MICRODERMABRASION
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a surface-exfoliation treatment. At Inya, a diamond-tip handpiece and controlled suction lift away dead surface skin cells to help skin feel smoother and look fresher.
The treatment works on the skin’s surface. It can help improve the appearance of dullness and uneven surface texture, but it does not remove established acne scars or treat every cause of congestion.
What are the benefits?
Our diamond-tip technique provides physical exfoliation without loose polishing crystals. The intensity is adjusted to your skin and comfort.
Microdermabrasion may suit people seeking smoother-feeling skin and a brighter-looking complexion. Its effects are mainly at the skin’s surface, so deeper scars, persistent acne or other complex concerns may need a different approach. We will discuss realistic benefits and suitable alternatives at your consultation.
How often should you have a treatment?
Treatment frequency depends on your skin, sensitivity, goals and other treatments or active skincare you use. We will discuss whether a single appointment or a spaced course is appropriate, and review how your skin responds. Results and maintenance needs vary.
Skin Treatment
Your treatment combines diamond-tip exfoliation with skincare selected for your needs. Please tell us about sensitivity, active breakouts, irritated or broken skin, recent procedures and relevant medications before treatment. Temporary redness, tightness or sensitivity can occur, so we assess suitability and explain aftercare first.
Post Care Information
After a microdermabrasion service, it’s essential to follow a proper homecare routine to maximize results and promote skin healing. Here are some general recommendations for homecare after a microdermabrasion treatment.
Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser to wash your face. Avoid harsh scrubs or exfoliants for at least a few days to allow the skin to recover.
Hydration is Key: Keep your skin well-hydrated by using a gentle, hydrating moisturizer. Opt for a product that is fragrance-free and specifically formulated for sensitive or post-procedure skin.
Sun Protection: Sun protection is crucial after microdermabrasion. Your skin is more sensitive to UV rays, so apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 before going outdoors. This helps prevent sun damage and ensures the longevity of your results.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Limit your sun exposure, especially during the first few days after the treatment. If possible, stay indoors or wear a wide-brimmed hat when outside.
Skip Harsh Products: Avoid using products containing retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and benzoyl peroxide for a few days post-treatment. These ingredients can be too harsh on freshly exfoliated skin.
Don’t Pick or Scrub: Refrain from picking at your skin or using abrasive scrubs. Let your skin naturally shed dead cells without interference to avoid irritation and potential scarring.
Cool Compress: If your skin feels irritated or inflamed, you can use a cool compress to soothe the area. Ensure the compress is clean and gentle on the skin.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. Hydration is essential for overall skin health and recovery.
