MICRODERMABRASION EXPLAINED
What is Crystal Clear Microdermabrasion?
Crystal Clear Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive facial exfoliation treatment designed to remove the uppermost layer of dead skin cells and refresh the appearance of the skin.
During treatment, a specialist handheld device passes ultra-fine crystals across the surface of the skin. These gently exfoliate the outer layer while a controlled vacuum simultaneously removes the used crystals and loosened skin debris.
Think of it as a controlled professional polish for the skin — more intensive than everyday cleansing, but without needles or deliberately breaking the skin.
Microdermabrasion is commonly chosen by people looking to improve the appearance of dullness, uneven skin tone or texture, enlarged-looking pores, blackheads, fine lines and superficial pigmentation.
A FRESHER-LOOKING COMPLEXION
Why Choose Microdermabrasion?
01
Smoother Skin Texture
By removing the build-up of surface-level dead skin cells, microdermabrasion can leave the skin feeling noticeably softer and smoother.
02
Brighter-Looking Skin
Professional exfoliation can help revive a dull-looking complexion and reveal fresher-looking skin beneath the surface.
03
Pores & Blackheads
Microdermabrasion may help make enlarged-looking pores and blackheads less noticeable as part of a wider professional skincare routine.
04
Uneven Tone & Fine Lines
A course of treatments may improve the appearance of minor surface concerns including uneven tone, superficial dark marks and fine lines.
YOUR APPOINTMENT
What Happens During Microdermabrasion?
01
Skin Consultation
Your appointment starts with a discussion about your skin, current skincare routine, any relevant conditions or medication and what you’d like to improve. This helps us determine whether microdermabrasion is suitable for your skin before treatment begins.
02
Cleanse & Prepare
The skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepared so that makeup, oil and surface impurities do not interfere with the treatment.
03
Crystal Microdermabrasion
The Crystal Clear handheld device is moved systematically across the treatment area. Ultra-fine crystals gently exfoliate the surface while controlled suction simultaneously lifts away the crystals and loosened dead skin cells.
04
Finish & Aftercare
Once the exfoliation is complete, your skin is checked and appropriate finishing skincare is applied.
05
What to Expect After Microdermabrasion
There is generally little to no significant downtime following microdermabrasion. Your skin may temporarily appear slightly pink or feel more sensitive than usual following treatment. Some people can also experience mild dryness or temporary sensitivity. Because freshly exfoliated skin can be more sensitive to sunlight, good sun protection is particularly important following your appointment. Your practitioner will provide aftercare specific to your skin, but you may be advised to temporarily avoid strong acids, retinoids, harsh exfoliation and other potentially irritating products
MICRODERMABRASION THERAPY FAQS
Questions About Microdermabrasion
What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that gently exfoliates the uppermost layer of the skin. Crystal microdermabrasion uses very fine crystals to loosen surface-level dead skin cells while a vacuum removes the crystals and exfoliated material.
Does microdermabrasion hurt?
Microdermabrasion shouldn’t normally be painful. You may notice a light scratching, sanding or suction sensation as the device moves across the skin. Your practitioner can adjust the treatment according to your comfort and skin sensitivity.
Is microdermabrasion good for blackheads and pores?
Microdermabrasion may help make blackheads and enlarged-looking pores less noticeable by exfoliating the surface of the skin and removing accumulated dead skin cells. It does not permanently change the natural size of your pores.
Does microdermabrasion get rid of acne scars?
Microdermabrasion is not a treatment for deeper acne scarring. It may improve overall skin tone and help with the appearance of some superficial dark marks left after acne, but clients looking to address actual acne scars may be better suited to treatments such as microneedling or another professional treatment following assessment.
Is there downtime after microdermabrasion?
There is usually little to no significant downtime. Some people experience temporary redness, mild swelling, sensitivity or dryness following treatment, which typically settles relatively quickly.
How many microdermabrasion sessions do I need?
There isn’t one treatment schedule that suits everybody. Some clients choose a single facial for exfoliation and a refreshed appearance, while others have a course of treatments where they are addressing ongoing concerns such as uneven tone or texture. Your skin and how it responds to your first treatment should guide the recommended frequency.
What's the difference between microdermabrasion and microneedling?
Microdermabrasion exfoliates the outermost surface of the skin and does not deliberately puncture it. Microneedling uses very fine sterile needles to create controlled microscopic punctures within the skin, triggering a different repair and remodelling response. Microneedling is therefore a more advanced treatment and normally requires more specific aftercare.
