Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive procedure that gently exfoliates the skin to diminish signs of aging.

FAQ

• How long do the results last?
  • The results tend to be temporary. Patients who protect their skin from the sun and follow the recommended skin-care plan will maintain their results for a longer time. 
• How long does the procedure take?
  • It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to treat the entire face and about 20 minutes to treat the neck
