery time in person. This allows you to make an informed decision about your treatment.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin treatment available at our Adelaide clinic.
The procedure involves controlled exfoliation of the outer layer of the skin using a specialised device. This process is performed by a trained professional as part of a personalised treatment plan.
During your consultation, suitability, potential risks, and expected outcomes will be discussed based on your individual skin concerns.
Treatment frequency varies depending on individual needs and will be determined by your clinician.
This treatment works to removes those cant-even-see dead skin cells that result in congested skin. The treatment is undertaken with a diamond tip wand, gently exfoliating and stimulating the blood flow of your skin.
Microdermabrasion treatments are typically spaced out every 2 to 4 weeks for optimal results, with some individuals needing more frequent sessions initially. After an initial course of treatments, monthly or bi-monthly maintenance sessions are often recommended to maintain the benefits. The exact frequency depends on individual skin type, concerns, and the specific treatment plan designed by a skin professional, your nurse.
Microdermabrasion risks are usually minor, including temporary redness, swelling, and dryness, but can involve infection, bruising, or skin discoloration, especially for darker skin tones. Serious complications like scarring or hyperpigmentation are rare but possible, particularly if done too aggressively or with poor aftercare, with pre-existing conditions like rosacea or herpes also posing risks. Proper technique by a trained professional minimizes these risks, but individuals should avoid it with active infections, open sores, or certain skin conditions.
Treatment times are typically anywhere between 10-30 minutes.
Clients will notice the difference of a microdermabrasion treatment straight after their first session!
We advise our clients to have monthly Microdermabrasion appointments to maintain their healthy, glowing skin. Popular treatment combinations with Microdermabrasion include bundling with a monthly skin peel and LED light treatments for optimal results.
Clients will be able to return to work and life activities straight away, though some people experience temporary redness, like a mild sunburn, for a few hours to a couple of days, requiring good sun protection and gentle skincare. Expect skin to feel softer, but avoid harsh exfoliants and intense sun exposure for a short period.
Warning:
Individual results may vary. All cosmetic procedures carry risks which need to be discussed with a cosmetic doctor. It is always recommended to also seek a second opinion from a qualified health practitioner.
