What This Facial Does

What This Facial Does

This treatment is built around five things clients notice right away.

01

Smoother texture

Surface exfoliation helps buff away roughness so skin feels smoother and softer.

02

Brighter skin

Dull, tired-looking skin gives way to a fresher, more radiant appearance.

03

Refined congestion & pores

Extractions and gentle vacuum work help clear buildup and minimize the look of pores.

04

Polished, resurfaced skin

The diamond-tip pass leaves an even, refined surface.

A refreshed, relaxed feel

The full 90 minutes is designed to feel as good as it looks.

A Note From Your Esthetician

Is This Treatment Right for My Skin?

Every skin is different, and the best way to know if this facial is a good fit for you is a quick conversation with your esthetician. During your consultation, they'll take a look at your skin, talk through your goals, and help you decide whether microdermabrasion or a different treatment is the better choice for you.

What to Expect

What to Expect

Duration

Plan for about 90 minutes in the room.

During

Most clients find the treatment comfortable and relaxing — you'll feel a gentle vacuum sensation as the diamond tip works, and the LED and Gua Sha steps are designed to be soothing.

After

Skin typically looks brighter and feels smoother right away, with mild pinkness that usually settles quickly.

Aftercare

Aftercare

48 Hours

Skip retinoids and acids to let your skin recover.

4–6 Weeks

For best results, most clients book on this cadence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is microdermabrasion worth it?

That depends on your skin and your goals. If you're looking for smoother texture, a brighter appearance, or refined-looking pores as a stand-alone treatment or a regular part of your routine, it's a reasonable option to consider. Your esthetician can help you decide whether it — or a different facial — is the better fit for your skin.

Does microdermabrasion hurt?

Most clients don't find microdermabrasion painful. It's often described as a gentle vacuum or light scratching sensation. It's generally considered one of the more comfortable resurfacing options.

Is there downtime?

Typically very little. Some mild pinkness is common right after the treatment and usually settles quickly, so most clients return to normal activities the same day.

How often should I book it?

Most clients book every 4–6 weeks to maintain results.

Who is it best for?

Anyone dealing with dullness, rough texture, congestion, or pores that look enlarged — see “Who It's Best For” above.

What's the difference between microdermabrasion and hydrodermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion uses a diamond-tip handpiece for mechanical exfoliation. Hydrodermabrasion uses a water-based vortex tip that exfoliates while infusing serum at the same time. Both are resurfacing facials — your esthetician can help you decide which fits your skin best.
