Microdermabrasion

Revitalize Your Skin with Microdermabrasion at the Center for Surgical Dermatology & Dermatology Associates


Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to improve the texture and appearance of your skin. This treatment involves the mechanical exfoliation of the outermost layer of skin using a specialized device, effectively removing dead skin cells and revealing a fresher, more radiant complexion.

This procedure can help address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin tone, leaving your skin smoother and more youthful-looking.

What to Expect at Your Microdermabrasion Appointment

Your microdermabrasion appointment at Pinnacle Dermatology is designed to be efficient, comfortable, and tailored to your skin goals. Each phase of the visit is carefully guided by a skincare professional to ensure safe treatment and optimal results.

Before Treatment

Before your treatment begins, you’ll have a consultation to discuss your skin concerns, goals, and medical history. Your provider will review your current skincare routine and any previous cosmetic treatments, cleanse your skin to remove makeup or dirt, and explain the procedure so you know exactly what to expect.

During Treatment

The treatment itself typically lasts 30–45 minutes and involves gentle exfoliation using fine crystals or a diamond-tipped device. Your skincare professional will move the device across your skin in controlled patterns, targeting specific areas while minimizing discomfort. No anesthesia is required.

After Treatment

After your session, you can return to normal activities right away. Your provider will share post-treatment skincare guidance to help protect and maintain your results, including the importance of daily sunscreen use while your skin renews.

Microdermabrasion Maintenance Recommendations

Proper aftercare and a consistent treatment plan help maximize the benefits of microdermabrasion. Following your appointment, you’ll receive personalized skincare instructions that may include limiting sun exposure, using gentle products, and avoiding activities that could irritate the skin as it renews. 

Microdermabrasion Maintenance Schedule

Depending on your goals, your Pinnacle Dermatology provider may recommend a series of microdermabrasion treatments to achieve and maintain optimal results. They will also provide guidance on treatment frequency and complementary services that can further support your skin health.
