Microdermabrasion Treatment

Discover Smoother, Healthier Skin– No Downtime Required

If you’re craving a fresh-faced glow, a microdermabrasion facial might just be your new skincare secret. At The Spa at Wellington, we’re proud to offer this non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment to help you discover softer, more radiant skin— without the discomfort or downtime of more aggressive procedures. 

Whether you’re dealing with stubborn blackheads, acne scars, or just feel like your skin has lost its glow, microdermabrasion is an innovative solution designed with every skin texture and tone in mind.

What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, FDA-approved cosmetic procedure that gently exfoliates the outermost layer of skin using a specialized device. Think of it as a deep polish for your face (or neck, chest, hands— wherever you need to refresh). This treatment clears away dead skin cells, encourages cell turnover, and reveals brighter, smoother skin underneath. 

Microdermabrasion helps improve:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation and age spots
  • Acne and mild acne scars
  • Enlarged pores and blackheads
  • Stretch marks
  • Sun damage and dull texture

And yes, it’s safe for most skin tones and types. During your consultation, we’ll make sure you’re a good candidate.

How Microdermabrasion Works

Our licensed skincare professionals perform microdermabrasion in-office, with treatment sessions typically lasting 30-45 minutes. We use an advanced Diamond-Tipped method to treat your unique skin needs:

Diamond-Tip Handpiece

A diamond-tipped wand gently abrades the surface of your skin, kind of like a high-end exfoliator with precision power. Dead skin cells are simultaneously suctioned away, leaving your skin polished and refreshed.

Benefits of Microdermabrasion

  • What does microdermabrasion do? What are the benefits? Here’s what you can look forward to:

    • Brighter, more even skin tone
    • Softer texture and refined pores
    • Reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
    • Less visible acne scars and stretch marks
    • Zero downtime and instant results
    • Safe for all skin tones

    In fact, many clients report that their skin feels smoother immediately after microdermabrasion, and they notice visible improvements in tone and texture within a few days.

Who is a Good Candidate for Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is typically considered a safe and effective treatment for most skin types and tones, but it is recommended for individuals looking to address concerns like uneven tone and texture, fine lines, wrinkles, and mild acne scars. 

Microdermabrasion is suitable for most people, but it’s not ideal for everyone. 

You may not be a good candidate if you have:

  • Active rosacea, acne, or open sores
  • Psoriasis or Lupus
  • Uncontrolled diabetes
  • Fragile capillaries or broken blood vessels

Don’t worry— our team will discuss your skin history during your consultation and help you decide what’s best for you.

What to Expect During Microdermabrasion

No numbing. No discomfort. No stress. 

During your session, you’ll relax in a comfortable setting while your aesthetic professional uses a specialized handheld device to exfoliate the targeted area. 

Here’s the step-by-step:

  1. The device gently sands or sprays away dead skin cells
  2. A suction mechanism vacuums away the debris
  3. Your skin is treated with a moisturizer and SPF to finish the session

That’s it! You’re free to go about your day. Many clients search for microdermabrasion near me because they want that “lunchtime glow-up” with little to no recovery time. 

After your session, you may experience mild tenderness, redness, or slight swelling—don’t worry—these typically subside within a few hours. Minor bruising can occasionally occur due to the suction involved, but a gentle moisturizer will help soothe and reduce dryness and flaking.

Microdermabrasion Aftercare & Recovery

While side effects are typically minimal and short-lived, proper aftercare can help maximize your results and keep your skin feeling its best. In the days following treatment, we recommend:

There’s virtually no downtime — you can even reapply makeup the next day.

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQs) - Microdermabrasion
