Q:What is a microdermabrasion?

A: Microdermabrasion is a quick and convenient procedure that is very popular with patients who have early signs of aging, sun exposure, and other facial imperfections. Microdermabrasion is a closed vacuum system that delivers aluminum oxide crystals to the skin to aggressively exfoliate away the dull layer of dead skin, smooth and re-texturize the skin, and leave it soft and glowing. A vacuum then suctions away the exfoliated cells and crystals from your skin’s surface.
