What
are the benefits of Medical Microdermabrasion?
- Thorough exfoliation

- Skin feels softer and smoother

How many treatments are recommended
for optimum results?
We recommend a course of 4 - 6 treatments performed weekly or
fortnightly, depending on the skin condition, though the result
after just one treatment is an immediate enhanced skin appearance.
You will notice prolonged results and improvements in many areas
such as the evenness and pore size reduction of the skin after
a course of treatments.
What areas of the body can be treated
with microdermabrasion?
Treatments can be performed on the face, neck, décolletage, chest,
back, arms and most areas of the body. At Face Today we believe
that a combination of skin treatments is most effective and we
can tailor a clinical skin regime for you with a combination
of Microdermabrasion and some of our other skin treatments such
as peels, infusions or IPL.
What kind of results can I expect?
Usually you will notice an immediate improvement in your skin’s
texture and appearance. Acne scars will become more refined
depending on the number of treatments. Patients report that
their skin looks softer, smoother and younger looking. It’s
also a great treatment to have a day or two before a big event
as your skin will glow and make-up applies a lot smoother and
even on the skin.
How long are the treatments?
Treatments usually take about 40 minutes depending on the patients
needs. We also offer a Delux Microdermabrasion which takes
one hour. You can decide after you have an informed consultation
with one of our highly trained medical staff.
Is Microdermabrasion safe?
Microdermabrasion is a very safe and gentle process because it
only removes the outermost layer of the epidermal layer of
the skin. There are very few risks to microdermabrasion, although
changes in pigmentation (usually areas of increased pigmentation)
are possible - usually in those with darker skin types.
What are the benefits of Microdermabrasion
over other procedures?
Microdermabrasion takes less time to do, there is little discomfort and recovery
time is relatively quick with no disruption to normal activities. Microdermabrasion
is suitable for all skin types.
Who are the best candidates for
Microdermabrasion treatments?
Almost anyone can have Microdermabrasion, both men and women
- Pregnant women
- It’s ideal for those who can’t afford any
down time
- It’s ideal for young teenage problem skins
- Younger congested
skin or skin showing the first signs of ageing and sun damage
