Microdermabrasion
What is Microdermabrasion?
At our Glen Carbon, Illinois, medical spa, we use microdermabrasion to remove dead skin cells, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful skin.
This non-invasive exfoliating treatment can also improve oily or dull skin, mild acne scars, mild complexion problems, minimize fine lines, reduce enlarged pores, and unclog pores. Microdermabrasion is suitable for our patients of all skin types who visit from Maryville, Edwardsville, and the metro St. Louis area.
How Does it Work?
A diamond tip microdermabrasion device will gently move across the skin to exfoliate the top layer, while vacuuming the dead skin cells in a controlled manner.
Removing this outer layer of dead skin cells exposes a smoother texture and promotes the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Microdermabrasion also stimulates the collagen beneath the surface of the skin resulting in a healthier and firmer appearance.

What To Expect
Your microdermabrasion appointment will begin with a consultation to ensure Microdermabrasion is the right service for your desired results. The procedure may have a mild scratchy sensation and vibration, but is painless. Normal activities may be resumed immediately after treatment. You can expect to experience softer, smoother, and cleaner skin after the first treatment and your improvements will continue with a series of routine treatments.
