This treatment uses a finely abrasive technique to buff away the outermost layers of the skin, and vacuuming out the dirt, revealing new, glowing, smoother and fresher-looking skin. This treatment can also be used on areas of the body.
Microdermabrasion has been successful in improving:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Small scars

Our machine uses crystal and diamond head techniques so we can choose which is best for your needs.
Skin is first double-cleansed then toned. Next, the hand piece is passed over the skin with crystals or the diamond head whilst vacuum suction removes dirt and debris.
Afterwards various masks or or LED light therapy can be applied as an addition.
