Microdermabrasion

What is a Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is like giving your skin a gentle reset. At Skin Deep Medical Spa, we use the DiamondTome™ Wand, a high-precision tool with natural diamond chips that softly exfoliate your skin. As it works, a vacuum system clears away the dead skin cells, leaving your face smoother, brighter, and ready to glow. This process not only improves texture but also promotes the growth of fresh, healthy skin cells. At our offices in Glenview & Highland Park Microdermabrasion gets the job done without any downtime—so you can head back to your day immediately after treatment.

What results will I see?

Say hello to a fresh, radiant complexion. After just one session, patients often notice their skin feels softer, smoother, and cleaner—like it’s been given a breath of fresh air. You’ll walk away with a gorgeous glow, free from irritation or pesky loose particles.

What aesthetic issues does Microdermabrasion address?

Microdermabrasion is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that can tackle a variety of everyday skin concerns by exfoliating away the outermost layer of dead skin cells. Think of it as polishing your skin to reveal a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion. Here are just some of the issues it can help with:

  • Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Smooths out those early signs of aging by kickstarting collagen production and cell turnover.
  • Uneven Skin Tone: Softens the look of sunspots, age spots, and other pigmentation concerns for a more balanced complexion.
  • Acne and Acne Scars: Clears out clogged pores and helps diminish shallow acne scars over time.
  • Dull, Tired Skin: Revives your natural glow by sloughing off dull, dead skin cells and boosting circulation.
  • Enlarged Pores: Shrinks the appearance of pores, leaving your skin looking refined and polished.
  • Rough Texture: Leaves your skin baby-smooth by addressing dry patches and surface irregularities.

Is Microdermabrasion right for me?

If you’re looking for an effective yet gentle skin treatment, microdermabrasion could be the perfect fit. It works for most skin types and tones and is a favorite for refreshing your skin without any downtime.

You may be a great candidate for microdermabrasion if:

  • You're dealing with mild to moderate concerns like fine lines, uneven tone, or rough texture.
  • You want a quick, non-invasive treatment with no recovery time.
  • Your skin is generally healthy and free from major irritations or infections.
  • You're realistic about results and looking for gradual improvements.

Microdermabrasion may not be suitable for everyone. Avoid this treatment if you:

  • Have active breakouts, cold sores, or other skin infections.
  • Are dealing with severe rosacea, eczema, or overly sensitive skin.
  • Have recently undergone a chemical peel or are on medications like isotretinoin.
  • Have extremely thin or fragile skin that might not handle exfoliation well.

At Skin Deep Medical Spa, we'll evaluate your skin during a consultation to make sure Microdermabrasion is safe and effective for your needs.

How many treatments will I need?

Achieving your dream skin is a journey, and Microdermabrasion works best when done as part of a series. Depending on your skin type and goals, we typically recommend anywhere from four to ten sessions for the best results. Together, we’ll map out a plan that fits your lifestyle and delivers the glowing, polished skin you’ve been looking for.

How will I look after the treatment?

You skin may look slightly flushed after the treatment but should return to normal in ten to thirty minutes. Your skin will look and feel smoother even after the first treatment and will continue to improve with additional treatments.

  • Improvement of sun damaged skin
  • Reduction of acne scarring
  • Hyper-pigmentation reduction
  • Extraction of blackheads & whiteheads
  • Reduction of age spots
  • Improvement in oily skin
