Most clients feel a gentle abrasive sensation and mild suction; treatments are usually comfortable. You may notice slight tingling or warmth and temporary redness. We adjust intensity for comfort and can pause if you experience discomfort during the session.

Yes — Microdermabrasion is safe for most sensitive and acne-prone skin when performed by experienced technicians. A consultation identifies active breakouts or conditions that may need to be treated first or adjusted to ensure a gentle, effective treatment.

Many clients notice improvement after one session, but a series yields best results. We commonly recommend 4–6 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart for significant reduction in discoloration, fine lines, and texture concerns.

Minor redness, mild swelling, light flaking, and temporary sensitivity are common and resolve within a few days. Sun sensitivity increases, so strict SPF and gentle skincare are essential. Contact us if irritation intensifies or does not improve.

Avoid retinoids, harsh exfoliants, waxing, and strong chemical peels for at least one week before your appointment. Minimize sun exposure and come with clean, makeup-free skin. We’ll review medications and medical history during your consultation.
