MICRODERMABRASION

Microdermabrasion exfoliates the outermost layer of dead skin to improve texture, tone, and clarity.

Prepare for your microdermabrasion appointment by:

  • Discontinuing the use of retinoids, AHAs/BHAs, and exfoliants for 3–5 days prior.

 

  • Avoiding sun exposure, tanning beds, or sunburn for at least 5–7 days before treatment.

 

  • Skipping waxing or depilatory creams on the treatment area for 5–7 days beforehand.

 

  • Avoiding facial injections (Botox, fillers) for 7 days prior.

 

  • Letting your provider know if you are using any acne or skin-sensitizing medications.

 

  • Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotions, or heavy skincare.

 

Following these steps helps minimize irritation and enhances your skin’s ability to absorb nutrients after exfoliation.
