Can I go to work afterwards?
Yes, most patients experience only minor flushing and there is no anaesthesia required. We do ask that you refrain from using make-up on the day of your treatment to give the skin a chance to breath and regenerate itself. Exercise is not recommended for 24 hours post procedure as perspiration contains salt which can cause a stinging sensation.
How soon will I see the results?
After your first treatment your skin will have a fresh, pink glow to it. Improvement will continue throughout the treatment program. The number of treatments to achieve maximum results ranges from two to twelve treatments depending on the type of skin problem. The results are amazing especially for improvement in cystic acne.
How often can I receive treatments?
A course of Microdermabrasion is recommended i.e. One treatment every week for six weeks. This is followed by a maintenance program, whereby a treatment is recommended every 4-6 weeks.
How long are the treatments?
Treatments usually take about 30 minutes depending on the size and depth of the affected area.
