What Is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical skin resurfacing treatment that gently exfoliates the outermost layer of dead skin cells using fine crystals and vacuum suction. At Dermaluxe Spa, we use the advanced Dermaglow® crystal microdermabrasion system to remove dead skin cells and debris, refine uneven skin texture and tone, and improve the appearance of fine lines, sun damage, age spots, and mild acne scars. The exfoliation process also helps unclog pores, improve product absorption, stimulate circulation, and promote healthy cell renewal, revealing smoother, brighter, more youthful-looking skin. Suitable for a variety of skin types, microdermabrasion is a quick, non-invasive treatment with little to no downtime.

Dermaglow®

The Dermaglow® microdermabrasion treatment begins with a double deep cleanse to remove oil, makeup, and impurities. Next, we resurface the skin with a customizable intensity.

To enhance results, we include soothing serums, customized masks, and targeted treatments to hydrate and soothe. This non-invasive, no-downtime treatment leaves your skin fresh and radiant. Regular sessions help maintain a smooth, youthful complexion.

FAQs

Is microdermabrasion painful?

Microdermabrasion is generally a painless procedure. You may experience a mild scraping or tingling sensation as the treatment exfoliates your skin, but it is typically well-tolerated with minimal discomfort. The intensity can also be easily adjusted.

How many sessions do I need?

The number of microdermabrasion treatments you need depends on your skin goals. We typically recommend starting with a series of 3 sessions, followed by monthly maintenance for optimal results.

Is there any downtime after the procedure?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive treatment with little to no downtime. Some clients may experience mild redness or sensitivity immediately after the procedure, similar to a slight sunburn, but this typically subsides within a few hours. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise or activities that cause excessive sweating on the first day, as sweat may cause irritation. You can resume your normal activities right away, but it’s essential to protect your skin with sunscreen, as it will be more sensitive to the sun.

Who is a good candidate for microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is suitable for most skin types and can help improve concerns such as uneven skin tone and texture, dull or congested skin, fine lines, mild wrinkles, minor acne scars, enlarged pores, and hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage. However, it is not recommended for individuals with cystic acne, extremely sensitive skin, or certain skin conditions, as the exfoliation process may cause further irritation. If you’re unsure whether microdermabrasion is right for you, a consultation can help determine the best treatment for your skin’s needs.

How do I prepare before my appointment?

One of the greatest benefits of the microdermabrasion treatment is that it’s suitable for almost every skin type and color. There’s no need to prepare; simply come in without makeup (preferably) and relax while our professionals smooth away the outer layer of your skin.

Can I wear makeup after microdermabrasion?

It’s best to wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup to allow your skin time to heal and breathe. If you must wear makeup, choose lightweight, non-comedogenic products to avoid irritation. Hydration and SPF protection are key after the treatment.

When should you avoid microdermabrasion?

Yes, certain conditions may prevent or delay treatment. Please inform us if any of the following apply to you:

Cystic acne or inflamed breakouts
Active skin infections, such as cold sores or herpes
Rosacea or skin prone to redness and inflammation
Extremely sensitive skin that reacts easily
Recent chemical peels or laser treatments (within the last 2 weeks)
Sunburn or recently tanned skin
Open wounds, cuts, or broken skin in the treatment area
Eczema, psoriasis, or other chronic skin conditions
Dermatitis or any severe skin sensitivity
Pregnancy (for precautionary reasons)
Recent Botox or dermal fillers (within the last 14 days)

These conditions may increase the risk of irritation or affect the outcome of your treatment. If you’re unsure whether you’re a good candidate, we recommend scheduling a consultation first.

Kashia and Carlos are the best! Kashia did my microblading removal and it was such an easy process. She was very informative beforehand and made the process feel like a breeze. Certainly considering having her do a fresh set of powder brows once they heal. Carlos did my facial as I've been struggling with some of my skin issues and my skin has NEVER looked so good!! Will be back for sure! Editing to add: came back for a different service this time - eyebrow wax. I needed them cleaned up, and Carlos heard me out about my insecurity with my bald spot on my brow. He mentioned I have enough hair that if Im up for trying lamination, he could shape them so that my bald spot isnt as noticeable with the hairs I have. GUYS!!!! When I say that he is a magician, I MEAN IT! A bald spot that I've had since I was 5 is somehow filled in with my brow hairs!! I never knew how to shape them and always just filled them in with brow powders and product, but he has changed that. I literally broke down in happy tears!! Thank you!!

I was referred to Dermalux Spa by a friend and could not be happier with the results. Kaisha did an amazing job on my eyebrows. I have always wanted to get permanent eyebrows, as mine are very thin, but was afraid. I highly recommend going to Dermalux! My eyebrows look so natural that my friends had no idea I had them done. Now I don't have to draw them on and worry about reapplying throughout the day. Also, I have had 2 facials by Carlos and will be going back regularly. He is amazing! Thank you both for the great services.

Absolutely love it here. Been coming for years!! Kasia is an amazing artist and Carlos’s facials are magical…I’m obsessed with the green peel and the microderm. Also started doing electrolysis there because perimenopause is doing this cutie little thing where I started sprouting chin hairs and it’s such a relief having them zapped and obliterated! Highly recommend!

I recently visited Dermaluxe for Microdermabrasion facial. This was my first time having services at this location and was a bit apprehensive, but excited at the same time. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming and incredibly relaxing. My Esthetician 'Carlos' was exceptionally kind, attentive, and made me feel comfortable right away. The service itself was outstanding! My skin felt noticeably smoother, healthier, and genuinely rejuvenated, an absolute 100% improvement. The level of care Carlos provided exceeded my expectations. It's clear Dermaluxe takes pride in delivering high-quality services with great results. I highly recommend Dermaluxe! They have a wide variety of services available to meet all of your skincare needs. If you're ready for a refreshing, transformative skincare experience book your appointment today. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. I will certainly be returning regularly.

First class and responsive. I have had several procedures mainly micro needling and facials and was super impressed with the office and staff.

I highly recommend Dermaluxe Spa! I have been very pleased with all three of my recent visits. Initially, I had some acne scar treatment on my neck. I had white scar like blotches on my neck, which Kashia treated, and they disappeared, blending in with my skin tone! I am sure choosing the exact color is difficult, but she is a true artist! Even though the skin on my neck is more delicate, with her careful professionalism, she was able to match my skin tone perfectly! If you have any scarring, she can address your concerns. I was so happy with my results, I scheduled another appointment to have age spots on my hands taken off. Although the process was different for covering my scars, and removing the age spots, neither was painful at all! I am completely confident Kashia can help you achieve your goals. Oh and one more thing, I also had Kashia touch up my eyebrows, which I had micro-bladed years ago. I thought I may have to have some color removed from old microblading, but again, she picked the perfect color, and left me with very natural looking brows. The atmosphere of the Spa is very clean and relaxing. Parking was convenient, and also free! I parked underneath the building and took the elevator to the 2nd floor, where her Spa is located. I would love to have her assistant Carlos do a lash lift or a facial, as I have seen his work on other clients while I have been there, and was very impressed. Definitely 5 out of 5 stars, Thank you Kashia!

This place was wonderful! When I went in for a consultation, Kashia was so kind, sweet, and helpful. Then when I went back for my facial, Carlos was an absolute angel! He was so great, addressed all my skin concerns, and left my face glowy and smooth. Totally would recommend for the great atmosphere, kind staff, and wonderful results.
