Microdermabrasion is safe and effective for all skin types and conditions. However, those with active acne, rosacea, or skin infections may want to hold off on therapy for a while. Whether you want to know whether microdermabrasion is suitable for you, it's best to talk to a dermatologist.

Depending on the size of the treated region and the depth of the procedure, a single microdermabrasion session might take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. The number of treatments needed is dependent on the severity of the problem and the intended objective. The best benefits usually come from a course of four to six sessions spread out over a few weeks. As-needed maintenance appointments may be made.

Microdermabrasion is a mild, non-invasive procedure with few if any known adverse effects and no recovery time. In the hours and days after the procedure, some patients may feel brief redness, minor irritation, or light flaking of the skin. To promote adequate healing and preservation of the treated skin, it is crucial to adhere to the post-treatment guidelines offered by our YHVH Medical Aesthetic Staff.
