SkinBase Microdermabrasion can help improve the appearance of congested, blemish-prone skin. Find out how it works and whether it is suitable for your skin.

SkinBase Microdermabrasion can help improve the appearance of congested, blemish-prone skin by exfoliating dead skin cells and smoothing uneven texture.

What Is SkinBase Microdermabrasion?

SkinBase Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive exfoliating treatment. A handheld wand applies fine crystals to the skin, while a vacuum removes the crystals and loosened dead skin cells. The treatment can leave skin looking smoother and more radiant.

How Can Microdermabrasion Help Blemish-Prone Skin?

A build-up of dead skin cells can contribute to the appearance of congestion and uneven texture. Microdermabrasion removes surface dead skin cells, making it an option for people concerned about dullness, clogged pores, roughness and blackheads. If you have acne, your SkinBase therapist will assess your skin and avoid active or inflamed areas.

What About Acne Marks and Scarring?

Acne can leave different types of marks, including changes in skin colour and indented scars. Microdermabrasion may help improve the appearance of surface texture, as the crystals exfoliate the skin. Your SkinBase therapist can talk through what you would like to improve and whether this treatment is appropriate for your skin.

Is Microdermabrasion Right for You?

If your main concerns are blackheads, congestion or uneven skin texture, SkinBase Microdermabrasion may be worth exploring. Your therapist will assess your skin and tailor the treatment to you.
