Microdermabrasion Treatment Potomac

At Atlantis Medical Wellness Center, a Microdermabrasion Treatment Potomac residents turn to for quality facial care is a popular approach for skin wellness. This treatment is often performed at a dermatologist office, skin spa, or salon. If you have never had one before, you may be asking yourself what happens during such a treatment. Such as, how long is the session? Does it hurt? And what should you expect afterwards? Here we have answered a few of the most-asked inquiries about microdermabrasion! 

What does microdermabrasion do for the skin?

Microdermabrasion treatments are utilized to exfoliate the skin. During a session, micro-fine crystals get expelled from a small tube and onto the skin, while at the same time vacuuming it back up. It is almost like a high-powered scrub. There is also a version of microdermabrasion that does not entail crystals, and instead uses a diamond-tipped end to exfoliate the skin. There are many benefits that microdermabrasion offers the skin, such as:

  • Leaves skin looking radiant
  • Skin feels smooth to the touch
  • Skin texture and tone can improve
  • Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
  • Helps repair damage from sun exposure 
  • Reduce acne and acne scars
  • Minimizes the appearance of stretch marks

How long is one microdermabrasion skin treatment?

The Microdermabrasion Potomac Treatment is fairly quick, it only takes approximately 15-30 minutes. Your skin technician will show you to the treatment room, and ask that you change into a provided gown, and lie down on the padded bed. The first steps involve cleansing the skin as a way to prep it for the microdermabrasion tool. To finish the treatment, the technician will cleanse your face a second time to clean away any stay crystals and dead skin cells. We may suggest following up your appointment with a sunscreen or moisturizer. 

How much is a treatment going to cost me?

This all depends on where you get your microdermabrasion skin treatment. The cost can range between $75-$300, however, you may want to be wary of clinics that offer a price that is too inexpensive. But, this also does not necessarily mean that the highest cost will be the best either. Our pricing has been calculated to match the needs of our community so they can receive skin care that is quality and affordable. 

How many microdermabrasion treatments should I get?

The number of treatments you need will depend on what your skin care goals are. Do you have a condition where you are prone to redness and breakouts? Or, do you just want to enjoy some self-care and treat yourself to a day at a spa? One treatment session will leave your face looking brighter and very soft. But if you struggle with acne, wrinkles, scars, etc., then you may want more than one treatment to yield the long-term results you are looking for.
