What is microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that uses a specialized device to exfoliate the surface of your skin. Depending on the treatment, Elizabeth may use a diamond-tipped wand or another exfoliating method to remove dead skin cells and surface debris.

The treatment is designed to be gentle, and most people describe the sensation as a light scratching, suctioning, or vibrating feeling rather than pain. Because microdermabrasion works primarily on your skin’s surface, it typically requires little to no downtime.

How can microdermabrasion boost my beauty routine?

Think of microdermabrasion as a professional exfoliation treatment that can boost your skincare routine. Removing accumulated dead skin cells can leave your complexion feeling softer and looking smoother and more radiant.

Microdermabrasion may improve the appearance of common skin concerns, including:

• Dullness
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Age spots
• Enlarged pores
• Blackheads
• Mild acne scarring
• Fine lines
• Sun-related skin changes

It can also complement your existing skincare routine. By exfoliating the outermost layer of skin, microdermabrasion may help topical skincare products penetrate more easily. 

Colorado boasts world-famous beauty, but more intense UV rays, low humidity, and harsh winters can dull your skin. You can enjoy all that Denver has to offer, stress-free, with professional care at Eli & Co. Aesthetics.

Microdermabrasion provides smoother, fresher-looking skin without the significant downtime associated with more intensive resurfacing treatments. Elizabeth can recommend a schedule based on your skin, goals, and results from a series of treatments.

What happens during and after a microdermabrasion treatment?

Elizabeth cleanses and prepares your skin, then uses the microdermabrasion device to exfoliate the treatment area. A full-face treatment commonly takes 30-40 minutes.

Afterward, your skin may look slightly pink or red and may feel a little sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn or windburn. These effects generally resolve quickly, and most people can return to their normal activities right away.

Elizabeth recommends a gentle skincare routine and, more importantly, consistent sun protection following treatment.

If you’re ready to reveal a smoother, brighter-looking complexion, microdermabrasion may be the refreshing addition your skincare routine has been missing. Call Eli & Co. Aesthetics or book your microdermabrasion consultation online today.
